I took leave today. I did me-care things. Nails. Opted for 'boring' nails. I love it. It's beautifully classic. Massage. Swedish and some drainage. I learnt a few things. CvdW knows what she does. Waxes. Ms MA is quick and thorough! Life coach. AL and I had a beautiful conversation full of crossing lines and … Continue reading 2024 | page 60 of 366 | leap year day

2024 | page 58 | someone else for a day? nay!
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why? The only person I would want to be for a day is me 20 years ago. There is one choice which I would consider changing. Of course, the direction and experiences of my life would be completely different. Why? You … Continue reading 2024 | page 58 | someone else for a day? nay!

2024 | page 56 of 366 | work prep Sundays
I like to prep my mind and body for work on a Sunday evening. Mind ... quiet. No tv, just music. Body ... relax... a bath ... hair done. Sometimes salsa.

Bras. After mammograms. The next best topic. 🙂 A topic we spend too little time on. We do not educate about the importance of bras enough - to everyone.

Have you ever had a mammogram done? Another thing our bodies have to go through. The stretching, pulling, flattening of breasts to have it checked out.
