Leather, Friend or Foe

LEATHER IS A GREAT LOOK ON MY FEET

I am such a boot girl.  My entire fall and winter wardrobe is designed around my boots, I know, how shallow of me.  But look at them,  they are like a walk down memory lane.  My first pair was from Robin right after Cassidy was born and I'm still wearing them.  How many things last 26 years and never go out of style?  The next pair was snagged out of mom's closet because they didn't fit her.  Yay for me, sorry for her.  The fabulous turquoise pair was a Christmas surprise from my children a few years ago with a little hint from my bff Heather.  And of course, Jr/Sr banquet at school forced me to buy this next pair to finish off the perfect outfit, like anyone was looking at me anyway.  And the last pair, ummm,  I think I just had a weak moment and treated myself..... No judging....There's just nothing better than the feel and smell of real leather, so rich, so tough, so durable and rugged and so long lasting, don't you agree?

But here's the problem, leather embellishing your feet, fabulous, but a leather look on your face, a NO GO!!!! Who wants to look in the mirror and be reminded of your favorite boots?  That would not be me.  In Song Of Solomon, the bridegroom is proclaiming his love to his bride and tells her that her hair is like a flock of goats and her teeth are like a flock of newly shorn ewes. Her neck is like the tower of David, built with rows of stones on which are hung a thousand shields. I hope that Robin doesn't take note of that and say to his bride, that would be me, Cathy, your face is like your favorite pair of  old boots, so tough and so durable and so long lasting..... and your neck, your neck is like the broken in part of your boots and hung with a thousand wrinkles and lines, so rugged, so durable.  Can I have a show of hands for anyone that dreams of hearing those words sung over you?  AGAIN, NOT ME.  So just in time,  Cassidy comes to the rescue.  She not only advises her daddy not to proclaim words of love like that to me but also is now a consultant for Rodan+Fields.  It's a great skin care regimen for all ages of beauty.  Does this sound like a plug?  It is!!!  The first thing on my wish list is the micro exfoliating roller that I am going to use to  roll the leather right off my face.  You should see the before and after pictures.  I can hardly wait.  Actually, Cassidy's  having her "launch" party at my house on May 14th at 11 am.  Ya'll should all come.  Rumor has it there will be macaroons  made especially by Cassidy. She's a girl of many talents.  Let me know if you want me to reserve one for you.  It will be great fun.
