Thanks to the wonderful, thought provoking post of Caroline's, I decided to go ahead and post what I like about my body...so after taking a pic here and a pic there of my hand feet etc..I said what the H.. I am 58 years old, I have held hands, soothed babies, helped the dying, walked the floor with worry and excitement, carried happiness, grief, love and children..let's be happy that you have feet beneath you and sky above...so I am posting ME in all my Monday- not showered, not made-up.. hidden behind many layers..Tada!!

Thanks Caroline !!!!
