as_it_is - my adventure continues (part 4)

So, W was over to help do some of the yard mowing. She was wearing something snug. She really has gained a lot of weight for her. I knew from seeing her regularly that she had gained some weight, but didn't realize how much until this outfit which didn't hide. I don't think I've ever seen her with a gut and flabby in the rear. She was a little soft when I first met her & she was in another long-term R. But ever since I've been with her, if she puts on a couple pounds, she cuts back on deserts and snacks, and takes care of it. I think it is partly cooking for herself, partly single parenting half time (you get overwhelmed more easily and opt for the quick & unhealthy in experience), and drinking more than she ever did.

She still can dress to conceal, and isn't really that overweight, just compared to all the rest of the time we've been together. Tt really is sad to see herself let herself go. Neither of us can take as good care of ourselves as we did when we lived together and were able to cooperate better on parenting & chores. Definitely some depression going on.

She has also been looking older lately. It's like she has aged about 5 years in the last year. It's not the appearance change that bothers me. H*ll, I may never get to see her naked again, or any other fun stuff. It is that it is a sign of the toll all of this is taking on her is difficult to watch.
