OK this is what was going through my head at 4 am while washing my hair, weird I know. Just throwing it out there to see what anyone thinks.

Saggy, baggy wiggly skin
I can now see a dimple in my chin.

I have bat wings, but I can not fly
Wait is that a sparkle in my eye.

The stretch marks are showing,
but my face is glowing

size 24 was what I wore
size 10 is now in my drawers.

People would look around or through me,
Today they all want to be me.

I love my saggy baggy skin,
It is a triumph of where I have been.

Chin up, smile out, This is me happy no doubt!

Thanks for letting a woman with out coffee ramble. :-)

Right on, Sookie, especially about the bat wings. I'm convinced if mine get much bigger I could use them like flying squirrels do.
