Update

My HTML skills stink.

Last time I blogged or had a journal, as you know, was maybe in high school. The primitive era.

10 year HS reunion is in 4 years. Ehhh.
Yeah, you do the math.

And as far as I can recall, I've always been some what an intellectual. Always reading, writing.  In school, my best friend and I would be pen-pals. Even though we call eachother or get together.

Just where the hell did all the creativity go? Here's my attempt to dust away cobwebs from this thinker of mine.

Also will try to post pics. Hubby got me a red Nikon S60 last Xmas, which needs to be used more!

Subjects of major interest:
>> Skin care/ health. I've had moderate/severe eczema all my life and have had to use many different medicines for it. I almost think my bod is toxic coz it's absorbed so much. Sure you will say "I have eczema too!" And say you have it here, here, and here. I have a more severe degree. This is how I can share products and procedures with people like me.
This isnt a pity or woe-as-me post. It was hard growing up, being self conscious about it all. At that age, you want to be a kid, but would have these responsibilities for your health. I always had my mom help me apply the meds to my skin. And when I hit the teen-age, the era when you don't-give-a-shit-about-anything-but-yourself, it just stayed the same or worsened. Now that I'm older, its full circle. Like why didn't I take care of myself better. As result I have scars, hyper pigmentation spots, etc. I don't want to say I suffer from eczema. My younger cousin has it too, and I see her do same things I did. I don't want her to butcher her budding self esteem. Girls these days have it hard. Too inspirational, I'm considering being an advocate for young girls and eczema.
>> Beauty. I could never figure out makeup in my younger years. Couldn't really ask my Mom coz she didn't wear any. I'd say the only product that I've worn the most is mascara. Do you curl your lashes? My in-laws say they pull your lashes out. However they have long-ass eyelashes already, LOL!
Before I got married, I was getting into it. Looking @ tutorials on YT/ Youtube. Its so easy! And inspirational. I've checked other blogs, and try the products they used and recommended. Lotta times they would make my condition worse. Though I'm an eczema patient, not really supposed to wear makeup. Again, I can share products with people with conditions like mine. This will be my mark!
And gotta enjoy being a girl!
>> Food. I've been cooking more than ever these days, being a Mrs.
>> Movies & TV. Last Monday started all the new prime time shows. My brain and DVR overloadeddd.

I'm sure there will be other subjects, its so limitless!
