Tried on shorts from last summer
and DH says "What happened to your legs?" I'm like "What?" He says - "Where did they go??" LOL! I thought there was something wrong but he was just noticing that my legs have WAY slimmed down.

I finally came back!
Hi all! I finally made it back. Been a long winter for me! I de-activated my account last September in a blur of confusion and not being able to handle my life.
