AMEN

CLASS REUNION OF A 55+ LADY
I had prepared for it like any intelligent woman would. I went on a starvation diet the day before, knowing that all the extra weight would just melt off in 24 hours, leaving me with my sleek, trim, high-school-girl body. The last many years of careful cellulite collection would just be gone with a snap of a finger. I knew if I didn't eat a morsel on Friday, that I could probably fit into my senior formal on Saturday.
Trotting up to the attic, I pulled the gown out of the garment bag, carried it lovingly downstairs, ran my hand over the fabric, and hung it on the door. I stripped naked, looked in the mirror, sighed, and thought, "Well, okay, maybe if I shift it all to the back...." bodies never have pockets where you need them.
Bravely, I took the gown off the hanger, unzipped the shimmering dress and stepped gingerly into it. I struggled, twisted, turned, and pulled and I got the formal al the way up to my knees.... before the zipper gave out.
I was disappointed. I wanted to wear that dress with those silver platform sandals again and dance the night away.
Okay, one setback was not going to spoil my mood for this affair.
No way!
Rolling the dress into a ball and tossing it into the corner, I turned to Plan B. The black velvet caftan.
I gathered up all the goodies that I had purchased at the drug store; the scented shower gel; the bodybuilding, and highlighting shampoo & conditioner, and the split-end killer and shine enhancer.
Soon my hair would look like that girls in the Pantene ads. Then the makeup - the under eye "ain't no lines here" firming cr?me, the all-day face-lifting gravity-fighting moisturizer with wrinkle filler spackle; and the all day "kiss me till my lips bleed and see if this gloss will come off" lipstick, the bronzing face powder for that special glow.....
But first, the roll-on facial hair remover. I could feel the wrinkles shuddering in fear.
OK - time to get ready... I jumped into the steaming shower, soaped, lathered, rinsed, shaved, tweezed, buffed, scrubbed, and scoured my body to a tingling pink. I plastered my freshly scrubbed face with the anti-wrinkle, gravity fighting, and "your face will look like a baby's butt" face cream. I set my hair on hot rollers. I felt wonderful.Ready to take on the world. Or in this instance, my underwear.
With the towel firmly wrapped around my glistening body, I pulled out the black lace, tummy-tucking, cellulite-pushing, ham hock rounding girdle, and the matching "lifting those bosoms like they're filled with helium" bra. I greased my body with the scented body lotion and began the plunge. I pulled, stretched, tugged, hiked, folded, tucked, twisted, shimmied, hopped, pushed, wiggled, snapped, shook, caterpillar crawled and kicked.
Sweat poured off my forehead, but I was done. And it didn't look bad.
So I rested.
A well deserved rest, too. The girdle was on my body. Bounce a quarter off my behind? It was tighter than a trampoline. Can you say, "Rubber baby buggy bumper butt?" Okay, so I had to take baby steps, and walk sideways, and I couldn't move from my butt cheeks to my knees. But I was firm!! Oh no... had to go the bathroom. And there wasn't a snap crotch. From now on, undies gotta have a snap crotch. I was ready to rip it open and re-stitch the crotch with Velcro, but the pain factor from pastexperiments was still fresh in my mind. I quickly sidestepped to the bathroom. An hour later, I had answered nature's call and repeated the struggle into the girdle.
I was ready for the bra. I remembered what the saleslady said to do. I could see her glossed lips mouthing, "Do not fasten the bra in the front and twist it around. Put the bra on the way it should be worn - straps over the shoulders. Then bend over and gently place both breasts inside the cups." Easy if you have four hands. But, with confidence, I put my arms into the holsters, bent over and pulled the bra down.... but the boobs weren't cooperating. I'd no sooner tuck one in a cup, and while placing the other; the first one would slip out. I needed a strategy.
I bounced up and down a few times, tried to dribble them in with short bunny hops, but that didn't work. So, while bent over, I began rocking gently back and forth on my heel and toes and I set 'em to swinging.
Finally, on the fourth swing, pause, and lift, I captured the gliding glands.
Quickly fastening the back of the bra, I stood up for examination. Back straight, slightly arched, I turned and faced the mirror, turning front, and then sideways. I smiled. Yes, Houston, we have lift up! My breasts were high, firm and there was cleavage! I was happy until I tried to look down. I had a chin rest. And I couldn't see my feet. I still had to put on my pantyhose and shoes. Oh.... why did I buy heels with buckles?
Then I had to pee again.......
FORGET IT! I put on my sweats, fixed myself a drink, ordered a pizza and skipped the reunion.

yea.......no more work

RETIREMENT AT LAST

What a job!

I don't work anymore. I was a hairdresser for many years, then quit to be a mommy. after my divorce in 1980, it was difficult to find a job. every one kept telling me I was too old.

I did get a very good job with M&M Mars for 4 years. Then I applied for a job as a sales rep for A wallpaper company. I did quite well. But mergers happen and after 15 years, they decided I made too much money and terminated me.what a shock that was !! I was selling well in excess of a million $$ in sales every year. But such as it is, I am collecting my social security.
