Me too! Then it started to go up 102 and then, when I got to 109 I started to think I was FAT! Ha! If I weighed 109 now, I would look sickly. Won't say what I weigh now, but it's a whole lot healthier.

If you want a slap back into reality, just try cleaning out closets. Yikes! I've been cleaning one of the spare rooms that's mainly a catch-all for anything I don't know what to do with; i.e. a 'junk room'. A few years back my oldest (43) found a few pairs of her old tattered jeans that she wore in high school that she wanted to show her kids. For some reason I just never had the heart to throw them out. Anyway, she held one up and it was sooooo skinny, we both just looked at each other in astonishment.

So yesterday I came across 2 black leather skirts (that I'd never wear again but just couldn't get rid of) and 1 'pleather' mini-skirt that I wore as a Halloween outfit when I was in my early 50's. I went as a hooker with fishnet stockings, spiked heels, the low-cut top, the heavy makeup, the whole ball of wax. I remember buying the skirt and cutting it really short. What gave me a dose of reality was how SMALL the skirt was and that, holy crap, I'd actually FIT into that! I also found dresser drawers with shoe boxes full of photos so I took a quick gander and, in one of the boxes, the pictures of the Halloween party I'd gone to with that outfit on was right in front. Oh, boy, what a laugh I had! (Oiy! Then I went and took two Advil.)

Don't know if it is good food, good living or what. But things change!

I also have an HD tv and non HD channels are filmed in the square format, for the most part, and when you set the DVR or tv to fill the screen it will stretch the picture making people look wider.

I have my DVR set to stretch so channels like the standard food network everyone looks chubby, but when I switch to food network HD shot in the wide format everyone looks normal, but with a lot of detail (not good for some!)

I'm really a leg/can man, and she can stand a few pounds without looking freakish.

The too-skinny look bores me to death...nothing to GRIP...uh...well, you know...jeez, a man likes something to SQUEEZE...sorry, that's just the way it is...so, ladies...do NOT try to get rid of that jiggle in your thighs...PLEASE!!!! I know a lady who is in her forties, wears a bikini, and is SO tight, she does not jiggle at ALL! ANYwhere!

I HATE that! A woman MUST jiggle! It's not fair! I propose to make it ILLEGAL for women to eliminate their "woman-fat"...really...MEN should not jiggle, and it's disgusting to see it. That's why I'm trying to get back into shape. I may not be the handsomest man, but there is no excuse for being unhealthy.

Ladies, some of us LOVE YOU THE WAY YOU ARE!!!! Some men even love VERY large women, but heart disease and death is not worth that. So you have a little excess, but consider that a man might LOVE that!

Dugger.............you and I need to hang. I'm reading all of that!

Thanks Chap! Really, I really like that pic of Rachael in shorts, sitting on the counter. Yumm-MO!

One of these days, I'm going to go down to the beach with a sign that says:

GIRLS! (18 and over)

We looked at flat panel TV's today. What gorgeous color and clarity! Can't say I'd want one as our TV is amazing and a big set....48"? I don't know for certain, it's just big!

I'll tell you one thing. People looked great.

Then we looked at the new computers. Geesh! You no sooner buy one and a newer updated model comes out that is SO much better.

Technology is expensive!
