The Truth Hurts

I have recently put on a few pounds. Like enough to go up a pant size.
I figure I am nearing 4o and I have always eaten what I've wanted so this is to be expected.
However, I do not like it one little bit. Mostly because I do not have money for new clothes.

Well the other day I went swimsuit shopping.
Not the most self-esteem building thing to do but it is absolutely necessary if I am to take my children swimming anytime in the near future.
You see I have not purchased a new suit since 2005. Really 2005.

I took Sophie and Sam with me. I am not really sure what I was thinking.
Clearly I was not thinking.

While trying on a suit I heard Sophie giggling behind.
I asked her what she was laughing about.
She proceeded to tell me that my legs are crinkly.

Ouch!

I feel ya! The other day I was snuggling with Julia and she was tracing her fingers over my face and neck. And very matter-of-factly, she said, "You have two chins."

Whee! Good times!
