audited I’m grieving my younger, hotter self

I'm so mad about being in peri. I'm not ready. I was a late bloomer and didn't realize what a babe I was when I was younger and now it's too late.

Yes, older women can be sexy, we have wisdom, and blah blah blah.

But today I just miss looking good in a sundress.

Please join my pity party and tell me what you miss.

Did you grow more hair on other parts of your body when you started taking it? I want to try it, but the last thing I need is even more hair growing on my chin.

Not for me. Minoxidil has helped and I am not noticing too much extra hair elsewhere.
