Hairy Coo

This big guy is from Scotland.  When my husband and I took an anniversary trip with my brother-in-law and sister-in-law, we came upon a hairy coo.  Also known as a hairy cow - go figure.

He has nothing to do with this post except he's in dire need of a solid trim - how can he even see the grass he's eating??

Too bad he's not a school-age boy or girl ... or, you know, human.  He could have gotten his hair cut for FREE at JCPenney.  During the month of August, kids can get a FREE haircut.

It's not as easy as just getting in the car and going - as we found out when we did that and got there today.  They are SWAMPED.  We did manage to get an appointment for Tuesday morning.  So, call and schedule an appointment asap.

"Better than Botox" - Harper's Bazaar

What's better than botox?  The anti-aging system from Rodan and Fields - the same folks who introduced the world to Proactiv® .  I should have bought stock in this company years ago... I swear I payed for the good doctors' houses, cars, and children's schooling with the amount of  Proactiv® I bought and used during the decade I had issues with my goober honkers (what my dermatologist lovingly named the acne on my face... I wish I was kidding).



They have 4 regimens for those of us on this side of our 20s:

The Anti-Age regimen is a four-step system that layers powerful cosmetic ingredients and proven peptide technology to visibly firm skin and reduce the appearance of lines, wrinkles and enlarged pores. 

The Reverse regimen erases the signs of premature aging, including brown spots, dullness, and sun damage by exfoliating, brightening, and protecting the skin for a more even tone and texture.

The Unblemish regimen combats the entire acne cycle by unclogging pores, clearing breakouts and calming your complexion to eliminate pimples, blackheads and post-acne marks.

The Soothe regimen calms the reaction of hyper-sensitive complexions by reducing redness and irritation in as little as 5 minutes. This regimen shields against the biological and environmental aggressors that can trigger inflammation and helps fortify the skin's natural moisture barrier.    

Turning 30 is just around my corner (someone, ahem, has already turned that corner...she might also write for this blog... :)) and I'm fighting these wrinkles and dark spots tooth and nail!
