R.I.P.


Today is the day that I purge my teeny tiny bikinis. As I took them each out of their own ziploc bag and laid them all out I had to reminisce. To a count of either 44 or 45 -I couldn't keep track, I had a few smiles. Once upon a time these were my life, now I barely ever wear a swimsuit, much less a thong. Oh those were the days...
Just in case I put it on again, one of them had a note in it's ziploc bag.

A sea of bikinis!


Kim called as I was doing this...and she said I can't toss this one, and that I was ruining her dream of being able to wear it after she is all done with babies. It's here Kim!
I LOVED this one with all my heart. I thought I was hot stuff with hose flames on my hiney!
This one made it into The Lake Murray News swimsuit edition. Boy-ee did I look tan! I still love that yellow label on the back.
Here is another favorite.


This one has a funny story. The first time I wore it was on a cruise and Billy C. threw me in the pool. I cried because I didn't want it to get wet. Speaking of water, I would say only 20 of these 44 suits ever came in contact with water.
They aren't really gone until Monday, trash day. So as I took them to the trash can in the garage I got a thought...is there something I can do with them? Can I cut them up, make a wreath?...I don't know. If you have any ideas before Monday let me know!
