I think I’m getting old.......

I have discovered a good way to find out what I will look like twenty years from now. I look in the mirror as soon as I wake up. That is the face I will have in twenty years. MAN, I look old first thing in the morning!

I do not have personal experience with all these sculpting, lifting cremes, exfoliating stuff and all that, but from what I have observed from others none of it helps one bit. It's all a big money pit. For dry skin, any dry skin, skin moisturizer works. Anything else that is supposed to be better is a con.

Wont that cause certain bowel problems lol

There are a number of products aimed at Men these days. I don't use any of them apart from Body Spray / Deodorant and after shave. I come from a Generation that considered anything other than Brylecream, Shaving Soap and Old Spice as effeminate. I remember when Men's Hair Spray came on the market it was met with some suspicion!

I considered myself old when I reached Sixty. Now I'm seventy I consider a sixty year old to be a mere Lad!!

When you're younger, Brylecream is a little dab will do ya.

When you get older, you need a great big gob!

Eat nothing but beef, and drink nothing but water.

I had a bad RA med failure in Feb. 2015. I never used anything before that. Unless my face was really dry, in the summer or dead of winter. But, for some reason, I don't know if it was the stress from the pain, my face dried out, and the wrinkles started badly. For a while, I thought I was imagining that I looked so much older, but I compared some pics, and not only do I have 5 times the wrinkles, my nose and face are not the same shape. It is really weird. I don't look like myself!

Ooops, too much info? Oh, I use Kiehl's face cream. They have a cream for super dry skin that stops me from itching. But, as the lady in the store agreed, there is no product that will stop you from looking old. And I am not up for plastic surgery or Botox. I need both knees replaced, the right knee today, if possible! Replacing joints and reconstructing them, which I need for mobility are the only kinds of surgery I am willing to go through.

You gonna get scurvy that way.

"To live a long life, eat like a cat and drink like a dog." Of course that old saying refers to drinking water, not beer... Basically, to live a long life you should eat little and drink water a lot.
