    You were beautiful then, and you look amazing now. Sure don't look 40 to me. And that bathing suit is a keeper.

    Thanks! :smile:

    And I think it's funny that people think it's funny that I have the same dresser. That's why I love antiques so much... they're made so much better than new stuff, so there's no need to get replace it.

    My walls have changed color about five times since then, though. Burgundy, then raspberry, then mustard, then butterscotch, now chocolate... All foody colors! :laugh:

    LOL I think it's great that you have taken care of it and kept it. :) We have been using these dressers my husband had when he was a kid but they are NOT in good condition. ;)

    You look so much more happier in your current pic than the 98 one. Congrats on not being much changed since then; other than a healthier look to your face! Keep it up!

    Fantastic! I am so excited to get my muscles back after 15 years of little to no activity other than walking. And you are proof that you can be fit and fabulous at 40 & beyond. You are truly an inspiration!
