Eliza -- Thank you! And yes, like the old "make hay while the sun shines" saying "goddessing" when possible seems prudent, ha!
Thanks also for the encouragement re hair as I'm definitely at the Are We There Yet stage but have miles to go. I have a lot of local cheerleaders plus the YLFers, and that sure helps offset the skeptics/"oh I could never'-ers. [cough long-distance family member cough]
CocoLion and Helen -- Thank you both too! This rental thing can go a bit awry but it's very interesting what I pick when practicality/longevity/budget isn't a factor.
CL, I broke down and started doing pushups and weights a few years ago since my upper body was so weak (I'm sooo lazy and find them soooo boring) so am going to credit them for the shoulder line. I admit my shoulders aren't out that often as I burn so easily -- it's simpler in spring/early summer or early fall when 1 coat of sunblock plus a not-as-strong sun work in my favor for a few hours!
