Wow - you and @AndriaD were lookers!

(Still are, just vintage, like me :D )
You don't look vintage at all. You must not have spent much time in the sun like I did. I spent sooooooo much time in the sun horse back riding for hours and hours and it ages you big time. Thankfully, there's good makeup out there. hehehehehe

At 18, I looked downright anorexic -- 5'7", and 105 lbs soaking wet. In '99, when that garden pic was taken, I was 38; think I weighed about 125 -- the gardening I was doing then kept me really slimmed down!!! I just can't get that motivated anymore -- a 55 yr old body tends to hurt a lot more, with heavy exertion. :D Which is why now I usually stay between 145-150. :facepalm:

Dang girl that's skinny!!! I was 5'8 and weight 106 once but I looked like a skeleton with skin stretched over it. Major yuck.

Yeah, and skipping even one meal meant I'd lose 5 lbs! Until I had a kid, I had to eat like it was my JOB! Once I had a kid and nursed him for a couple months, I was a little curvier, and had a bit more boobage... but still not a great deal, till I get over 135 lbs. Which is the weight I consider my ideal -- enough meat on my bones to be girl-shaped, but no excess.

That sounds like me. I used to be a workout fanatic. I mean every morning with weights, then after work running or biking or dancing or karate. I couldn't sit still. Now I have an office job and sit all day. I'll try to find a pic of me when I had muscles. I actually had a six pack, like a dude. :oops:

Just around the eyes, you have those sun squint lines. Other than that the sun didn't really age you. In fact you don't look as old as you are.

Going thru those old pics last night, I turned up another I hadn't seen in a LONG time, which is actually one of the best pics I've ever taken -- it was spring in Michigan, but we had a surprise ice storm -- it reminded me so much of home, I took a pic. Considering what a large portion of the country is enduring right now, I thought it seemed appropriate!

Reign!!!!! Hey! How's it going?

Hi Atch! :)

Feeling bleh fever, chills, body aches, cough, the works. So I am enjoying my crow after posting about not getting the flu shot a few months ago, it hath bitten me squarely upon the rumpus. And Marley hurt her shoulder yesterday playing too vigorously so Ive been up all night just about trying to keep her comfortable which didn't help me but anything for her. Not even feeling well enough to game so I thought I would drop in and see what was up around here.

Oh man that sucks. I know there's a nasty bug going around and thankfully I haven't gotten it.............yet.
Mr. Freeman leaps and jumps all over the place now since I've got him on the right allergy meds. Then the next day he can't hardly walk. Guess they do the same stuff we do. lol!
Hope you guys feel better soon.

Thanks we appreciate it. :)

Luckily for her Dad keeps the vetprofen and tramadol left overs from her other injuries. So she's doing much better and I am looking forward to sleeping more than 4 hours tonight which should help immensely.
