Dress to meet the love of your life

You know the old adage: get up, dress up, show up?

Some time back I heard additional excellent advice along the same lines. One of those motivational, handsome, hip, spiffy, well-chiseled, broad-shouldered – but I digress. Anyway, one of those motivational, dress for success, guys advocated rising each morning and dressing as though you are going to meet the love of your life. Everyday. That seems a bit extreme to me. But I get the point. Most women apply makeup for special occasions – as do I.

So yes. I put on lipstick when I hike. I wear makeup in the Great Outdoors -mostly because my lipstick is a moisturizer and also sunscreen. When I am working – even the most casual of jobs-I dress up – I pay attention to what I wear. I have always recognized and followed good advice. But pandemic. Isolation. Living alone. Some things were neglected the second quarter of 2020.

Today I remembered. I bathed and groomed with care. I put on my makeup. I chose a favorite outfit. I’m now dressed to meet the love of my life – so I am convinced I’ll find the perfect kayak.
