Mulva... A Sassy Lady

September 23, 2009 11:17PM
If my body were a car...this time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I have got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish, and my paint job is getting little dull. My headlights are out of focus, and it's especially hard to see things up close. My traction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best weather. My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins. It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed.
But here's the worst of it...
Almost every time I sneeze, cough or laugh, either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfire.
Cash for clunkers - I qualify - Do you?

Depends on what pair of head lights she is talking about there MrC....

Izzy- I'm with you girl....my last baby did me in! 5 months later, my chassis doesnt seem worth salvaging. Forget cash for clunkers, I'm looking into how much I can get from the scrap metal!

Guys don't have kids. They don't get the same wear and tear.

You want a fun body crasher, try having twins smiling smiley Did that at age 25 and the body never really retightened the skin. At least I wear it as a 'badge of honor' rather than feeling the need to 'tummy tuck' or any of that nonsense.

jjage, I think that Mulva ...A Sassy Lady is talking about her eyes because she said that they are out of focus, by the way Mulva isn't me, sometimes I feel like her and after four childrens I am like Flash, I wear the badge of honor, but I never will do any tummy tuck.

The headlights, yes, I think reference the eyes, not a chest area.

So was my 1954 Chevy BelAir. I see them on the road sometimes and regret my Dad sold 'mine' for $50 when I went off to college. I had one of the green & cream ones and it survived both my sister and I learning to drive quite remarkably well.

Ladies: Amans point of view-you guys are a hoot. I realize that having kids, can be a drag on your body, but while you go through a physical thing, men go through a mental thing. We get to see our best plaything, get damaged. Just remember, it's
not the age, but the mileage!

Many, many comments come to mind, Mike Cremeans. I'll let it go at that.
