I was on the patio relaxing from work tonight and my eyes happened to focus on my hand that was about to grab a cold beverage. That is when it happened.!! I looked down to see spots on my hand that I swear weren't there the last time I looked. It was hot so I decided to slip into more comfortable clothing instead of the work attire. I changed into my jammies( why change again later?) My jammies are cut off sweats. I went back to the patio to reintroduce myself to my cold beverage when my eyes focused this time on the spider veins on my legs. An audible gasp could be heard throughout the yard as the shock of seeing my once muscular, tanned, attractive legs with this abnormality that I wasn't familiar with. The sight captivated my vision. My first thought was, I don't remember bumping into anything to cause a bruise on my leg. My second thought was, bruises don't look like that. OMG!!!! I have spider veins!!! My third thought was I also have age, liver , sun spots or freckles on my hand that weren't there the last time I paid attention. I needed to visit the facilities after quickly consuming the cold beverage to sooth my nerves.I went to my bathroom and low and behold ,the mirror that was my friend in the past had turned on me also. I looked into my former friend and under each eye was lines that a 5 year old could have drawn with more compassion. I don't mind being 47 and a Nana but I damn sure wasn't ready to look like one!! I think I will go shopping for some anti wrinkle/age spot/spider vein/ transform yourself cream this weekend after I have another cold beverage!!! I am also changing the wattage of the lights above my new enemy in the bathroom.

Just to forewarn you. I think using the wrinkle and age cream just causes them to move and multiply. It is a ploy from the manufacturers to make us buy more. I personally have started buying Oil of Olay in bulk!
I've got them all over my legs....no thanks to pregnancy, and the only thing that's worked for me is a visit to the Dermotoligist office....for that matter, the Dermo heals all...try retina for the wrinkles:-) Love Ya, - M
