scars stretch marks and boobs that sag

Okay I'll ask it. I'm still amused about that skinny dipping entry. How does Rusty feel about you skinny dipping? Paula

Paula, My husband (Rusty) loves my body, and loves to see me run around the house naked.

Rusty does not care if everyone in the world sees me naked. I however sometimes have an issue with it.

The people that we hang out with are a  younger then we are. These people do have children.

I do not mind skinny dipping because it is dark, but running around naked with everyone else brings out the worse in me.

I have had children. I a scar from my c section. I must admit that the doc that did my c section did an awesome job and you can't see the scar, but I know it is there. Then there is that fact that I have stretch marks. I have nursed three children. My boobs sag. I am thankful that I was small chested to begin with, I would hate to see how far they would have sagged if they huge.

I look at these young marines and they have perfect bodies. I am so far from that! I will just keep it covered up unless we are skinny dipping. I am so glad that we skinny dip in the middle of the night!

Today  I have to make a few phone calls and that is about all I have to do. I am looking forward to spending some time on the sofa and working on some quilts.

Rusty got offered a job out in 29 palm. They job pays a lot more, but we both had said that we would not move as long as the girls were in high school. if it was just Rusty, Ryan, and I then we would be looking for houses right now.

Nikki's boyfriend has been giving her the cold shoulder since she got back from Mexico. I have a feeling that this relationship is going south quick. I must admit that I never really liked this kid anyway. Rusty said that this boy should be eating the peanuts out her shit. I know Rusty should not hold back.

I actually talked to my mom yesterday. She is going to come out here and visit for a long weekend. Why? She did not visit us for 16 years! I think it is guilt, but then again it might be a ploy to annoy me.

One of our friends, Kevin, just sat around around last weekend watching that new Tim McGraw video. So I mentioned it to another marine. I was told Kevin is having a hard time right now because he is getting ready to get out. While he is getting ready to go home and start a new life, the rest of his friends are getting ready to go back to Iraq. I will have to talk to Kevin this weekend. I have already gone through this with Rusty.

It is a strange bond that these marines form. They always have each other backs and now he won't be there to have someone's back.

I noticed that I have some new readers. I will try to get by and visit your journals today. I could have sworn that yesterday I saw a comment from someone who had a journal called my deployment journal. If someone can send me this link, that would be cool. Heather I am going over to visit you right now, so put the kettle on.

Have a good day.

I listened to the song and watched the video.  You always bring me in closer to the thoughts and feelings of our soldiers in Iraq.  What a great thing to do.  Doc would love your skinny dipping parties, but I confess I would find it impossible to disrobe in front of others, maybe too fat, too modest, too, inhibited.  I also thought I deaveloped a very heightened sense of beng endangered by people's loss of their restraints, probably from being molested in childhood.  If anybody did anything the least bit bold around me I would be alarmed and take off. We have discussed this a number of times, Doc and I.  HIs third wife took him to a nudist colony.  But Doc has always had a good build, so it is possible with a few drinks he was never averse to calling attention to it. Interesting discussion about how people might feel about this.   Gerry

I view my body as having seen better days. Then I consider how it looks on an average for my age and I get to give myself kudo's. My thinking is we had our chance of being young and attractive. Leave it to the younger generation now. I'm more satisfied and comfortable in my skin now than I ever was then. I'm so glad you talk to these young Marines. They need someone to help them cross the bridges they tread. (Hugs) Indigo

I'm not that open. My body is scary enough for just me.
Take care, Chrissie
