Today I wear a designer voortrekker tracksuit top, a navy silk chiffon blouse with polka dots, a hand-printed vest with turquoise hearts of olive green, and a bright pink pair of knickers which are more comfortable now than when they used to be sexy.
I wear the history of women mad enough to push wagons across high mountain ranges, dressed to the nines in bonnets and voluminous dresses that covered them from neck to ankle.
I wear five years of corporate sameness. I wear the delight found in being the only one. I wear how to turn my head, my ankles and my everythings in order to appear attractive. I wear the belief that none of this matters.

You look so lovely and such a lovely and uplifting post! I love it!
You wear yourself in a way that I admire and am inspired by. You're beautiful, and you know I'm not talking about the way you look.
Thank you.

I am always up for a walk whenever...just say the word. And my, I love those pictures.
You are a supermodel.
This is great! I love seeing what other people wear. If only I had known sooner...
Loved seeing you.
I love the part about mad pioneer women.
I'm shallow this way, but girl, you have really nice legs.
Ah! Pictures of you! I really love the fact that this isn't about being "attractive", or pretty.
And I feel like I'm waiting for spring so that my body can emerge from a cocoon of clothing again.
brilliant-- what a creative and imaginative approach to a self-portrait-- loved it

Wow - nice legs!
It's great to have a face to put with the lovely words.
Hi, I'm fine with your look and pink knickers. You are a beautiful person.
However, I've just discovered you blog and would love to know the story behind you dogs. The adults and puppies? Are they all yours?
I'm a 53 yy female from Oklahoma, no children, but I do have 1 cat and 2 dogs. My furry family.
Love the way you communicate with you animals. From the way they look at you, you are truly the alpha dog. That is not a bad thing, every group/pack must have a leader. And I lead my pack.
Peace and blessings,
