Couldn’t agree more Julie – have to look on the up sides. Today I am cheering myself with the thought that maybe I’m too old for swine flu and my seven year old is too young.
Old mums (sic) of girls I suspect may have it slightly tougher than those with boys. Every morning in the shower my physical decline is remarked upon in agonising detail. My low carb diet has achieved admirable weight loss around the torso but hasn’t firmed things up, so today’s discussion topic was mum’s floppy legs, with the helpful suggestion that I invest in a bum bra. Not a bad idea really.
bum bra! Patent it now. And send me the first please Ruth.
Of course, my boys have commented on my nasal hair. Long enough to be plaited. Thanks darlings.
