It all starts several years back when they quit making my favorite Levi jeans (stretch-free). Im not a big woman, but i do have the Old-fashion shape, I actually have hips!! Unlike the young girls today with no hips and a big rump....I only dream of having a big rump....but anyway, Thanks to my mother, as a child she dressed me in the high waisted pants that came up past my belly button, you know.... the 80's pants that measure about 15 inches from the waist to the crotch...i think thats a bit much but its not far off. well now i 'm stuck with this shape......( the long butt and the high waist) and all the fashion jeans are hip huggers......i have a few pair but all i get done is pulling them up...all the time....and everytime i sit down it feels like everything i have has just slid out of my pants. I think i'm being reshaped again wearing these hip hugger pants...I've always had a slim waist....but now when i look in the mirror i see these 2 bulges right above my hips..."what the hell?" its from those damn low rise jeans....ahhh!! what used to be a pretty shape has now turned into something deformed...(well, in my mind it has.) Talk about curvy!!! They don't make pants like they used to. I used to think it was my body changing but now i know...its the jeans. all the young girls today have the low-rise shape, thanks to us mothers, when we put their (new improved) elastic band diaper on them, we folded it down...it didn't reach their chest like ours did when we were kids......thanks mom!!
....BRING BACK THE REAL LEVI'S for goodness sake, button fly! We're not all fat these days....I'm so tired of wearing stretch pants i could puke....sure they fit great when you first put them on....oh but after a few hours you can't keep them on, they are too stretchy!
My wardrobe sucks now days. It used to be ripped up Levis and t-shirts...now its anything that half way fits right. the shirts....don't get me started on the shirts....that's a whole other blog... I'm not young enough to wear todays style, but I'm not old enough to wear the other stuff either....I'm stuck in the middle age department........hmmmm....IDEA!!......thats what they need at the stores....labeled.....THIS ISLE IS FOR MIDDLE AGE ONLY.......AGES 30-45 ONLY.
We were taught, as kids, to pray for things the we want to see, have or what we want to turn out. So many prayers seem as though they go unanswered but God will only grant you what you see yourself worthy of. Imagination is a powerful thing. Everything we see that was built by man started in a mind first, a dream, or a desire. God is our father. If I wanted to give my child something they longed for and they turned their head in shame as though they were not worthy of it, it would break my heart. How would I know they really needed it if they didn’t ask for it or seen themselves worthy of having it? Turn to your father, ask for forgiveness, not just because you have done wrong but ask for forgiveness that you feel the shame inside, the regret, the missed opportunities that you gave up. Ask for forgiveness that you never had faith that God was leading you all long and you ignored the blessings because someone told you that you weren’t worthy. Know your worth and give thanks t...
