SENIOR LADY COPING WITH CHANGE!

I am going to be honest and say it, 

This COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS CHANGED MY LIFE! 

I was adjusting to the "STAY AT HOME" advice from the CDC. I do venture out once a week to run errands and get groceries. I realized that was spending days on end wearing

my drab & faded everyday clothes.

I reserved my worn faded out jeans and tops to wear when I am staying at home. My business casual clothes and dressy clothes were to be worn when I eat 

out at nice restaurants or go to

church. I had stopped wearing 

earrings. My pierced ears were 

about  to CLOSE UP! My lips 

were dry because I wasn't wearing 

my lipstick with moisturizers 

in it. I took a good look at myself 

in the mirror and  I was shocked

 at my appearance. This I don't 

care attitude had crept into

my life, unexpectedly. I realized

I had to do something to boost 

my morale! I started wearing 

lipstick and putting on earrings 

even if I was staying at home! 

I began to wear my business 

casual clothes when I left home 

weekly to run errands or shop 

for groceries. I started wearing

my fancy sundresses on Sunday. 








I got a bright idea and decided that 

I would take a SELFIE on my cell 

phone! I sent the SELFIE to my Senior Lady Facebook Friends. This is was an action swore I would never do.  Now 

most  of my  Senior Lady  friends and 

I exchange Selfies on Sunday

afternoon.

I even bought some pretty face masks 

to wear when I leave home. My wonderful college roommate even sent me some purple print face masks in the mail. I was so 

delighted that she thought so much of me!

I called her up and thanked her many times!

This really made me feel better. I save the 

generic blue masks for emergencies.


Here are some colorful face masks 

I might buy next time:
