Looking Up

Good morning,

I apologize for not getting this newsletter sent out yesterday.  

I was up to my eyeballs in a work-related project.   Trying to solve a Google related problem that is having a horrendous effect on my business.  

I thought I was going to be able to pound out this project by lunchtime and then make a big announcement to all of you via the newsletter about the "new and improved" website... but then after working 10 hours on completely revamping the website... I started to rethink the whole thing and maybe my solution would cause more Google problems rather than less.  

So, I went to bed... to "sleep on it."  Now, I am rethinking my rethinking.  

Don't you hate it when the answers are not crystal clear and easy to recognize?

take care,

Skye Thomas

Feature Article of the Week:

From Prom to Mom and Back Again

Today, my seventeen-year-old daughter is going to her prom.  She has spent the last week hunting for the most flattering dress, the cutest shoes, the perfect hair clips, the loveliest hairstyle, and fingernail polish with just the right amount of sparkle.  Me, I bought a six-pack of practical panties that don't ride up or annoy me too much.  Now, as I watch her getting ready, I realized that my roots need touching up, my polish is chipped and I could really use a pedicure.  Tonight when she walks out that door, she will feel like a princess, I will be feeling old and frumpy.  But do I have to?  NO!

As teenagers, we were not afraid to spend too much money on a new outfit, try the newest color of eye shadow, or wear those sexy little panties.  When did we become so frumpy and dull?  Most of us gave ourselves permission to stop hyper-dieting once we got married.  When we were first pregnant, we gave ourselves permission to eat a bit too much.  When the baby was born, we chopped off our long hair so the baby wouldn't keep grabbing and pulling it.  And it was so much faster to wash and wear.  As we had to make choices between school clothes for the kids and push up bras for ourselves, we chose to give them what they needed and we bought those cheaper less sexy bras.  Somewhere along the way, we forgot to paint our toenails a lovely pink for the summer.  We did not change over night; it crept up on us over the years.  It is not until our own daughters are standing before us, transformed into beautiful princesses that we realize how far we have come from our own princess days.

Being frugal, practical, sensible, more laid back and comfortable made us less sexy.  It is the price we pay for being selfless and giving so much of ourselves away to others.  There is no time, money, or energy left for primping and prancing about.  Age does not rob us of our sex appeal, wanting to feel "comfortable" does.  It takes a lot of time and effort to hunt for an outfit that looks sexy and feels comfortable enough to wear it while out running errands with the kids in tow.  It takes time and effort to find push up bras, sexy underwear, manicurists, and hairdressers at an economical price that won't make us feel like we are being selfish and screwing up the family budget.  It takes time and effort to learn how to do your own manicures and pedicures, and then to actually do them.  Some women never do learn how to paint their nails without making a big mess of it.  My daughter may be one of them!  She rarely wears polish even as a teen because it's such a hassle to get it on correctly and then to handle herself in a way that doesn't cause them to be chipped and messy within twenty-four hours.  Tweezing eyebrows, masking our pores, and moisturizing properly takes time and effort.  When we start juggling schedules and trying to learn time management, it is only natural that these are the things that we leave out.

Moms and career women often lose their sex appeal as a result.  Women who are wealthy enough to hire help, to still be able to splurge on themselves, and/or who just don't have all that many responsibilities often maintain their loveliness for decades after the rest of us begin to frump and grump.  

As I watch my daughter today, I think about all of the times I opted for a nap instead of a workout, all of the times I chose to spend a little more money on the kids instead of myself, all of the times I made cookies instead of painting my nails, and all of the times I chose to wear granny panties for comfort instead of those darn thongs.  I am not sorry I made those choices.  They added a different kind of happiness to my life.  Feeling sexy is a lovely and wonderfully empowering thing, but so is saying; "I don't have to do that right this minute.  I give myself permission to NOT be visually perfect right now."  I am not advocating frumpiness.  I am just saying that it is logical, it feels good, and it is so much easier than constantly having to look like a princess.

However, I also think that tonight I will paint my fingers and toes.  I am going to tweeze my brows and I will fix my hair a little nicer than I would for a normal Saturday evening at home.  I will wear a pretty dress too.  It will be a loose flowing one that feels about as nice as when I wear my nightgown, but it will be prettier than my sweats.  Today, I will treat myself to just a bit of "princess."

I really do believe that all women can have those princess moments at any age.  All women can feel sexy at any age.  It simply involves giving ourselves permission to say that we are worthy of the time, money, and effort needed to pamper, primp, and spoil ourselves just a bit.  I am reminded of my daughter when she dressed up for her first winter formal a couple of years ago.  I fixed her hair, helped her into her dress, and then turned her around so she could see herself in the mirror.  When my then 15-year-old tomboy saw herself in the mirror, her eyes misted up, and she said, "Ooooh, I look like a princess!"  It is a moment neither of us will ever forget.  We do not have to spend as much time and money as the girls do on Prom Night, but a little dose of princess treatment goes a long way towards making us feel sexy and beautiful.
