Dilemma

I got a Lane Bryant catalog the other day. Funny thing is, it managed to magically migrate from the kitchen table (where I left it) to the back of the toilet where I found it this morning. Even more curious is that it was left open to the lingerie page. Hmmm, it wouldn’t be my daughter because she can’t reach the back of the toilet and she wouldn’t have left it intact. Every page would’ve been torn into itsy bitsy shreds. If it wasn’t her and it wasn’t me, then that leaves one culprit…. I’m flattered! When he says he finds me attractive no matter what my weight, I can finally believe him! How cute.

That’s not actually my dilemma. I’m not sure whether or not I should buy a bathing suit right now. We’re going to be going away with my family to the Jersey shore in a couple of months. Should I buy the bathing suit now, while they are on sale and still available or should I take the chance and buy it closer to the time we leave? I can’t tell how to determine what I’ll look like in two months.

I’m leaning on buying one that fits me as I am today. I haven’t had a bathing suit in years. Maybe I’ll start to work on my confidence now and try to enjoy a few days at the beach here. Then I’ll feel comfortable in my skin by the time we go on our vacation and I display myself in all my glory in front of my family.

Well, I know one thing for sure; I can rest easy believing that my husband will find me attractive no matter what.
