Goin' South

This morning as I was getting ready, I laid out a nice blue shirt that I bought before I had the ball of fire. It's a cute little shirt with this silver circle at the top of the neck line, set in the cloth.

I put it on, but it just didn't look right. I pulled at it a little. Adjusted the neck. Stretched it out using my bed post for leverage. Nothing.

What the hell?

Then I noticed it, the scourage of child birth and getting older. My breasts have slipped .. a little ... ok ... more like four inches! Once upon a time, that little silver circle sat right at the top of my cleavage. WTF!!

I know who I am. I will never be Daryl Hannah in Kill Bill Vol. II when she gets out of that firebird wearing those pencil-thin black pants with her legs that stretch up to her neck and that perfect ass carrying a case of cash and a black mamba. I am short, with curly hair and some junk in my trunk. But I have always had great breasts. At least until now.

In my despair I did what all women in crisis do, I went to the mall. Specifically I needed a new sexy, lacy bra from Victoria's Secret to make me feel better. I had a gift card, and the ball of fire.

We didn't make it very far. This boy will become a man who loves breasts. He fondled every bra in that place, and a few pairs of panties that were not more than strips of elastic.

Finally I said, "Son, you are not very fun to shop with!"

He replied, "I know. You're not very fun either." He had me there.

No bra. Damn! The sag continues...

Oh, the joy of motherhood!! I remember when my large mams used to salute everyone they encountered and were perky enough to cover up the bitchy attitude I sometimes had. Nowadays, the size is the same, but they are not-so-perky anymore. Sometimes I look at them in the mirror and give them a little lift, just to make them happy again. I keep asking for a boob lift every year for christmas, but to no avail, I am still asking.

I feel your pain sis - Normally, on the left I have a full C cup - but on the right - an A cup. Now that I am pregnant my full C is now a full D and growing all the time. The tiny righty... still an A.
UGH!
