self care

Well, I had planned to write a little blog on the fact that Barbie seems to have less trouble making a super-heroine aimed at kids than either Marvel or DC comics do, but I think I should talk about some more serious stuff instead.

Anybody who knows me probably knows I struggle with self care a lot.

Not to put too fine a point on it, I suck at looking after myself.

So today, I decided to see how I could change that, and I took the little waterproof radio my sister-in-law gave me to help me take a shower, and put it to use not only during a bath, but while I shaved and brushed my teeth as well.

It really seemed to help keep my anxiety down to a level I could manage.

So the next step is to try and do this consistently, and if I can manage it, even add a little makeup to the routine as well.

Wish me luck ...
