trade offs!

It is that time of year, sunshine on your face and sand under your feet. What at glorious time of year. Most years I would be in agreement, one little negative, this time of year also means bathing suits.

In the not so distant past I didn’t have any issues with donning a skimpy piece of lycra. Now the sheer though of it brings me to my knees with worry. Back then I only had a small issue, my breast were the size of an overweight 12 year old boys. I could and did live with it. Off to the beach I went.

Things have changed drastically!!! While pregnant something amazing occurred – I finally grew the elusive breasts. I did not want to get excited and used to them, I feared my excitement would soon be depleted (literally and figuratively) . Well my faithful few, I am more than happy to report, they remain! In my life there cannot be a positive without a negative, along with the new additions to my upper torso, I also received an unwanted nasty guest. Girth around my belly!!! (UUUGGGHHH!!!!!! The horror!!) Why is it I can not have my new friends and the physique I did at 20? How sad is it cannot show off my mighty fine appendages without them being overshadowed by me newly formed belly.

Here is my predicament, and where your advice is needed. Do I purchase a bathing suit with a plunging neckline, or one with a granny skirt to cover my belly? Do they manufacture bathing suits with plunging necklines AND granny skirts?? Hmmm, if not, I may just design one.
