Ok girls. I need some shopping advice. It is getting to be that time of year again. Where is the best place to by a swim suit? One of my two least favorite things to show for: swimwear and jeans.

you DO sound kick ass- way to go! And you still have your sense of humor, which is great. I really hope there's not an OW.
When the men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go; And you've just had some kind of mushroom And your mind is moving slow; Go ask Alice... I think she'll know.
Flo - We live on water so I'm in a swimsuit non-stop... I ordered the triangle top one-piece (last week)! LoL And, a brown swim skirt to go w/it. I don't actually go IN much, so you have to be cute on the boat and shore!
LOVE THESE!! I had a Spanx one last year and lost it. Odd. they're worth every penny if you wear them a lot.

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
OK, I highly recommend the Spanx suits if you live in them. I order others from Victoria's Secret, and some of my faves are from Lands End! Their slim suits w/the skirts are darling! I always look like Im in a cute summer dress (short, though!). And, anything in teal from them is perfect on me! Oh, wait, you're not blonde, though, but they have awesome royal blues, corals, etc.... You'll be fab! HIGHLY recommend the Lands End suits.
Jeans? I could go on for days!!! LOVE JEANS!

OK, guys... I was trying to make a point w/Fergie on his thread this am, and it becomes a nice update for my thread. Some of you know some of this, but here's the story in entirety!
Long story short.
Last Fri night was my kid's schools big fundraiser/dinner auction. I am on the BOD, and know the student body, parents and administration well (plus, we've had three kids through there!). Well, at the event, I got a little buzzed (SHOCK), and was bet that I couldn't get the new superintendent (10 years younger than me and BUILT) on the dance floor. "Mrs. M, he just WILL NOT dance. He does NOT dance." Yea, OK... Well, needless to say, Mr. Superintendent was dancing w/me w/in a few minutes (Lady Gaga!), and all had a good time.
Fast forward to last night... My S10 was in the school play, and WHO is there... Mr. Superintendent. While waiting for the play to begin, I'm talking to my H, standing, facing the crowd of people. Mr. Superintendent starts waving at me rather obnoxiously. I give him a smile, a wave, ANOTHER smile... (What is up w/this dude's incessant waving and smiling?!?!) OK, so, I give him one final wave and a wink, almost as a dismissal. H wonders who I'm exchanging all of this with???? I say, "Oh, it's Mr. Superintendent, let me go see what the hell he wants... he's waving, and smiling and kind of obnoxious!" I turn around, and H pulls me back by the shoulder, and says, "I'll go see what Mr. Superintendent wants. YOU stay here!"
Mr. Mindfull went over, shook his hand, and they shared a joke, etc...
But, the point of my story is... My H is friendly, helpful, home, present, etc... but has. in the past, claimed to be completely uninterested anymore. "He can't make me happy anymore." Funny, how a few 180's, a lot of patience, some weight loss and confidence return, start to make him interested in whose getting my attention while he's talking to me!
You may THINK she's not interested. But, she was at one point, right?
Sorry so long.
