We can have the two 37 year olds hanging with the 31 year old boozing it up to forget our woes of our sagginess. I'm mostly struggling with the jiggle under my arm when I blow dry my hair. But I solved the problem, not by going to the gym but by never drying my hair anymore.

I would have climbed more mountains, danced harder, walked more miles, biked that long bike trail, back packed through Europe, worn my high heels, hand wrote more letters, written a novel, learned to knit or play the guitar, and so much more before I wouldn't be able to do those things any more. If I had known all of this I would have done so much more. <br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Me<br /><br />P.S. I also would have started using anti-wrinkle cream much sooner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2298701075110623658.post-33000609355196361402010-02-08T13:04:13.595-07:002010-02-08T13:04:13.595-07:00I don't know very many people who LOVE their b...I don't know very many people who LOVE their body.
