Hey ladies, here are the responses from the women in my family. My aunt Sonija only asked the aunts and the first generation of cousins. She hasn't been able to get a hold of all of them but here are the responses she's collected so far. Some are practical, some are fun and some are pretty awesome. Enjoy! I especially like Amanda and Tasha's final responses...they are so them!

*I love getting my eyebrows and lips waxed. I don’t like the pain so much but sometimes a little pain is necessary for beauty. Once the redness goes away I love how good my brows and clean lips look.
*Never ever feel guilty about spending extra money to get a truly fabulous bra. A bra should not only be comfortable but it should do the job it is intended for:support! Always remember…when girls are happy, your happy! Also having a sexy bra is better than a boring bra. A sexy bra is confidence boosting even if you’re the only one who sees it.

*Buy something new like a new shirt

I totally forgot about the awesomeness of massage! That definitely makes me feel good about myself....heck a trip to the chiropractor can certainly make me more energetic too.
I thought about mentioning something about sexual activity but refrained...glad some people in your family did!
yeah...the women in my family appreciate the value of a healthy sex life. It's probably why there's about a bajillion of us.
Interesting list. I do wash my face every night, but it doesn't help my esteem (I'm battling embarrassing acne right now). I noticed a pattern of lotioning in the responses. I don't lotion my face or body as much as I know I should. Only in the winter do I remember, thanks to the dry air. I like the relationships and sex ones. I think both are key to adult happiness (to an extent, of course). Jenny, it would be fun to survey the women in our family on some things.
