I don’t want to scare anybody about getting older, but here’s one of those things that you should be aware of once your body starts aging. A little self-care goes a very long way. These photos were not taken a year apart. I took the photo on the left yesterday afternoon. I just took the one on the right this afternoon, on the first day of the new year. Yesterday I had not gotten enough sleep the night before. Last night I slept well. I dyed my hair, took a shower, dry brushed my skin, and I’ve been drinking water. There is no filter on either photo. I took both of them outside my front door. My lesson here (besides humility for me😜) is that if you don’t take care of your body, no amount of lotion is going to keep you looking young. I plan on reverse aging this year by filling my body and my soul with the right things for me. We only get one body to house our souls and to share our beautiful spirits with others in this human existence. Let’s try to be kinder to ourselves as we work so hard to be kinder to the world. You ladies take care of yourselves. It’s not an indulgence or a luxury. It is a necessity! Happy new year, loves🥳🎉🎈🤩🥂🍾💥🥰 #selfcareisvital #takecareofyourbody #agingisaprivilege #agingisntforwimps #eathealthyfood #dothethings #agingisokay #wisdomcomeswithage #wisewoman #maidenmothercrone #maybeyoushouldgoandloveyourself #youloveyou #dailycare #womenshealth #nurtureyourself #nurtureyoursoul #feedyourbody #feedyourmind #empathchick #universalmomma (at Coral Springs, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJhS2dULr-B/?igshid=birhjputzoe7

Good morning! Lesson learned this week: leave stoopid human tricks to the younger generation. Healing takes longer at this age!! Find something to make you smile, daily. There are no do overs in this thing called life! Enjoy your day, everyday! #agingisaprivilege #enjoylife #goodmorning #smile #sunrise #ponies #lifeisgood #thatsallineed #backtobeingme https://www.instagram.com/p/CE6c9XlBXot/?igshid=rfldgitgo9am

Lately, I’ve been feeling my age. This post reminded me of the good in being 40-something.... #grateful #agingisaprivilege In case you missed it on 60 Minutes, this is what Andy Rooney thinks about women near or over 40... “As I grow in age, I value women near or over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why: A woman near or over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think. If a woman near or over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting. Women near or over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it. Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated. Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman near or over 40. Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman near or over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her. Yes, we praise women near or over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman near or over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize.” - If you are a “Women near or over 40” copy, paste, add a picture of yourself, post/share and keep rocking the best you! ❤️❤️❤️ (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8jTVyZBBEf/?igshid=1s6n9qensdfs9

Onyx accidentally let me take a picture of her!! So I took my chance! 😉 Ony will be 13 this Summer. She was a trooper at her exam. She had updated vaccines and was microchiped. She is starting to show her age quite a bit more. She is in the beginning stage of Degenerative Myelopathy. Her back legs are fairly weak. She does take pain management medicines to help with arthritis and to keep her comfortable. Lately we have been dealing with incontinence, she takes Proin to help counteract that. This girl is a gentle soul. She hangs out in the quiet gang. Usually away from all the shenanigans! Her best friends are Dakota and Ellie. 🐶🐶🐶 We will take it day by day and help this girl age gracefully 💗 #ony #blackbear #seniorgermanshepherd #germanshepherds #GSD #seniordogs #whisperingwillowsseniordogsanctuary #whereloveiswhisperedtothelastbreath #oldisthenewbeautiful #greymuzzle #degenerativemyelopathy #incontinence #quietgirl #agingisaprivilege #rescueseniordogs #savethemall #lifeisbetterwitholdfriends (at Whispering Willows Senior Dog Sanctuary, Inc.)

Clyde is so happy to have his new haircut!! He looks so much smaller now! Clyde had a good report for his health exam. Relatively healthy for a 13 yr old! He is covered in lipomas, skin tags, and weird lumps but nothing to worry about! He will have one removed soon because it hangs low and bothers all of us 😉 He will be getting a dental at the same time. Other than arthritis, hip displaysia he is a pretty happy boy! #antolianshepherd #seniordogs #antolianshepherdmix #rescueseniordogs #olddogsarehappydogs #clydesdale #whisperingwillowsseniordogsanctuary #whisperingwillowsseniordogsanctuary #loveaseniordog #youngatheart #oldisthenewbeautiful #endanimalabuse #agingisaprivilege #greymuzzle (at Whispering Willows Senior Dog Sanctuary, Inc.)
