It's all so much effort, especially since new equipment and service people have to be brought to the island, never too easy.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-11103157329072800902012-03-30T08:23:48.334-07:002012-03-30T08:23:48.334-07:00Love your Spanx pun -- ab(d)omination!Love your Spanx pun -- ab(d)omination!materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-10278064230018339152012-03-30T08:20:38.984-07:002012-03-30T08:20:38.984-07:00I share your reflux pain!

We didn't have cable for a few years, but were called by the company and offered a deal we couldn't refuse. We'll see what the renewal comes in at. And we watch movies on Netflix - which also has Mad Men.

If I can't wear a piece with a good bra, no-line panty and if needed, slip, then it't not for me. A saleswoman in a beautiful boutique said she does not wear them b/c they make mature women look even bigger, shifting the loose bits to waist or bust. I agree.Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-90761285996293934772012-03-29T07:47:24.052-07:002012-03-29T07:47:24.052-07:00Sweet Nana story.

Wearing it can cause problems with acid reflux of which I already have enough issues. I even buy my Not Your Daughter's jeans a size up so they will be more comfortable since they have "tummy tuck technology."Debbi@SheAccessorizesWellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02888489368256761571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-63025222865666102092012-03-29T07:28:28.453-07:002012-03-29T07:28:28.453-07:00From the mouths of babes.
