Body care and life is a BIG job with lots of work

Well Guys and Gals- It has been snowing- 11 years ago we had a blizzard too and Madison had her Bat mitzvah. It was another unpleasant experience. But today she cleared the driveway and sidewalk nearest to the house and cleared off all the cars. Not an easy chore for her. Hard physical labor while cold it not her cup of tea. So now she is napping. I put a down comforter on her bed today and she is all cozy. Janet did the back path to her house for me. 

I just took a warm bath and covered my "toy " with a plastic bag so it would not get wet--- It should torture me in about an hour or so.  My house is finally in order (bills are next)

I am ready to rest after I finish my body care. Your know our human bodies require a lot of work to be properly maintained and cared for- Brush teeth, rinse mouth Floss teeth, shape and pluck eyebrows, moisture face in the morning, moisturize face in the evening, keep hands and feet properly moisture too. Cut toenails, cut and shape fingernails, Lotion on body. Take vitamins, keep up with routine blood work. Get enough sun to process Vitamin D but not too much to get skin cancer. Once a year in stirrups, once a year Mammography, every 5 years colonoscopy. Yearly dental X-rays, teeth cleaned. Drink water, get enough sleep and rest. Exercise daily if possible and at least 3 times a week. Strengthen your core. Do cardio. Keep muscles mass good. Lower body fat ratio. Avoid sugar, Avoid bad fats. Eat good fats. No preservatives or GMOs. Stick with natural like God and Mother nature made- Nutrient dense. Fruits and Vegetables. Nothing white. Get enough berries, use high quality extra virgin olive oil. Wash hair but not too often. Uses conditioner. Do not pull just fluff. Cleanse face. Tone face. Use sunscreen that won't clog pores. OMG- I think I want to retire just so I can keep up with my bodily functions- did I mention to make sure I am eliminating daily. Juicing is good, Fiber is good- don't drink juice though from the store full of sugar. Cows milk is out. Almond milk is in- Get unsweetened. Drink green tea.   

And go to work; meet your friends for dinner. Keep a clean and organized home, Cook daily and especially on weekends- Food shop at more than one store. Empty the trash. Make sure house smells good. Feed the cats- empty cat litter. Play with cats so they know they are loved. Send out birthday cards. Call friends and chat to keep up with them. Tell family you love them. Plan and go on vacation. Do weekend getaways. Make time to visit with friends and family even when not a holiday. Be involved with book clubs or volunteer and be part of professional and social groups. Attend services for religious purposes. Sit and spend time with adult children and listen. Validate them and listen so more. Do not offer suggestions unless asked. Stay informed with politics especially with national and local elections.  Know your geography. Learn to use the Internet and all that it entails. Clean out your inbox almost daily before you get overwhelmed. Do that at home and at work. Return all phone calls. Make sure you get some "me" time alone. Have a good cry.
