I Looked In The Mirror

I was thinking this morning.
I do that a lot in the early hours of each day.
Starting with coffee and puter time.
I get my things done.
Later, after a few pets of this cat or that,
I try to grasp my reality.
I looked at myself in the mirror.
Yes, I know that's a terrible thing to do
to my self esteem.
I have decided that I am old.
I know ... shocking for sure.
The wrinkles are getting the best of my
once sort of cute face.
I do see some potential though in what used to be.
My new face creams are from Neutrogena.
I like this brand. I've used them before.
Not this particular
'old lady wrinkle miracle want to be' 
cream but others by them.
This time I am trying,
and for my face,
I think I'm seeing a difference.
Just slightly.
When I'm done with these two,
I think I'll try their more intense creams.
and for those lines by my lovely eyes,

I want you to know I've tried
many creams during my years.
From expensive to under ten.
I still use some of the eye creams
from Clinique and a face cream
from Philosophy.
Since my age has progressed
and my wrinkles along with,
I felt I needed
something a bit stronger.
In the 'sort of miracle' creams category.

What do you use and does it work ?

(I know I wrote something about
this a bit ago.
 Just wanted to update
you all on my current creams and
how they are going.)
There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all of the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for those who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living.
