shitty shitty day

what, i can't say shit now? huh.

it's just been a terrible week leading up to a grand awful finale. nothing to do with the weather, as i loved all the heavy rain here in california.

just....... very testy with superman. i'm not sure if he is super after all. he's caring, yet not caring. man of the house, yet... wimpy at times. i'm very bothered by him, just little things.

is it because... well darn we don't know! we try to get along better, but we argue over the tiniest little things. he says i need to let it go..... but he doesn't. cuz if he did, we PROB WON'T ARGUE FOR HOUR(s). cuz well, it's a plain fact it takes TWO to argue. so it's definitely not just me. it's the two of us.

i've been awfully stressed due to some problem with my fave credit card!! (i hate them people now!!) what happened to caring about your customers?! now we're all potential frauders or something. and bills. and lot of other household stuff..... it's just a lot of weight on the shoulders.

and poor lil supergirl. she's just baffled and running back and forth to us. i'm heartbroken for her.

aging gracefully?

don't we all wish!

i've never felt myself 'age' until after i had my darling supergirl. everything was fine, up until after i stopped breastfeeding. i breastfed her for 15 months and 3 weeks. during the time i was nursing her, my skin was glowy, plump, and i look great! afterwards- after i weaned her, it's an entirely different story. i'm wondering if this is what all mommy's go thru!! a few months after weaning, my skin feels dryer and i'm breaking out often. ok, i accept it's the hormones balancing itself out or wrecking havoc on me! 6 months in... i look in the mirror and i do not like what i see. i have darker circles and my skin does not have that 'glow' to it anymore, and i can feel it slackening. i ask superman- but he says i look the same. (but he is just so darn sweet!) i even ask my mother- and she thinks i'm seeing things. huh?

well, it's about 2 months shy to a year since i've of weaned supergirl. (by the way, supergirl's doing super- couldn't be better! such a ray of sunshine and a throughly happy girl. she just turned 2. ^^) and i feel the skin slacking!! i push my finger into my cheeks and it's definitely lacking that bounce. moisturiziers don't help and i've tried too many different kinds too (prob not good either), i'm oily and then i'm dry-- it's all over the place!! and well.. I am 32. which article was it that i read the other day.. about cell turnover rates? it's slow down by a gazillion times by the time we're in our 30's!!! and aging is inevitable. i'm really feeling it. grrr.. i'm still me. but i'm getting older. i just have to make peace with it. but it's hard!!! it's hard on us women, ain't it?!
