I can sit with my legs crossed!! LIKE A GIRL!!!... I used to have to sit 'man style' with the ankle propped on the knee to keep the leg from sliding off to the floor.

(Yes - it all sounds funny and could go several places if you have a gutter mind like me - laugh it up - I could care less!! I am SO STOKED!!!)

*** doing my happy dance!!! ***

    I know exactly how you feel....it is a big deal to actually be able to cross your legs. I hurt my hip when I first started because I was always doing it LOL, years of not doing it and age I guess but it is much better now and it feels GREAT!!!

    I can cross my legs ok, but 'daytimedreamer' I will also be chuffed when my bum doesn't fill the width of the bath or the seat on the aeroplane!

    Be careful with that. I've developed a callus on my left calf from sitting too much with my legs crossed. :laugh:

    But yay! What a great NSV!

    good for you! I CAN sit like that, but it's not really comfortable for more than a few minutes. hope that changes.

    Congrats girl! I remember how that felt for me! I had to call my mom and sister in the room just to show them. LOL For those who take these things for granted don't even know! It's a big deal!
