Memoir: First Trip to Sedona – Part Three

My job on this @freeyourinnerguru #authorinterview is going to be easy. All I have to do is ask “What is it?” and shut the heck up. 💥⠀ ⠀ #podcast #dontoverthinkit 😂 #meaningoflife ⠀ #podcasthost #womenwhopodcast #podcastlife⠀#torontopodcast #torontopodcaster #canadianpodcast #canadianpodcaster

Earlier this week I put on makeup, styled my hair, set up my mini-studio in our stairwell, and the photos were an unmitigated disaster!⠀ ⠀ I was trying too hard and it showed. The sun was in and out of the clouds and there\'s a skylight. The brightness was one thing, but going back and forth between warm light and cool light changes everything. Plus I looked like I was in physical pain. 🤪⠀ ⠀ Welcome to our bedroom window on a cloudy day! No make-up, no hairstyle, ratty t-shirt, and yes, that is my robe in the background of the last one. I was trying to block everything with my giant head, but whatever... 🤷‍♀️⠀ ⠀ Capturing this #blondetosilver transition can be a pain in the a$$, but I\'ve already had one friend ask me questions because she\'s considering it for herself. She\'s a dark haired beauty with a couple inches of solid silver, so I referred her to all the #goinggrey and #silversisters hashtags where I got my inspiration.⠀ ⠀ 20 weeks #blondeless and counting. And loving every millimeter of it. 🤍⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #naturalgreyhair #greyhair #grayhair #50plus #greyhairmovement #greyhairdontcare #naturalgreyhair #silverhairdontcare #embracethegrey #silverandfree #greyhairtransition #rideordyejuly2020

#selfcaresunday 🛁 + Hells Bells 🔔... I’ve always been known for Laura Days, long before the term self care was coined. Every Sunday, I would light a candle and take a super long bath, reading, soaking, thinking, listening to music on my original iPod. This was long before the internet and social media. I got everything set up today, including my original iPod, thinking I would find some chill music to help get rid of a blistering headache. When I put my iPod down, it sprang to life with AC/DC’s Hells Bells. 😂Instead of shutting it off, I went with it. Forty-five minutes later my headache was gone and I am pleased to report that Back in Black still holds up 40 - WTF?!?? 40?!?? - years later. ⠀ And Hells Bells is still the perfect antidote for whatever ails me. 😈⠀ ⠀ #selfcare #sundayselfcare #selfcareishealthcare #putyouroxygenmaskonfirst #winterofselfcare #selfcareselfie
