Being fabulous of a 40 to me is reinventing my life after divorce, finding myself again, focusing on my mind, my body and my spirit

I finally know who I am. I feel good in my own skin.. I don't feel the need to explain myself to anyone anymore. I live by the motto keep your heels and your head high always. On your 20s and your 30s you're figuring out what you want and what you don't want and how you want it done but once you get into your 40s, you've kind of established all of that already. I feel very empowered at this time of my life.
How do you stay fabulous?I get Botox every four months I use Henna to color that gray out of my hair. I exercise on a regular basis. I make it a point to get outside and take long walks with my two dogs, stormy and Bruno.. I treat myself once a month to a mani manicure and pedicure. The most important thing that I do to stay, fabulous is keep myself balanced and at peace.. for a long time, I was living my life with no peace, and no real joy. It's taking me a long time to truly feel at peace with myself.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would put the money away for a rainy day. I am the ex-wife of an alcoholic and was the primary breadwinner and this would really help me to retire early and spend more time with my only grandchild Audrey.
