Chuck handed me a section of the newspaper the other day and said, “I saved this for you.”
Headline: 2009’s swimsuits accept your imperfections.
Article highlights:
“…moderate shaping to power control…”
“…stomach, rear, and side love-handles…”
“…skin oozes out elsewhere…”
“…popping out…”
“…don’t kid yourself that you can hide it…”
Hrrrmmmm.
Getting ready.
BigHugs: You have a hole in your undies.
Me: I do?
BigHugs: Yeah. I know, Mom! Next time we go to the store we can see if there are other big undies there that are your size. Is that a great idea?
Me: Big undies? Is that what I need?
BigHugs, smiling: Uh-huh.
Harumph!

Stop staring at me.
Happy Birthday, Susan!

“Skin oozes out everywhere” = Nice
It’s hard to keep from staring when you’re face to face with awesomeness!

I wanted to make some comment about how you’re skinny and you don’t even know about skin oozing out everywhere. But then I thought about how it bugs me when I get those comments. Because I may be (relatively) skinny but I’m here to tell you, you just be glad you see me in clothes because it’s not pretty my friends! Not pretty!

Haha! My eyes are totally bugging out. I was hoping it was because I was gazing at Kenny, but no, he was behind me…must be my thyroid condition.

Susan, now I’m wishing I had put “Stop staring at me, Kenny.”
