    That's because he sees you for who you are, and loves every part of that.

    You are more than a bit of skin. So much more.

    Nope......I nearly decked her the day she sent ' Reiki' through the dashboard of my broken down car (I just called the AA out instead).

    Wishful thinking can move mountains apparently. :confused:

    And last time I passed my exams, it was cos she sent Reiki to the situation, not cos I studied hard or anything...:confused:

    Just be thankful that she was thinking of you at that time. There are mothers who would be stoking up the cauldron chanting "Fail you biitch!"

    Was she pleased you passed?

    Lol!

    you're so right Zed.

    And Sammy, LTPCO! Your Mom and mine are obviously sisters. My mom sent my herbal diet pills for my birthday.

    Spud it's for the same reason that women like men with grey hair, crooked noses, bellies, *insert flaw of choice here* - imperfections are sexy. Perfect is bland and dull!

    You know when you make bread, and the dough is soft warm and squishy before you bake it. That reminds him of me apparently :rotfl:

    Wow Snags just noticed you sig - well done honey ! XX

    Thanks :) I am *slightly* pleased with that!! :j

    My RFL target is 36 mins, although I doubt I will do it, because I'm sure the start will be a bit slow, with so many people there.

    But I don't mind really, I think it will be an amazing day, and now I'm not stressing about bumping into Shrek, I'm really looking forward to it!

    I am lucky. Just need to learn to love myself ehh :confused:

    You do indeed. Think less of what's wrong, and more of what is right.

    Do you know what, it really upsets me to hear you all be so down on yourselves.

    Bunny, from the piccies I've seen of you, god I'd die to look like you, you look so confident, so pretty so amazing, you're out there getting the job of your dreams and have a fantastic loving husband and family.

    Ditto the rest of you (but Bunnys words have struck a chord)

    I'm happy, really, really happy with who I am, I don't care that I'm overweight (morbidly obese according to those who know) or that I wobble in places that I shouldn't wobble. I've spent a long time getting to know me, knowing that people like me for me..... barbed comments from others are water off a ducks back.....I'm a lovely person, I've a loving husband, a family that love me silly and friends that I see when it suits me.

    I suppose what I'm trying to say is this....no matter what you feel, how you feel, there's someone out there who'd love to be you....they always say that imitation is the best form of flattery.

    Stop worrying about what everyone else thinks of you and worry about what really matters in life, being happy, being confident and loved by those around you that matter to you.....the rest of them.....well who gives a royal f**k.

    (I'll get off my soap box now):D

    Last night, I called my Mom to ask her her address' for the last 5 years for my security clearance stuff for new job-she told me her post code for her last house and the first half was for her current home and the second half was for our house we lived in 20 years ago, lol

    You need to channel the life-force of the universe to find the best fruit. Otherwise you could choose some squishy stuff...
