Most times I now have the courage to tell people that they&#39;ve offended me. Whether they listen is another matter but at least I have stood up for what I believe in - myself!Plus Size Issue! and Aging Outrageously!http://www.blogger.com/profile/12196520784719332552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5870721491951509170.post-16928206181734259622010-07-15T00:37:43.732-07:002010-07-15T00:37:43.732-07:00Seriously? I can not believe you get this too Rosemary. Surely there must be some respect out there? I am always flabbergasted when others, but most especially strangers take in on themselves to give commentary on things that are none of their business.<br />You reacted real well, I need to learn to do it that way.<br />Please tell me did her comments hurt you at all? I still get hurt, not that I am out much nowadays though.Janhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01728584891511905889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5870721491951509170.post-54063620749149640242010-07-15T00:29:51.359-07:002010-07-15T00:29:51.359-07:00Is this good enough? Well not really. This is what happens everwhere. However and this is said with some reservations I can understand to a degree because how often would they actually get to dress someone that is a size 30?<br />Although in saying that, if I was to own a dress shop for the plus sizes I would without a doubt cater for the fuller figure and really advertise my business as catering for this demographic. I would even make it a one stop shop for their weddings supplies.<br />This way it would make it more profitable to have such stock on hand. Maybe I am talking a nonsense, never owned a shop.Janhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01728584891511905889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5870721491951509170.post-33372937065755443392010-05-08T00:52:30.803-07:002010-05-08T00:52:30.803-07:00Okay I LOVE this blog and post; just discovered. Awesome. I&#39;m size 10 myself, studied fashion and I&#39;m STILL learning what my personal style is. I think it comes with discovering who you are as well.

Instead of cake and candles, I was treated to a chef-made Toblerone Cheesecake with a personal birthday message on top, delightful and sinfully luscious! Currently I&#39;m writing a Harlequin Superromance, my return to the romance world after completing two Australian books. I wish joy to all who share my special day, I hope yours was wonderful too. Loving your blog, Rosemary, you&#39;re an inspiration.

Love your colours. If you find house moving exciting, perhaps you have a bit of gypsy in you like I do. I love to move and decorate and start fresh. Enjoy!

I moved on January 30th (my 63rd birthday) to what I jokingly call &#39;my final resting place&#39; because my new home is in a Salvation Army Retirement Village where I can stay for the rest of my life.<br /><br />If you rent privately, the problem of landlords asking you to move (for genuine reasons) becomes quite worrying as you become older and perhaps have health problems. So I decided to move now whilst I am still in spring chicken mode.<br /><br />It IS exciting sorting out and giving away and I am now down to the bare minimum for my 2-bedroomed cottage.Zola the Gorgonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07569877587588044249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5870721491951509170.post-74399980914962944562009-12-14T23:32:23.019-08:002009-12-14T23:32:23.019-08:00Oh wow what a bargain!!

I have always had a large bust and by the age of 20 it was already sagging. Not only that but because of PCOS I have quite a bit of hair on my breasts. Now I am 29 and I am noticing the "curse of gravity" more and more. This story touched a cord. With everything that could go wrong, is it really worth obsessing about my breasts?Burning Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00543067894992457185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5870721491951509170.post-2544313284058098402009-03-30T20:31:00.000-07:002009-03-30T20:31:00.000-07:00Actually, that is absolutely gorgeous.
