    Better sleep is needed and also some vitamin deficiency could cause dark circles..it can be fixed:)
    Cucumber slices surely help

    I sleep 8 hrs minimum and I am a good sleeper (wake up only after alarm rings, no in betweens). I have severe onion allergy. So 5/7 days a weeks my nose is stuffed. It could be due to that. Cucumber slices don't work for me for some reason. May be tea bags?

    Moms can extract payback without causing pain and they’re entitled to respect for all the pains they’ve taken to bring up the child...
    Maybe I made an incorrect comment...
    The reason for the strong language- I’ve been on receiving end...there was a very nasty fight during my early marriage time when MIL yelled and went on and on about all the sacrifices she had to make to bring up my DH...Shen rubbed in my face about all pains She took to bring him up in a hostile family environment , no family or financial support, and educate him with a very modest income...and the amount of money spent on his education...apparently they had to run around a lot, borrow some immediately required heavy amount from relative, take loan and due to this expense couldn’t purchase some property that they needed as they wouldn’t have been able to afford it with all this...she yelled “we did so much and this is what we get” ...one of the worst fights ever...that’s why even now my H does not speak up even if she behaves badly with me..he tells me to tolerate her bad behaviour...
    it’s not as a matter of fact, but it seems like more of a reminder that it’s payback time so we have to do our duties towards MIL and FIL unwaveringly..
    I dint like this..I mean I know how much they have done, i respect them, I know we have duties towards in laws why be reminded again and again with resentment..

    :hello:Somewhere I remember to have read, “ whether one weds or not, at age forty she or he repents”. Forty is the age at which certain structural change takes place and one has to listen real close to body signals and make necessary changes in life style if need be.

    So little Anika is soon turning naughtyforty ....
    Enjoy the naughty forties girl. This is a good time . In your forties you don't give a damn about what others have to say. It is time to check off the fun stuff on the bucket list.:)

    Tell him he is welcome to grow old ...but you will for ever be sweet sixteen...say it with a naughty roll of the eye.

    I once told my husband I will stop growing old at 32. :rolleyes:
    He still laughs and asks me what to write in the age column...32?:tongueclosed:

    Do get the hair colour done. Not only does it make you look young,it also makes you feel young .:beer-toast1:
