After being pregnant and taking care of two very young children all day, I sometimes find it challenging to find ways to make myself feel...well, good. It's not that I feel bad. But I hardly ever feel like "me". I feel like a mom, a wife, an employee, a maid, and so on. I was never into fashion and makeup when I was growing up and I never really will be. It's just not who I am. I've never been overly concerned or interested in my looks. I want to look good but I don't want to spend a lot of time getting there. As if I have any.
But now that my body has been through things that would make most people shudder, I try to find ways to feel pretty. Simple things like wearing earrings, painting my nails, and wearing mascara. Nothing crazy or time consuming but it has been working.
Maybe one day I can make it to the "wearing real pants" part of fashion. But I'm in no hurry.
