I fear I have reached the point in my life where all my pants/shorts must be made of that fabulous stretchy material that makes it so you can gain weight and retain water without having to buy a whole new wardrobe...
What's it called.....
Wait...let me check the tag in my pants....
Oh yes.... Spandex!
I only need 1% of the stuff in my pants.... It doesn't seem like much.... But OH the freedom when you add it into the mix!
Right about now I would give my first born for the chance to meet the genius that discovered it!
Today, we had a preview of how warm our summer is going to be and I broke down and got out my pile of shorts from last year.
In the past I have managed to lose enough weight to wear the shorts from the year before.
Not this year. I tried on every single pair and not one would allow me to button them up!
Sometime over the winter myass backside decided to relocate a little lower and my hips have decided they are all too comfortable with the extra few pounds of meat I packed on.
Apparently, year 39 is the year you put away those cute girly girl shorts and opt for something a little more....well....appropriate for your age.
Gone are the tighter t-shirts and shorter shorts.
Oh, who am I kidding, it happened last year but I wiggled (and jiggled) my way into those shorts and t-shirts despite the muffin top screaming at me to 'please for the love of God, wear something that fits! You're embarassing us all!"
I was kind of hoping (most likely like every other woman on the planet reaching 40) that the Universe had forgotten I was getting up there in age. I was kind of hoping it would give me another couple of years grace before things started to go downhill...
Since I love to look upon the positive in every situation. I will end this blog post with this thought...
SHOPPING TRIP!!!!!! woot woot!

Don't worry, Jenn. you are still beautiful inside and out :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've had waaaay too many threesomes with Ben & Jerry this past winter. And whoever invented Spandex should be given a Nobel Prize. If you wear a skirt made of bacon though, I've heard those are stretchy and that the men love it!
ReplyDeleteMarisa; If I wore a skirt of bacon, I'd be missing some legs! :) lol
