Before & Now Pictures

A face to accompany the name and REMARKABLE progress if not perfection to quote an eminent midwest
philosopher.

And she's adorable, GRANDMA.

I've posted three photos showing my progress from 2 Christmases ago, when I weighed more than 230,
till now. The photo quality leaves a lot to be desired, but you'll get the idea. If nothing else,
you'll see my granddaughter at six months and 2-1/2 years.

The "progress not perfection" refers only to me. My granddaughter is already perfect. But of course
that's so obviously true, it didn't need clarification.

One of these days I'll get around to posing against a wall with no interference from lamps and
drapes and chairs and extra arms and legs and Christmas wrapping.

Now I'm just downright embarrassed! I'm also out of current pictures of me, other than a couple more
of the same 4-generation Christmas pose. But if it's my granddaughter you're interested in seeing,
I've got a dozen dozen pictures of her and not enough space to post 'em. I could send you a CD-ROM
though. <G>

When I go to get my hair cut on Saturday I'm planning to bring my camera and see if someone at the
salon will take some pictures of me. Uh oh, I've got only 1 more day to figure out which of my new
size 10 pants to wear!!!
