skin care experiment #2 day 7
I would say this skin care experiment has been more than a success! The little worry lines are greatly reduced, what it has done for the skin around my eyes is like a miracle and my skin overall is much more radiant. Pictures don't really tell the whole story the texture of my skin has become ridiculously soft. Now drumroll please..... the products are from arbonne!

skin care experiment #2 day 6
over all I have been faithful to the regimen, except for the one night I did the worst thing ever and fell asleep without washing, toning moisterizing and beautiyin my face.
My allergies have been pretty bad to day so my eyes are puffy, but I would say my skin is looking great! I look just plain healthier! I am so far amazed at the results.
now if only I had more discipline. Boy if they could put that in a bottle?

another day in paradise
I awoke this morning, delightful kitty meowing my face, I live in such a delightful place, eden like garden, flowers and trees, the beuaty brings me to my knees, I am very pleased with my peaceful life, to be content, to pay the rent, and spend my days lost in creativity, and my nights lost in you.

Björk - Big Time Sensuality
I am really feeling this
why do we deny such bliss
from a warming kiss
and sweet caress
beautiful joy that can be had
who ever said it was bad
was a fool
skin care experiment #2 day three
So here is my face after using the product for 2 1/2 days, not a speck of make up and my skin feels softer and smoother, my under eye circles that I have had my whole life are dimininshing. Now that is nerarly a miracle!
I used the same lighting an position as the first photo. If I had a better camera you could also see a marked difference in the light wrinkles around my eyes and my worried forhead. So I am feeling pretty confident about the regime of skin care!

Skin care experiment #2
So I used to be a model. Skin care became an important part of that, having someone doing your make up is actually a very intimate experience, especially if they have to cover things up!. I have never had what you would call "good" skin. I have had under eye circles since puberty, then came the acne (oh God) and it was bad. I have had sun damage, acne, flaky patches, and now under eye puffiness and (gasp!) wrinkles. I am forty five and I have many allergies and very sensitive skin. This is day one of trying a new skin care line. I got some samples from a friend and have been doing research on line about the products and the company. So here is a pic of me last night with NO MAKEUP on. As much as I like to look good on line, I have to let it go for this. As I have gotten older and tried many over the counter skin care products and nothing has really helped, many have made my skin much worse. I basically have been using Dr. Bronnerss peppermint and aloe vera.
So skin care experiment #2 after using the products for one day.
By morning, the puffiness around my eyes is certainly reduced. My skin feels smooth, and firmer especially around the jawline. I am doing this because I am a skeptic, because I wanna see the pictures to have a better perspective about before and after, proof for myself. Because most of all I am very frugal, I will not buy anything until I know it works, if I can. I am tired of trying different brands and having nothing but bad results. I really do want to get back into Women's size modeling, when I was 17-20 I was the highest paid model in the Pacific Northwest. Most of the women that I worked with where in there 30's. Women's size modeling is a very different niche. I am still in good shape and people tell me I look younger than I am so I am gonna go for it!

What is Bisexuality?
Sexual activity does not "make" a person bisexual. Many people engage in same-sex activity who identify as straight. Likewise, many lesbian women have sex with men and later come out as lesbian.
To be bisexual is to know that you are romantically, sexually and emotionally able to have relationships with both men and women.
http://lesbianlife.about.com/od/bisexualwomen/f/Bisexuality.htmSo where''sthe roadmap?
how do I get a date with a woman. Here I am in the gay capatol
in the world and i can't seem to get a date with a woman.
Maybe being in awe of them so deeply, causes my mind to stop completey.
Also I have a man and he is good to me and I do love him, does that then mean how do we get a date?
am I afraid that makes me a slut to want to have a goddess to worship.
is this so abnormal.
AM i ashamed that people will think I'm a toatal perver or what?
IDK!

Introduction
Schizoaffective disorder is a serious mental illness that has features of two different conditions, schizophrenia and an affective (mood) disorder, either major depression or bipolar disorder.
Schizophrenia is a brain disorder that distorts the way a person thinks, acts, expresses emotions, perceives reality and relates to others. Depression is an illness that is marked by feelings of sadness, worthlessness or hopelessness, as well as problems concentrating and remembering details. Bipolar disorder is characterized by cycling mood changes, including severe highs (mania) and lows (depression).
Schizoaffective disorder is a life-long illness that can impact all areas of daily living, including work or school, social contacts and relationships. Most people with this illness have periodic episodes, called relapses, when their symptoms surface. While there is no cure for schizoaffective disorder, symptoms often can be controlled with proper treatment.
What Are the Symptoms of Schizoaffective Disorder?
A person with schizoaffective disorder has severe changes in mood and some of the psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations, delusions and disorganized thinking. Psychotic symptoms reflect the person's inability to tell what is real from what is imagined. Symptoms of schizoaffective disorder may vary greatly from one person to the next and may be mild or severe. Symptoms of schizoaffective disorder may include:
Depression
- Poor appetite
- Weight loss or gain
- Changes in sleeping patterns (sleeping very little or a lot)
- Agitation (excessive restlessness)
- Lack of energy
- Loss of interest in usual activities
- Feelings of worthlessness or hopelessness
- Guilt or self-blame
- Inability to think or concentrate
- Thoughts of death or suicide
Next: Mania »
I am just recovering from an episode, of schizo effective based on paranoia where I did and said things that where not based on actual reality. Having snapped back into reality has be scary yet paves the way for a freer and more authentic self ti move forward with my dreams!
