For years I laughed at Dale when he couldn't read the menu. Now I'm finding my arms stretching out to get it in focus! I remember the first time I wore my "lowest mag" drug store glasses in church as it's now impossible to go back and forth between looking up at the pastor and down at my bible and be able to see anything - I was more self-conscious than I'd like to admit!<br />As for "hip" styles - I just picked the ones with the least amount of frame so they were the least noticeable on my face - seams to work.<br /><br />Although the scale says I'm skinny, a look in the mirror says it doesn't look the same as it did last time I weighed this much! I work out and work out and it still jiggles! What's up with that! Ady snuggles me and says "Mommy, you're squishy!" fortunately she continues with "...and I like it!" I just smile and squeeze her back!<br /><br />My back, hips and knees are in really good shape and for that I am thankful! But then, I am 7 months younger than you!<br /><br />Hey, at the end of the day... You rook Marvoles! You go ahead and hold on to that 49! You wear it well!<br /><br />Happy Birthday!<br /><br /> - GayleneThe Colburnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16218055493884525035noreply@blogger.com
