Night time... Where horror movies are inspired and where we're spooked not to sleep fearing the boogeyman will come. Night time is the hardest for me and has been since day 1. I see my version of the boogeyman every night via visions I can't get out of my head and soft tears I can't dry up.
Keeping busy is a double edged sword. It keeps me occupied which is good, but I usually end up quite exhausted or sore which isn't so good. My version of the playground teeter totter, which end do I want to be on today? Shall I ride high and risk a thump of a landing, or should I hang out in the sand where it's safe and has an easy dismount?
I was watching the TV show The Social the other day and they had a beauty segment concentrating on wrinkles, one specifically about a woman's neck. As many of you know I was a Cosmetics Manager and have always loved beauty, so as soon the segment was over and the "need to do" info was stored in my brain, I marched right in to my bathroom and pulled out all my lotions & potions. I knew I had cream specifically for the neck & I found it. I checked out my neck and thought not too bad, but could be better. I can't wear as much makeup due to hyperbaric safety regulations, so heck yes I'll at least have glowing skin and a smooth looking neck. My 7 week mission has begun and I'm already exhausted just typing this! Maybe I should take before & after pics and pitch myself as a spokesmodel once complete!
Guess it's time I face the boogeyman face on...head on...whatever...and let him know Carly's In Charge, or at least half me and half my sleeping meds! I'm done with my horror movies and would much rather a documentary or comedy!
XOXO
