Day 25 of My Midlife Sabbatical

This morning routine of mine seems to be working so I share it here. Then, as 3 of my skin products ran out at the same time, I chat a little about products and how I choose what to buy and try. A brunch with 3 of my besties has me contemplating how life moves…

Day 22 of My Midlife Sabbatical

Sometimes we just need something different. I haven’t liked my hair in a long time. I’ve went blond to hide grey and rarely liked it. If it was a color I loved, my hair was brittle and snapped off. If it was less brittle, it was usually a golden yellow which did NOT blend grey’s…

Day 20 of My Midlife Sabbatical

Break the Rules -Style

It makes me cringe when I hear or read that over 40’s shouldn’t…..you fill in the gap here. (wear a short skirt or their hair long, go dancing at a night club or have tattoos) What over 40’s shouldn’t… is give a crap about anyones rules for them. I seriously grew up thinking this rubbish….

No More Diets for Me.

This is me! Post Covid-19 Quarantine. No gym, No diet plan, No carefully curated before and after picture. Just me, in my pj’s, feeling content with life. You see the thing is, for the past 20 years, I’ve either been “on a diet”, just finished a diet or am in need of going “on a…

Aesthetics-Where to start

In an ideal world, we’d all have had a top notch skin care routine and regular visits to the med spa since our mid 20’s but to be honest, most 40 somethings weren’t taking selfies all day as our face morphed into our mothers so we didn’t notice the need for such things until one…
