When I apply skin cream in the morning and night I think of my mother (RIP). When we were growing up she only wore lipstick on occasion , but it was in her later years that she traveled to the city to get her face cream which I found very poignant. She appeared to only focus on self-care when we didn’t need her as much as we did when we were young.
Everyone should try to make time for self-care – whatever that means for you.
This charming shop is in Westport Ireland. I didn’t go in that day but the name caught my eye…..
I was on sabbatical when that pic was taken and the memory of that makes me smile.
A really nice shop in Westport is the Leaping Lizard on Bridge St. I bought a gorgeous solar chime there during that time – I heard it tinkle in the shop and remarked that it was like an angel or fairy……now I have one and love its unpredictability. It’s in our north facing room so does not receive much sun and is quiet these days… winter is quieter generally.
Thanks for joining me!
