Rofl, Well you know your over the hill and your body isn't what it used to be when your grandchildren tell you your midriff top is shrunk and somehow too short...and try to tug it down for you. (Even though their mother wears midriff tops and low rise hipster pants with pierced navel and it doesn't even raise their eyebrows) I think they are trying to tell me they don't want to look at what I exposed because it just isn't that pretty anymore LOL!!! What can I say, it was hot and we were at home and I figured WHO CARED what I wore in the privacy of my own home...well I sure found out in a hurry!!! I try not to offend their sensibilities but hot is hot.
