Hot? Or not.
Unless you mean peri-menopausal hot flashes. Or the summer heat here in Georgia. Those, I've got. My mojo? Gone.
Long ago I wrote about being young & beautiful. Lately I've been feeling that those days are far, far behind me. It adds to my generalized sadness. I don't think I've morphed into some heinous beast, I'm just not as confident in my appearance as I used to be, and confidence is somewhere around 90% of good looks, IMO.
No idea how to get back to having "it." Could be that that stage of my life is over.

I feel the same way. I used to keep myself up appearance wise. Now it is a chore just to wash my hair and pull it back into a pony tail. Although I did get a manicure and pedicure and that made me feel better. If I could now lose about 30 pounds I would be great. When can I go to the gym? When you figure this out, please tell me.
I want 'it' back too. I'm 40 and feel washed up, tired and ready to be put to pasture. But I don't want to feel this way. I hate it. I went to a reunion for my husband's side of the family recently and some of his cousins, all of whom are older than I am, looked great. It made me feel dumpy and aged just to be near them. So I'm not sure age has anything to do with it.
