I've had my fair share of hair removal too, OUCH! I won't go so far as anything else though. I may not like the sagging results but I guess I'll just live with it all.Jill of All Tradeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075357751662738806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4923368625647031806.post-89543365924004475172012-07-06T12:31:29.176-05:002012-07-06T12:31:29.176-05:00I would not elect to have any unnecessary surgery....I would not elect to have any unnecessary surgery.

I spent the holidays with friends this year...not family and we barbequed and swam...it was great fun. I would have my chin lifted if I had the money and was not a needle phobe myself. I really don't mind how I look but after losing some weight...the chin looks like a turkey. I have a friend who is 10 years older than me who had some work done...and she looks hard to me. Her face is too tight. LOL.

Heck yes I'd have some body work done. This old car needs new seat covers, new paint job and new plugs! Nancygrayce says it's all good and I believe her. Now I just need to find some spare $$$ Our holidays are changing now that the kids are older.

We watched fireworks, made & ate homemade ice cream, grilled brats & shrimp & corn on the cob. If would have been fun to swim, but the neighborhood pool was too crowded.
