This old gal…
Encouraged a family picture…during the Thanksgiving festivities…had a fun little photo shoot…on the steps outside…always love the goofiness that occurs…as those ladies of mine pose and snap…laugh…click…duck face…click…giggle…click…pull mom in…click click click… But that photo..with that mother of theirs…made this old gal…take pause…that outfit…the hair…the booties and old people walking shoes…had obviously dressed down…for the ladies’ visit…didn’t think about…how this old gal looked… But that photo…the pose…the clothes…the light…the angle…not manipulated…was more enlightening…than need be…this squishy blobby bodied old gal…did not look like the old gal…in her head…and…not gonna lie…it kind of stung a bit…but like those baked beans of mine…this old gal…has been around a long time…and like that recipe card…with those baked beans ingredients…we can sometimes look…a little worse for wear… But it doesn’t take much…a little of this…a little of that…a tweak here…a tweak there…a better outfit…a new note card…to feel refreshed…to feel confident…to feel…pretty…again… And that baked bean recipe of mine…agrees…
