The Undeniable Sexiness of Thongs

T. G. I. F.

It's the weekend, and the first thing on my to-do list is to shed my conservative side.  No more mundane business wardrobe for me -- it's two days of sexy tees, tight jeans and my favorite thongs.  Hubba, hubba! 

Thongs make me feel sexy, even at the ripe ol' age of 43!  I still like showing a little skin, and I don't think Mr. Paws minds -- pretty sure he like thongs, too -- on me, NOT him.

My collection of thongs can't be rivaled -- the array of styles, the vibrant colors, fun patterns, and some pairs even tout designer labels.  Having a large variety of thongs does tend to make the selection process a little more difficult, though.  There's really an art to choosing the perfect pair for whatever the occasion may be -- Poolside barbecue and you're wearing white linen shorts, or maybe an evening out at a club, and you've painted on your skinniest of jeans . . . so much to consider, right Ladies?

I'm not quite sure what the age cut off is for wearing thongs (My 26-year-old daughter would say I should have been cut off years ago), but until the thong police hunt me down, and strip me of my thong-wearing rights, I'm going to continue buying and wearing them proudly.

In honor of all the fabulous forty somethings out there, I'd like to share a pic of me wearing my favorite pair.  But before you scroll down, please make sure the kids aren't in the room.  I don't need the real police paying me a visit.

Okay, all clear?

 My favorite pair of thongs -- they're silver and shimmery, and I love 'em!

Happy Friday!  

Which pair of thongs will you be wearing this weekend?  

The Strength of A Woman

I read a post recently, wherein the author noted several facts, suggesting women are physically the weaker sex.  The author also touched on the mechanical differences of a woman's and a man's brain, but never once suggested that women are less intelligent -- whew! thank goodness for that.  I didn't disagree completely with her points of view, but to be honest I didn't like reading them.  At five feet tall and a hundred pounds soaking wet, I think I've just about had it with people determining what I can and cannot do.

Since my blog is mostly about gratitude, appreciation for the good in people, and, in general, just a bunch of happy random thoughts, I want to hear what women of all ages CAN DO, physically, emotionally, and intellectually.

I'm a huge fan of women; we are incredible beings.  And I am happy to be one.

Here's a photo capturing a recent "can-do" moment of a woman near and dear to my heart.  Please share a personal "can-do" moment, picture, or story via e-mail, www.lovnmylife1966@yahoo.com (please copy and paste for now -- I need to figure out how to link the e-mail address), or leave a comment -- love to include your experiences, or those of a loved one, family member or friend, in this post.

In Search of Happy Fiction

"12 Paws and Frogs" will be on hiatus for the remainder of the week, as I redirect my energy toward writing a little "Flash Fiction" story for my daughter's blog, L.A. Birdie's Laugh @ Life.  My deadline is bright and early Friday morning, and I have yet to write down one word, probably because the story is supposed to be happy -- no death, destruction, or personal suffering, which happens to be my forte.  So to encourage the flow of happy creativity, I shall force myself to sit leisurely in the garden for a serious session of daydreaming. 

Wish me luck!

From the "gratitude" archives of my life, I'll leave you with one happy thought to get you (okay, mostly me) through the week. . .

One is never too young or too old for a sing-a-long.
