What a wonderful post Ally, thanks so much for that upbeat little piece of happiness! :D :snap: I've slacked off on my water drinking and you've made me get a ginormous glass right now. :snap:

LOL! You're not the only one. I'm drinking (water:p ) as I type!

Oh Ally, you're so beautiful, inside and out, thanks for sharing with us.

Interestingly enough....I had a wake-up call about water myself this weekend. A friend of mine is in the hospital at this very moment, basically from many many years of not drinking enough water and drinking too much coffee. :eek:

Ally- you rock!

:) Beautiful post. From the inside out. :)

I'm going to be the one unbeautiful post here. Not because I don't have confidence or learned to dress for me and my body, no, it's because I am a sad lump of a sick person whose been worn dow to the pont where I doubt I'll ever feel good again.

Good skin comes wiht good genes. Bad health also comes with genes.

Aloha Ally and all you fine cats and kittens!

This is my first reply to a post (as well as my first post on the LoT, for that matter :) ), and I couldn't be happier that is for Ally's finding a moment of inner beauty and confidence! :snap: :snap:

AllyShel, I always knew you had it in you from the first time I met you! It's one of the reasons I've always loved being around you! AllyShel, you have a beautiful soul. Some people have no character, no style, no soul. You, you have a big, beautiful SOUL! I love that about you ( ok, ok. Some of you might be thinking, "Where have I heard that before?" If you guessed the closing scene from "Roxanne", you'd be right! The only differences are I'm replacing the nose reference and I am definetly no Daryl Hannah! :blush: ;) ).:cheers:

I always find it amazing how some people can carry themselves with so much confidence and how the world around them brightens up like they were the candle in a dark room. Just to watch the way they move, the way they talk, and the way they make people feel is a gift. Everyone has that potential, but for most it is either buried or hidden by their own fears. Glad you are letting go of those fears in you Ally, and realizing what a wonderful woman you are! :snap: :snap:
