Too funny! If anyone ever tries to mug you, just make that face. You'll see how handy that expression comes in. But seriously, you are lovely. Nice eyes, looks like you have beautiful skin, glasses look great and I like the way your hair frames your face. It takes time but I hope you'll be able to get used to your new dentures.

Thank you so very much for your lovely comments, especially in the "face" ha, of the picture I chose.
Thank you also for the encouragement about the dentures; I love them so much (had dreams of having little rhinestons dental-glued to the little bars, but alas), and have had several fittings and one trip back to the lab so far. Right now, they feel like they just need a little more tweaking in one spot and I'm good.
Sorry to go on about dentures, LOL -- I'm really so thrilled with them; I love all the hardware; I feel like a cyborg.
If I could have made those rhinestones work, I would have added to the fairy-look I'm often going for.. oooo, no, the Medusa look!
It's early. I need coffee.
Thanks again. :)
Oh yes, LOL I'll try that should I ever get menaced and am without my Boxer. If that doesn't work, maybe I'll try "The Scream," and failing that... barking like my Boxer? LOL

EDIT: Adding Stuff
EDIT: Yet, more typos. Would you believe I proof and edit these posts? - I blame the drugs. I'm on drugs. lol

I took this selfie in April of last year, a couple of months after my 74th birthday. I wanted to see if I could do the wrap the way I've seen other
"Sistahs" do it. Wrapping doesn't come easy for me so I used two pieces...the first things I found that matched which were a bonnet and thin scarf. They come pre-wrapped but the ones I've seen are too flat to the head. I posted it on Facebook and something funny happened. My Black friends and relatives thought the look was great on me. My White friends....not so much. One responded that she didn't want to offend me but to her it looked like I was wearing whipped cream on my head. I got a good laugh when I read her comment. I responded that she was absolutely right and assured her that these wraps come in different colors and patterns. I told her that she didn't offend me at all but gave me my first laugh of the day. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Truth be told, I'd never wear this kind of thing out of the house anyway because I'm afraid it would unravel.

Well, it looks great; shows off your face beautifully. And I like the earrings you chose to go with.
It's too bad you couldn't wear it out of the house because it's a nice look. Maybe tons of matching hair pins?
BTW, freaking no way you're 74. Damn, woman. :)

Seventy-four? Have you been swallowing the youth pills? You look fabulous.

Diva, to you and everyone else that made such complimentary comments of the above photo, thank you all, very much, most appreciated.
 

@dseag2 @horseless carriage @Medusa @RFW Thank you so much for your kind, lovely comments❣️ Horseless...dseag2 hit the nail on the head when he said "Black don't crack" LOL He knows the deal. :D Melanin has a natural anti aging affect for most people of color, unless we've been really unkind to ourselves (lifestyle bad habits). Also, I almost always smile in photos...it's my "face lift".
@charry Looking good!

Is this who I think it is?
He was here in Maine.
Funny, thing Joe Schomaker, something like that, someone I met while outside passing by on his rounds about town.
I mentioned about a book at that time out there, titled, " Emma's something, he immediately, seemed to had disappeared each time I would be reminded as now, I would try to make a point to locate him at his local watering holes that I had seen him in while passing on my way to the post office.
I never did find him, then e v en when he did mention he was the babysitter for her them......if you know what I am referring about then you will know his disappearance probably was planned.

You have such a good sense of humor. I laughed at "Golliwog". I'll bet you're still beautiful. And I love your Wheaton Terrier. What an adorable face! Do like Diva. She wraps a pretty scarf around her hair, twists it around, and tucks it in...lovely.

To buy one would be $1000.00 correct if I am wrong

No way I'm going to post a photo. I look like an old white woman with shorter hair than a Golliwog. If I ever look like myself again, I will. So far, my hair is about 1" - 1.5" after it fell out during chemo. I no longer wear a chemo cap to cover the baldness since I am not bald.

Being bald has it's benefits. It is so much easier to take care of hair that isn't there -- but my head looked like a thumb with a face. I avoided mirrors and didn't see that my hair was growing back until the front quadrant of my head had about 3/4" of hair. I was so surprised, I started haunting the mirror to so I could watch each hair erupt. I just wish all the haired areas were the same length. It is still too short to get it cut. I think it looks like a lopsided crew cut right now. But I don't care cuz I got hair!

I will post a photo of my beautiful to me dog, a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, aged 10.66. Even though the groomer didn't do a stellar job on his head last week. It's too long. But I suspect he was doing somersaults on the bed before my daughter took the photo. He does that when he is joyously celebrating something I am not supposed to do -- feeding him a bit of people food. Then I get into trouble with my daughter because he still has 5 lbs. to lose. (I think 9, but I don't tell my daughter that. I want to live!)
