Its a sundress kinda warm day around here 
Wow, Michelle, that dress is sooo perfect on you, California girl!
I rarely wear pants lately, but I dusted off one of my favorite ever pants, my black 501 Levi's last Friday. The second pic is with my favorite top, but it's impossible for you to see it. No matter what I do with my crappy phone camera I can't get a clear photo, so I'm going to have to get my neighbor to take a few with her Canon. Then you'll be able to see this California girl has more wrinkles than a California raisin and bigger faults than the San Andreas, lol! I know these posts are just the opposite of a competition, but once in awhile I can't help but feel a little down when I see how pretty all you girls are, then I look in the mirror. One minute I feel quite pretty for my age, then an hour later I'll catch a glimpse of myself hobbling at the store, focusing on my posture from my broken back and feel like crawling into a hole. I never get clocked, but at least a few times a week somebody, man or woman, young or old, says, "Excuse me, ma'am, but you look like you're in so much pain. Can I help you to your car?" or something else very sweet but embarrassing. I'm going to have to do something soon because of the pain and how bad it looks if I don't remember to stand perfectly erect, but if I stand that way for more than a few minutes the pain is unbearable. Other than that, though, I really am happy and at peace. I can't believe it sometimes, I've been the real me for more than 20 months now, my only male clothes left at all are my three pairs of 501's. I also have 22 months today without a drop of alcohol. Hugs, Mira
P.S. Please forgive me if I start sounding morose or down. It's just my back, hip or knee pain, that's all.
