When did it happen? When did I stop taing care of myself? When did the size of my ass not become a priority!??
When did I decide it was OK to wear jeans that had 2-year-old yogurt finger prints to the shopping centre?
When did I decide it was OK to wear my hair in a ponytail and not bother with makeup?
When did the denial about clothing sizes start ... 'Those bastards are making clothes smaller now- it's a retail scam'!!!
When did I stop caring what I look like?
Was it when I got married? When I had a baby? Was it when I thought 'now I have everything'?!
Was it when I put everything before me?
I was the kinda girl who had matching bras and panties! I was the kinda girl who took pride in my style! I was a booking agent at a modelling agency for Pete's sake! OH how Susan Palmer would cringe to see me now!
Oh the best part ... in my single / dating days I would JUDGE women that look exactly like I do now!!! I would snicker at the lack of 'togetherness' and vow that 'I will never be like that when I am a wife and a Mom'. 'Oh no ... those women just don't know how to put their foot down and demand time for themselves ... they don't know how to manage time'!
I would be the perfect Mom / Wife ... cuz I would multi-task ... I would combine Swiffering with pilates, I would document my kid's every moment and word while I exfoliated ... I would have a cookbook in one hand and my husband's penis in the other!
Well what's gonna give??! Something has gotta give ... yadda yadda yadda blah blah blah!
