30 Days of Truth: Day Eleven

Day Eleven:  Something people seem to compliment you the most on.

I was going to say my kids because they would be at the top of the list, but let's make this [more] about ME! Shall we?  I figure one narcissist in my family just isn't enough. hee

And just to be extra, extra shallow - let's pick my best physical attribute.  Well, at least the one people seem to comment on the most.

My legs.  I am pretty tall - 5'8 [or 5'7 1/2 depending on who you ask] - not insanely tall, but the average height for an American female is 5'4 so I am doing a bit better than the average height I would say.  Most of my height is made up in my legs.

My Mom had fabulous legs.  'Til the day she died her legs were shapely and gorgeous - she never had a bit of cellulite [much to other people's chagrin - we could never figure it out - the woman ate anything and everything].  Her legs were gorgeous - so pretty that one time while she was cooking dinner I saw Pooldad staring off towards the stove and I asked him "What are you looking at?"  He replied "Your Mom's legs. They're great!"  I was, like..."Ewww."  And then my Dad hit him. [I am kidding. Sort of.]

So I have to thank my Momma for my nice pair of gams. I am no Betty Grable - but I can pull off shorts and mini skirts if I feel like it without worrying.  I do have to say since I have been on this low sodium diet I am finding it difficult to put the weight back on my legs [and arms and my behind] but I think I can still rock it:

Yes?
Taken last evening - and no I won't be wearing those shoes again. 
Have a great Monday!

Great legs! I could share some of the meat off mine if you'd like!

Like Jeannie said, I would be more than happy to share my girth with you! I have ugly legs. He who loves me once referred to them as "sturdy". With "very gross" veins........ Yours , however, are rockin'!

Fabulous legs! And I was just thinking "I can't remember the last time I even put a pair of nylons on!"

Happy Monday!

I am jealous- I USED to have nice legs back in my 20's but as I got older and put on weight they sadly no longer look as nice.... :(

My husband says I have a Shetland pony leg - short and stocky. It doesn't matter how skinny am I. The Shetland remains. So.. my booty. I have a nice butt.

Your legs look awesome! I don't think that my legs have ever looked that nice. Isn't it great to know that you can still rock it if you want to?
