OMG, you had me laughing so hard about the polka dot dress and Aunt Bea. I am going to donate all my large print tops and opt for smaller prints. Thank you for all your wonderful tips! Going to go online right now and order the Bye Bye Undereye concealor. Also, the Clinique under eye cream. Your eyes look amazing! With all of the crying I've done in the last 2 and 1/2 years since Wendell died, My eyes have aged and I've even thought of getting an eyelift. As I'm healing inside, I want to reflect that on the outside and reclaim the way I looked before my world collapsed. At 64, I feel I still have so much more living to do. The wrinkles we aquire at our age are a roadmap of all of the good times and the bad times. The smile lines and the crinkles at the corners of our eyes showed we have laughed and the and the crepeiness shows how much we've rubbed our tears away. If we could take the wisdom we have in these years and get back some of your youthful appearance from yester-year, we'd have the world in the palm of our hands, wouldn't we? I loved this video, Susan! You put a voice to what we feel. Thank you! Love and hugs to you and Desi! xox Colleen

Oh Colleen...you have been through it and back again...not a day goes by where I don't think of you. You used to take us through your life with your husband and home..you all were part of us and we grieve with you. Has it really been 2 and half years? And you made it...you have your beautiful spirit and home...you landed on your feet...it perhaps must feel like a dream at times looking back? I saw Bill tonight at the home and I fell asleep there with him...I just was exhausted and when I woke up he said " this is the happiest day of my life",,,,and so we go on..this long good-bye. I will never forget how kind you were to me about losing BIll to divorce...and now, how you give me strength that life finds a way. You are ready to start a new chapter in your life...and I want to come along. Love you, always...Sues

I lost my husband this year. The eyes will never recover. I’m hoping there is recovery as you speak of. If only Clinique made a heart cream. I’ll be 64 next month. I hope one day I can see my future again. Hang in there. There is a reason for everything. I was blessed with 33 years with my Bill, but as you know it’s never enough time.

@@kathymitchell8666 Hi Kathy! I'm so sorry for your loss. There are just no words, as I know what you're going through. It leaves such a huge void. My husband died on March 25th in 2017 and I'm just now starting to feel semi-normal again. You start to forget what "normal" feels like and it's like you have to create your new normal. Surround yourself with good friends and family. Eventually, the fog will start to lift. Sending prayers your way!

I would never go back in time if it is a repeat of the same life...……..However I have a lot of good things to remember, but a whole lot more to forget

I also wanted to tell you how beautiful you are. It’s not just your looks, it’s your spirit. You have star 🌟 quality. You shine from within.💕

That is so true, natural charisma!

I didn’t get told I was pretty when I was very young. I had parents that were all tied up in their own problems, and though they loved us, They were very self absorbed. We were poor, and I had a rich cousin that was one year older than me that I never, ever met. She would sent me bags and bags of clothes every summer, when her mom would take her school shopping. I can’t tell you how it made me feel to wear nice things to school after years of being made fun of for wearing old clothes. I felt pretty. So, someone made me feel pretty, and I never got to tell her thank you....

@Beach Town Reseller. I, too, had a 'simple' life as a child...I had a cousin who was an only child and both parents had 'good' jobs. She would send me bags of 'barely-worn' clothes. I loved them! Made me feel SO good. I really loved my cousin for her generosity! Felt like a million dollars!😊

🌷🌸 You’re “One of a kind” Little Poet. The good kind. 🌷🌸

I had a special aunt Ann . She came only a few times a year but took me out of my abusive childhood and made me feel wanted and loved . When she left I was alone once again. Once I left my home at the age of 15 to get away from my father I tried to contact her but was unable to find her. I found out later on decades later that she had passed of cancer. When I learned of her passing a part of me died. She was the closest thing I ever had to a mother even though I only saw her a few times a year . Even though she has been gone for decades the impression she left on me is still there and something that will never leave me . It's amazing how one person can be in your life if only for a short time or even a fleeting moment , and how they can mold and change your entire being. She did that for me . She made what was a horrific childhood and brought light to it . I will never forget her . You are a blessing to us all and I am grateful to have found you .

I only now discovered this. How are you now? I had a very kind Aunt too. A step Aunt. That marriage didn't last for my mother so the step dad and my step Aunt disappeared but I will never forget her kindness to me. She was so kind and I think of her all the time. My sincerest love to you 🙏

I didn’t have a special aunt or anyone in my life to make me feel special. I came from a family that didn’t compliment or show outward displays of love. Unfortunately, I did some of the same things to my daughters simply from living how I was raised. Somehow, between raising my daughters and when my grandchildren were born something changed. I vowed to make my granddaughter feel beautiful at all times. I still do and I try and lift my daughters up. If I could go back in time I would be a more hugging, touching uplifting mother. Although, my daughters turned out wonderful! ❤️

You saw her magic...i bet she had no idea of her own power her own magic..her own lasting impression she made on you...and 53 yrs later ....youd be sharing her magic with so many others weekly all over the country

Susan...You are so special. I could listen to your stories for hours upon hours. You are beautiful...inside and out. Bless you, Laura

I had a wonderful Aunt, my mother’s sister. She was married 3 times but, never had any children if her own. She loved me unconditionally. I once told her If my mother wasn’t my mother I would want her to be. I always felt her love even at times When I didn’t feel it from others. I never knew my Dad. I was 65 before I ever had. Photo of him. She would tell me about him. My sweet single mother worked two and three jobs just to pay the rent and feed us so she didn’t have lots of extra time on her hands so when my Aunt Hansel came it was a fun time. She would let me sleep with her and she taught me how to embroider at the age of 5. Every summer until the age of 13 she would take me to spend a week with her. Next to my mother I loved her more than anyone. I called her Aunt Hansie. She was overweight but, I thought she was beautiful.

Oh Sues❤I had Great Aunt Mag❤ Aunt Mag wasn't fashionable. Her husband, a house painter who taught his dog Rock to climb a ladder, died suddenly. Aunt Mag didn't know how to drive and had never paid a bill. Her sister, my grandmother, taught her how to move forward. I lived with her a whole year when I was in 5th grade after her loss. She learned it all. She never had children except for me. Later, she sold her home. I would spend the night in her one room living quarters. She always had chocolate covered cherries and let me stay up to watch X-1. Yes, I was her daughter by choice. Unconditional love makes up for things missing in a young life. To all the Aunts out there, we love you.

My sister was 20 years older than me. One of my sweetest memories is standing by her at about 5 years old, watching her apply makeup and as she put lipstick on she looked down at me. She bent over and painted my lips. That was 74 years ago but I’ve never forgotten how special I felt. She died 17 years ago.❤️

I'd love to go back about 15-20 years to be a better wife and mother. The saying 'if I knew then what I know now' comes to mind. Thanks for this video. Happy upcoming week to you and Desi!

Thank you for this 💗. You just saved my life! I really needed to hear this 💓.

St. John's wort. This is an herb used not just in eye cream, but it is VERY EFFECTIVE as an anti depressant! Good to know Clinique is so savvy!

Never go back or look back not even for a second wind. Every experience has made me who I am and given eye two beautiful little girl humans who inspire me.

loved this. Yes my grandmother made me feel unconditinely loved ! i am 70 now and still draw on her love when feeling unloved

You always make me laugh & cry!! Yes, I remember those 2 ladies of tv !! Your skin is so radiant. I am always looking for a great eye cream & concealer, thanks for the tips. A scratch behind the ears to Desi!! Be blessed.

Sarah still seems to be magically over you. Deep In your heart for her and in your love for music. If I went back in time I would change a few events but I love who I am and would not want to change anything. You certainly have made me think a bit Susan. Hugs!! ❤️❤️

I agree...weight loss later in life can really draw a face........

When I was 10yrs old, I moved with my mom and dad to Los Angeles from Oakland. The school I went to was very sophisticated, compared to the one I came from. I mean the kids were more advanced and ahead of Oakland. Also, my Aunt Blanche would visit us and always brought me beautiful gifts from Robinson’s dept store! Beautiful “babydoll” pj’s and such. So I know what you enjoyed with your aunt. So fortunate to have such a relative in a young girls life!

A little girl only sees the magic and love that her Auntie shares with her.

Oh! I watch the Andy Griffith Show twice a day on weekdays. Just love it. Aunt Bee was 54? Boy! I am almost 54. We sure have come a long way in fashion, hair coloring and everything. 😨😏

This has been a tough week. A lot of family drama regarding illness and I learned someone I worked with years ago passed. As we age, (I'm 65), these periods occur more and more and I'm finding that prayer helps. Thanks so much for your wonderful videos, they are so thoughtful informative.

BTW, I love Bye Bye Undereye concealer. Yes, it's a little thick but you can build it plus, I use the brush it came with. A drop goes a long way.

You really look younger than when you first started your channel...well done! Not just on this video, but I noticed it previously.

Sorry to hear about your aunt. I also had an aunt who would put lip gloss and a bit of makeup on me at 13, and we would use facial masks together. She was fun, feminine and so pretty, and died too young at 49 from cancer. She treated me like a young lady, not a child, when I really needed that.

I'm so happy to have found you! I'm 62 yr old widow that lives and cares for my 88 yr old mother for 9 yrs. I love your soft voice and glimpses of the places you go! Hoping that one day I can reinvent my life when the time comes. I feel I've lost myself thru these years. Thank you for the tips on looking younger! Will be trying that mask for sure! And I love Desi! Looking forward to next week.

I find red lipstick is incredibly aging...makes lips look thin and harsh. Now that I'm in my 50s I stick to pink and neutral lip colors, they make my lips look fuller and softer. 💕

Every little girl needs an aunt Sarah in her life, Marilyn Monroe has a quote, every little girl should be told shes pretty, even if shes not.luv to you ane the Des

I don't think it's the dark dotted dress that ages you but the way you wear your hair and your darker roots. Your long light blond hair softens and lights up your facial features.

I just wish I was as brave and confident at twenty something as I am now. I always worried I wasn't "pretty enough", or this or that.....when you get older, it's so FREEING to feel like "don't look if you don't like the way I am".....and with that...you feel so much prettier and confident!! I actually feel prettier at 58 than I did in my twenties.....

Lovely topics today! Will try that mask. I'm starting late today so will try a hydrating mask I bought some time ago and forget to use. I'm glad your aunt Sara had someone like you to cherish her - and vice versa. I didn't have anyone who made me feel special. My father never told me I was beautiful. My mother always told me how big my nose was.

Yes , my Grandma made me feel very special. It meant the world to me then and still does to this day .

Aww, gosh. What a beautiful and sad story about your aunt. She must have been so young.

You really are looking younger and more beautiful as you age. And whatever you’ve been doing with your hair these past few months, we’ll just keep doing it. I just love how it frames your face so softly. I love the Clinique eye cream too...it’s my holy grail!! I watch Dominique and Erin (Busbee Style) too, they’re both fantastic. Continued prayers for Bill🙏🏻. Xoxo

Oh I look so forward to your videos. They always include something precious to think about... I had an aunt whose company I truly enjoyed as a young girl. We used to put on my Donna Summers Bad Girls album and sing and dance in circles in my living room. No one understood her. Everyone saw her as nuts. I didn't. I loved her laughter and her stories. I loved her company. I love her. She passed away at a mental institution about 4 years ago. Thank you, Susan, for taking me down memory lane. I want to listen to Donna Summers 'Our love, will last forever!' 😊 I am turning 54 early next month. I decided to start an anti-aging regime last weekend -- after watching a bunch of yt videos on the subject myself. Haha! Maybe I should listen to Cher's 'If I can turn back time...' lol! Oh! I got a sample of this cleansing hair paste by Christophe Robin and I tried it 2 days ago and I love it!! It made my fine hair so bouncy and voluminous! ! When I got it, I thought it was so weird and grainy. But as soon as it comes in contact with your wet hair, it turns into this fantastic bubbly lather. Its $53 for almost 9 oz. But i have short hair so i don't have to use much. I put on some Living Proof's anti frizz cream and use my hot curling brush and my hair looks fantastic! Getting older is fun when you get to play with beauty products and give yourself spa treatments at home. I am loving it! Its all relaxing and decadent. 💖👍 God bless you and adorable lil Desi always. 🙏🙏💖☝

My Aunt Fran was my special person. Her and my uncle never had children of their own and my sister, brother and I were the only nieces and nephew that lived close. When my uncle would go hunting for the weekend, she would always come and pick me up and take me home with her. She taught me to cook and plant gardens. The one big thing was she had a huge wood dressing table in her bedroom and she would let me sit there and play with all of her makeup and jewelry for as long as I wanted. I loved that dressing table! About ten years ago, my husband went to an estate sale and came home with almost an exact replica of my aunts dressing table including the huge mirror that went with it. That dressing table is my most prized position and every day when I sit in front of that mirror, it transports me back to the 12 year old girl playing with my aunts makeup and jewelry. Hope you and Dezi have a wonderful week. Many hugs - Barbara

I think polka dot clothing is pretty. It was your hair that made you look older. It was too severe. I bought a maxi dress to wear around the house last month. I put it on & started laughing so hard. My girlfriend asked me what’s so funny. I said oh my God I look like Mrs Roper. We both had a good laugh. I put it in my closet & haven’t worn it but once. Ten years isn’t enough for me. I want to go back to my twenties. There’s so many things I would change about myself. Weight loss & exercise would be very important to me. Every time I would exercise throughout my life I would hurt myself. Not that I did something wrong , it’s just my bad back & knees. I would need the information that’s available now. I had four Aunts that were special to me. Three were my Mom’s sisters. There was a lot of love in my family. My other Aunt was my Dad’s sister. She made me laugh so hard all the time. She also would make me cream puffs from scratch. She never made them for anyone else. Lots of hugs & kisses from all my Aunts. I miss that so much. Love you, Lucy

Susan thank you so much for always making me smile. Life right now has me spiraling out of control my 46 yr old son had serious thyroid cancer surgery, my 43 yr old son finds out 12/11 if he also needs thyroid surgery. And I’ve just fallen again this past Thursday. So say I’m emotional is an understatement, but your personality has been so uplifting for me. Thank you Susan & Desi.

I would never want to go back and live school and work years again.

If I could apply "lessons I've learned" I would go back and live richer and better. I can't so that is my aim for the present and future. I also carry a memory of a profound comment I received when I was 14 years old. It was Easter Sunday and though I was walking effortlessly in both my first and brand new pair of red and white heels (as my smart Mother made me practice wearing them at home first) my carriage was lacking quite a bit. This was due to the fact that at the time I was taller than almost all the boys and girls I knew and wanting to fit in I guess. Anyway a lady at our church named Betty Spence, whom I secretly admired from a far for her beautiful way of dressing noticed my slumping and took a moment to speak a few words to me that morning at church. Betty who was petite simply said tall girls wear clothes best, stand tall Pamela. From then on I started standing taller. And to this day anytime I am feeling unattractive I still hear Betty's speaking to me.

I cannot believe how many women do not wear make up and also are not interested in it ! I feel that all women can benefit from wearing make up. you will look better and feel better ! and also moisturize and please use sunscreen. It's not too hard too do

Love to hear you speak of your auntie Sarah that way, and you picked up so much from her., there’s no judgement by you , you knew the real person heart, cherish those memories and thank you for sharing it.

Greatest video ever, all are great, uplifting. I am 73, can’t stop laughing about Aunt Bee. Your a special friend and we have never meant.❤️

My 92 aunt Mary who really is a 2nd cousin made and makes me feel special. For my birthday she would take me to downtown Chicago. Let me puck out an outfit and I always picked out a dress at Marshall Fields and the treat me to lunch at the Walnut room. My go to was the salad wedge. Their isn’t anything I can say negative about her. Blessed to have her still in my life. And she was a fashionista in her day.

I did! I had a wonderful Aunt. She was a free spirit. She lived in the “city” and wore short skirts and go go boots. One summer, she rented a hotel room and my sister, two of my cousins, and I got to spend the weekend with her and boy did we have fun! It was an adventure! We laughed and stayed up late. We ate candy and acted silly. I’ll never forget it. She was a one of a kind!

i loved the story about your aunt sara! it really just reinforces the fact that we are better off when we don't judge or even question people, and just accept them the way they are.

You’re so beautiful not only on the outside, but your inside. Thank you for sharing your special story about Aunt Sarah. My granny was so special to me when I was younger. She raised me and we just get each other even more than my mom. I miss her dearly as she passed away too. But I keep the good precious memories to my heart and alive. 💕

Wow! What a story about your aunt. You continue to celebrate her and what she meant to you. You must have been very special to her too. Sad about her life and the way she lived and died. A lot of times young women get involved in things like that and it's very hard to break free once you're in. Shud make us feel grateful that our lives turned out differently. It's not difficult to make one wrong decision that determines the rest of our lives. I'm glad you never let knowing change the way you felt about her. If you loved her then she truly was a beautiful person. You are such a beautiful soul inside and out.

My favorite Auntie was my Aunt Jean, my mother's sister. She was so elegant and traveled extensively. I would love to hear about the places she had visited; she always explained her travels so eloquently. It was like I had visited too. She was so joyful and despite some significant losses in her life, she was always positive. She loved to give dinner parties and she always included my cousins and me. She passed away 3 years ago and I miss her terribly.

Susan, everyone has an Aunt Sarah. Someone we love who has had a hard life, and so when they pass we don’t celebrate their life, we don’t want their life...but we do celebrate their heart! That one bright loving thing that sets them apart.. their wonderful heart! ❤️❤️

You are so beautiful inside and out, and an amazing storyteller. I don't have anyone who made me feel pretty when I was young, but I loved hearing your story. I hate that you had a bad week, but I hope that all the love people send back to you when you post your videos makes you feel better.

I always love your heartfelt stories about your life. You are so beautiful and deep. I love your channel and if I want to smile and get in touch with my “feels” as my son would say, I can count on you to have an amazing word. ❤️ Thanks for the beauty tips too!

I just love our visits! I feel like we are in the same room. I see a little sadness in your eyes today and I hope it will comfort you to realize how much you mean to me and to the THOUSANDS of others who also enjoy "visiting" with you. My hands give my 61 years away. So much fun this ageing process! The other thing about weight loss in your 60s is when you lose a lot of weight, your wrinkles come out to play. lol. I have too many do- overs to mention, but my work personality and attitude now is so much better than when I was younger but I really miss the freedom of not caring about the future. I had a "sassy" aunt who wore mini skirts and eye makeup and was full of life. I remember my mother judging her as something bad. Looking back on it now, it was the judging that was bad.

Another lovely video. When you were describing your aunt I could have sworn you were describing my grandma when I was little. She was a widow and would take turns with all of six children's families and come stay on alternating weekends. One of my fondest memories is her with her creams, lotions, and perfumes. She was a big Mary Kay fan and talked to me about how to take care of your skin. As I was a big-girl, she made me feel pretty by bringing me these girly things and modeling femininity for me. She was so gracious, yet had a firecracker spirit. You brought back her presence to me this morning, so thank you.

Oh Susan, I just love your videos. I always look forward to Friday’s so I can watch your latest one. You’re beautiful inside and out. I’m so sorry about your Aunt Sarah. She sounds like such a sweetheart. I wish I had someone like her when I was growing up. I’m definitely going to try the homemade mask. And I want to get some of the other items you shared with us. You and Desi have a wonderful week. Xoxo

Geez!!! Susan!! Aunt Sarah, very sad story... but you recall her with total love!!! Things happen that we can only accept and understand when we’re older, huh. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for sharing . You look beautiful 💛 . I found you tonight and watched a few videos so far ❤️ I’ve 👍🏻🔔 . I’m 52 and I’ve had my share of broken hearts and I’ve let myself go. I always wear makeup but me as a woman who’s was radiant from inside has gone . You have truly uplifted me tonight . It’s made me think I may have another 30 years plus or even if it was only 3 yrs ...I need to pull myself together and still be the best I can be . I felt mix emotions about your auntie..I was so sorry her life was not as long as could of been but truly grateful that she made you feel the way she did and also you still feel that way when you think of her..and you made me feel how happy she made / makes you even now and I feel privileged . Thank you . truly I’ve had a hard time trying to find me again but after your videos I’m determined to not just find me but enhance me so I’m happy again .thank you .💛

You are so delightful..... endlessly. Thank-you for sharing yourself with us 💐

You are amazing. I so love spending time watching your videos. Keep them coming and I’ll keep watching 💖. My Grama was my special person. We just had an incredible bond that I miss but I have so many wonderful memories. Thanks again for being you. And hey Dezi, your so handsome.

If I could go back with the wisdom I have now......I most definitely would. Thank you Susan for being so vulnerable and real. I learn so much from you each week. I would love a video from Dez's point of view. I bet he would have a lot to teach us.

So lovely I did have a relative that took a similar path to aunt Sarah’s. It was my sister. I always spent time with her and she would make me feel special! I’m definitely going to try some of these suggestions! It is such a wonderful treat to watch you Susan and Desi well he’s the cutest little guy! Have a great week!

Thank you for your sensible, down to earth advice.

No, I’ve enjoyed each stage of life as it comes ❤️

I’d like to go back 22 years and know what I know now 🙂

Oh....that would be my Aunt Ann....she never forgot us kids at Christmas. I couldn't wait to open up her present to see what special something she bought for me. And i always loved whatever it was....she played a big part in my life showing me Kindness towards others. And that is my biggest effort at the holidays, to make sure that i show that same kindness to others also. Love your videos, and keep dancing !!

My lovely lady was my cousin June. She was amazing. She taught me to stick up for myself. Told me I was pretty. I loved her. She was so funny. She always made me laugh and was so upbeat. My mother said she was not a proper lady. I loved her. She was wonderful. I always wanted to be just like her. She died when I was 22 of cancer. She was beautiful. I loved her so much. I never forgot her. Thank you for a great video.

Oh my how you capture emotions. Aunt Sara brought you joy. That’s all that matters. Some might say we all sell ourselves at some time or another. I can just see you and your Aunt enjoying life. Love your videos. Keep them coming.

Thank you Kathy so much...you sound like such a lovely woman!

Love your videos, they are so peaceful ! I had an Aunt that loved to do my hair and told me how pretty I was. It didnt last for long maybe a couple of years off and on. I think having a young girl needs a women that can spend time with her to teach her things not only about beauty but also life ! My granddaughter is 10 and loves to hear my stories, she hangs on every word, sometimes I have to make them up because I have told her so many and then some I cannot tell her. lol When I make them up I always make sure there is a lesson or a morale of the story to be learned.

I agree. There is nothing like Clinique All About Eyes. I have been using it for over 25 years.

I cried for aunt Bae, she sounds facinating, thanks for sharing that

I would go back only if one thing could have changed... but I had no control over it. I don’t remember the bad... I really do remember the good ... the bad brings me down ... I don’t like that... it’s just easier for me to try and remember the good and let the wild prairie winds take the bad with them. ❤️

You are so lucky that you had Aunt Sara! She sounds like a great memory. And yes I also had an aunt who loved make up and made me feel special.

I really enjoyed this video. You put a lot of thought, effort and time into it and appreciate it.

Oh Sues I'm so glad you went to see Sarah. My son and I go to see her whenever she's anywhere she's near or far....lol. she puts it out there and doesn't hold back...does she? What a woman!!!! You look beautiful and glowy today.....😂 🤗

Just keep going for me. I wouldn’t want to go back and do it again.

I had an Aunt Lola, my grandmothers' sister. She was a beautician and had a hair salon in Beverly Hills. She did the hair for some of the stars. When she would come to my grandmothers for holidays she always made a big deal of my sister's and me; putting lipstick on us and telling us how beautiful we were. She always had her blonde hair pulled up in lovely, soft curls and so sofisticated. She died when I was 8 or 9, but had quite an influence on me, which I remember to this day. I think we all can or do have more of an influence on others than we think we do.

Ps. I would go back so I could make better choices but on the other hand I’m 70 n well wouldn’t want to go thru what young people have to now a days ❤️🤗

Thank you for sharing your precious memories of your Aunt with us. My sister and I had a 4th grade teacher who was like an a big sister to us. I haven't seen her in years but she impacted my childhood so much. She was such a blessing to us. She never had children of her own. I guess you could say her student's were her children. I looked up to her so much,

Thank you for sharing your aunt Sarah with us. Wouldn't we all want to be remembered that way?

Oh yes! My aunt Sylvia that I was named after was so much fun and always wore dangling earrings and red lipstick. She had a fabulous sense of humor that kept us all laughing. Thank you for sharing the story of your aunt Sarah with us. Precious memories. Love to you and Desi with huge hug’s.❤️❤️🤗🤗❤️❤️🤗🤗

My Grandma Dorothy. I heard terrible things about her, how she was an alcoholic etc. But she loved me. I was her special girl. She was so special to me. We were buddies. She died when I was 10, of liver failure. She was such a bright light in my young life. I was devastated by her untimely death, but I do understand more now. Still love her dearly. Forever 💕❤️♥️

Your bare skin is exquisite. I’d go back in time in a heartbeat and do things differently

My Aunt Carol was my encourager.. She was pregnant 7 times with two live births (sons). She wanted a girl desperately. Only the last miscarriage was a girl they named Laura. Aunt Carol had a tough life. My Uncle was an alcoholic. They divorced and each married others in their middle age. Then later on, came back together and stayed together until his death in 1997. She passed away in 2014. I was the oldest child in my family and she would tell me things like "You could be a model" or "With your long fingers you should play piano." We lived close to them and saw them a lot. Her working experience was running the linen department in a fine department store. She was always very thin and dressed very classy. She always tried to make her nieces feel special. She did get two granddaughters and greats she doted on.. Her oldest granddaughter is named Laura.

You're sweet aunt Carol was a true gem and very special. Thanks for sharing your wonderful story, it touched my heart. God Bless.🙏🏻❣️🙏🏻

I had a great aunt too that made me feel special. I forgot about her until you were sharing. She was beautiful, elegant, dark skinned beauty. I was the "ugly duckling", but she always made me feel beautiful and special. I thought she was perfect. Later, I found out she was an alcoholic, a very troubled beauty. I never knew. I don't know what happened to her, I was too young, but I remember how she made me feel. Thank you for sharing and jogging a memory :).

Thank you so much for stopping in and spending time with me. Friday nights always seem so long and lonely. Only 3 or 4 more months and i will be moving into my new home. Plan on making lots of new friends. It's an over 55 community. Thank you also for all the good advice on taking care of ourselves. Have a wonderful weekend "sweet spirit".

My great grandmother made me feel special by her kind acts and words, imagine four kids a small room and an 85 year old in her apron bringing us all bowls of warm soup on a winters night, it was a place of refuge when things got tough at home, you could sit and. feel peace. She was an angel, and you included the arms of an angel track at the end of the video. My thoughts on looking ten years younger are these. Exercise, including stretching and strength exercise. Posture when walking. Laughter a lot of that, having a younger mindset, trying new things and being positive; and of course looking after your skin... Have a great week Susan

Just LOVED it all....! You crack me up. The last song she is singing is one of my favs. Love her voice. Hugs to you and Desi 🤗🤗😃

After watching your blog on Now Voyager, I watched it. A wonderful movie. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. Concerning women's ages in movies/tv shows, in the movie Sunset Boulevard with Gloria Swanson, I could not believe how old the charactor was to be. I won't give it away. Boy, have we women come a long way. You are a wonderful example of aging gracefully and looking the best we can. Thank you for sharing your tips!

This made my day with wonderful memories! My Aunt Gertie was your Aunt Sarah! Every memory and thought of her is filled with love, hugs and smooches! As she grew older I loved and admired how her grey hair was full of sheen and sparkled in the sunshine. I now have that shiny grey hair that makes me feel like a queen!

Please share your hair tricks! I have medium long hair and I wear mine up a lot. Yours is beautiful both down and up but I love how it looks pulled up. Please share how you pull it up and what hair accessories you love!

I love your videos, the music and beautiful scenery! I also love how you share your life, keep the beautiful videos coming!!

I’ve found mixing the foundation with a drop of jahoba oil is amazing. I think Aunt Bee was made to look older. Her skin was beautiful.

My grandmother always made me feel special. My momma went through a rough time in her life. She loss the love of her life, her third husband which was my step up dad in car accident then shortly after her son, my brother died in a car accident. The sorrow over took her and shortly after she became a heroine addict. So for me, it was my grandma who showed up a couple of times a year and made everything seem okay. She would fill our ice box with food and our hearts with joy and hope for a better life. My grandma was amazing. I’m glad you had your Aunt depositing truth into your heart Susan. You are beautiful. Thank you for your video and stories. Have a blessed weekend. 😀

Sweet Susan. I have watched your channel for about two years. My best friend and flame twin died of Lewy Body Dementia in 2017. You help me see things in a much more beautiful and POSITIVE way. Thank you for the kindness I see and feel in you. All the great skincare and tips I’ve learned from you are in many ways incredible. But I would simply watch you because I always feel more at peace. Love the music you have playing. Just love it all. I recently had to take a retin a break and I’m trying the rosehip seed oil. It’s wonderful! Please know you have helped me and I’m sure so many others. This has been a hum dinger of a year. Almost died from sepsis, then three pancreatic procedures to try to stop pre-pancreatic cancel. I’m VERY lucky to be here. I’m 68 and feel much more confident and happy with myself in years. Larry died almost three years ago. But I’d do it all again except for the damage it brought to him and to me. I was happy to be able to keep him with me but I was a broken person through it. Didn’t mean to dig such a hole. I love your content. You are such a friend. Thank you dear!

Oh Vicki....You just helped me see life in a more precious way. You have been through so much and I am so lucky you found me....we help each other....this life is so much easier when we have each other...

Oh lawd....she did it again. 😭😭 Aunt Sara, bless her. So sorry you had a bad week, yet you are “glowing” in the video! That print blouse looks fabulous with your beautiful makeup. My special relative were my older cousins from “the big city” who would spend the summer with us. Always made a shy tom boy girl feel special.

You had a challenging week? I wish I could have made it better for you. However I think you must have pulled through it with flying colors. You are uplifting and encouraging to me. Seems you come around with your lovely attitude and encouraging words just when I need them. I needed them this week. Thank you.

My oldest sister is 17 years older than me. She moved far away when I was only two, but came to visit. She was so glamorous to me and I too wanted to be like her. She wore delicate hair net bonnets that tied under the chin and came in delicious colors like peach and cream to match her beautiful tight waisted dresses. She gave me one of those bonnets and I imagined I was Audrey Hepburn! She told me I was pretty, she has continued to be supportive and we are so close now. Thank goodness we only live a few miles apart now. Thank you for bringing that memory forward. You are a balm to my heart. Bless you 💖
