All Things Warm

April 5, 2007

I love all things warm.

A glass, from the dishwasher.
Clothes straight from the dryer, soft and smelling of Bounce's outdoor fresh scent.
A fuzzy electric blanket, on winter nights.
Creamy corn soup, with big chunks of bread.
A loaf of french bread, freshly baked.
A cup of freshly brewed coffee, after it has sat in the kitchen counter for a while.
A warm shower.
The sun on my face.
A chair, after someone I love has been in it.
Warm lips on my forehead.

That night he asked me to be his girl.

Reclaiming My Waist and My Butt

How I lost my waist and my butt is a long story.  It was sometime between my 30th and 32nd.  Somewhere between the thyroid illness and the misguided belief that I could still eat and drink with abandon, despite the years marching on.

It was while I wasn't looking.

But I am waging a war to reclaim what is rightfully mine:  a rockin' body.  My breasts will always be small.  My ankles will never be as shapely.  My legs have stopped growing where I wished they would go on for miles.  But by god, I will have my waist and my butt back.

Just you wait and see.
