Default I feel pretty oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and bright ..

As a Femme who suffers from illness and is differently abled, I am always looking for ways to "feel pretty".

Not for anyone other than myself. So I was wondering what everyone else does to feel oh so pretty?

I:

Take a bubble bath
Get my make up done at the Benefit or Mac counter
Cook a recipe I've never tried
Walk on the beach at sunrise/sunset
Have me and the kids dress up fancy for a dinner of pancakes
Read an autobiography about a woman who inspires me
Complete a crossword puzzle
Wear fancy undies
Learn something new
Laugh until I cry
Watch Shawshank Redemption, Terms of Endearment or Steele Magnolias
Sleep in
Watch an entire season of Six Feet Under or Queer as Folk over a weekend and stay in my pajamas the entire time
Call my friends.

Sometimes it is hard to not feel sorry for myself and that is when I attempt an *oh so pretty* event.

What does everyone else do?

The mani/pedi is a big one for me

Although other things make me feel pretty too...breakfast with my best friend...or a new haircut...or even just wearing a skirt and kitten heels...

The one that makes me feel really beautiful though is when Scoote wraps her arms around me, looks into my eyes and tells me that she loves me.

Only because I think you are awesome.

To feel "handsome" I:

Get a haircut.
Take a super hot shower.
Wear my favorite clothes and cologne.
Go out dancing.
Talk to my femme friends, they are always generous with their compliments.
Take a walk and feel the air on my face.
Listen to good music.
Go down memory lane and that makes me feel lucky and handsome.

Yesterday I went out and had my haircut even shorter, and had chunky/streaky highlights added. I am rocking the short hair, and feeling oh so very pretty!

I can seriously relate to this.

Lupus and chronic pain really drains me... and I'm allergic to most "girly girl" skin products.

But I like to:
*splurge on Arbonne International products bought from my best friend (everything is all natural, no harsh chemicals, no un-natural fragrance or dye ingredients and not tested on animals.)
*Wear my very well made, beautiful and comfortable corset & thigh highs hidden under my business suits. (it "improves" my posture and makes me feel sassy)
*splurge on my favorite vanilla honey scented bath products, almond butter lotions or Hugo Deep Red perfume.
*Dance barefoot in my kitchen.
*apply a little makeup to add color to my pale face and make my blue/hazel eyes stand out.
*get decked out for work and wear my "kick ass boots"
*straighten these G*D Awful curls!
*wear an outfit that's my lover's favorite and smile coy like when I get their attention
*enjoy a candle lit hot bubble bath to wash away the pain
*day dream about my lover sneaking up behind me in the kitchen, wrapping their arms around my waist, nuzzling my neck and whispering "Ummm you smell so good baby."
*having a GOOD hair day!! LOL
*finding a blouse that I don't need a bra with and show off my hourglass curves (scars from my surgery make bras unbearable!)
*seeing the pride in my would-be lover's eyes when they are out with me and their attention is focused on my eyes, smile and laughter.

And "airdrying" after a very hot bath.

I forgot something last night.

Maybe it's the ritual/process of it all or maybe it's the reason WHY I'm doing it but going to the salon and getting hot waxed makes me feel pretty, especially the naughty bits.

Sometimes I like to make all around me pretty.
So that's when I run out and buy new curtains, a bedspread, sheets...maybe a new picture or a frame for an old picture...just very simple things that change my surroundings and refresh me in the process.

I get this...because as a Butch who suffers from illness and is differently
abled, I sometimes wonder if in the eyes of Mrs Daywalker...I am still
everything she fell in love with almost 7 years ago.

Can I still make her smile in that special way from across the grocery
store, and it is difficult to see from my perspective just how much I have
lost during the years. But it does weigh on my mind. I look for ways
to show her the pieces of me that she fell for long ago...
