G. Has Disappeared

Just dropping by this alien computer to tell my Peeps, "HI".

And, just to let you know that G. is off to never-never land. Actually, he hasn't been heard from since last Monday so according to his previous dating relationships, that constitutes a break-up.

Just as well. The Queen and The Princess did not like him so it was really over before it started.

It's just that Valentine's Day thing. No one wants to be alone on Valentine's Day.

Oh well, live and learn.

I "Naired" my arms today. Waxing is just not in the budget right now, and hairy arms on me make me a little queasy. So far, so good. No horrible rash or anything.

I'll keep you posted in a beauty product information sort of way.

Have a good Monday and I'll check on you later, Peeps!

O My!...A BMBM

For those of you who are new...BMBM is Beachy Mimi's Beauty Musings...we haven't done one in a while. I also use that because it REALLY freaks out Queen B when I say BM. Heh Heh

While this post doesn't exactly have anything to do with beauty, except for the beauty OF it, it has more to do with women's health and well-being.

This is how I got here.

A VERY nice lady from church was talking--(not confidentially)--about her sister who has been married 42 years. During the conversation...I'm not exactly sure how...she mentioned that the sister had never had the BIG O. Wow.

As the BIG O has been absent from my life for a couple of years now, I cannot imagine this poor woman going 42 years without.

SHAME ON HER HUSBAND

I totally believe it is 99.999999999999999999999% the husband's responsibility to be
the leader here. Let's just say...in the driver's seat.

In fact, if we explained to husbands and used a car analogy, maybe they would get it.

I realize that most of you don't have a problem in this area. Wonderful! But there are alot of women who do. I have one acquaintance whose husband only wants relations ONCE A YEAR. They've been married 15 years. Even then there is no O in her alphabet. I think people would be so surprised at what does and does not go on behind closed doors.

Back to the car. Tell the husband that you can have a...manual transmission. According to my gyn, this is the way about 75% of women roll.

However, he (the gyn) says that if you are...in alignment...with proper...torque...your automatic transmission comes in to play. He says very few women experience this.

Believe me, I have faked reaching "high C" (think piano and singing) enough to win an Oscar, Emmy and Tony Award. Probably not the best route to take.

There are some wonderful Christian books on the subject. Beth Moore even led a study with her women's group about this subject, so it's OKAY to talk about it.

The problem is, women read...men usually don't. Underline passages. Hand him the book. You may think it will hurt his feelings, but he would MUCH rather you be happy and he will get over it.

It's healthy, normal and a total gift from God.

One of my friend's parents have 12 children and the husband has NEVER seen his wife unclothed. Okay, that is just not normal. Obviously from another generation. Like my grandparents. I'm sure they never had relations, either. EWWW!

Here's hoping you have a Capital O in YOUR alphabet.

Note to Queen B, I guess there ARE worse letters than BM. Now you will have to include O in that!!

I LOVE IT and a GIVEAWAY

I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT! ILOVEITILOVEITILOVEIT.


It makes Beachy Mimi SO PROUD.

If you haven't read Queen B today, you must. She has FINALLY shown that she inherited my inappropriate subject-matter gene.

I feel weepy!

I'm FREE! No longer can she threaten me with my password since she is guilty, too. Isn't that great how that works out?

I'm doing the Beachy Mimi Happy Dance.

In fact, I think she's earned a "That's Just Beachy Award" for her boldness in discussing bodily functions. You ROCK, B. Come get your award, baby!

In honor of such an IMPORTANT DAY, Beachy Mimi is giving away these four lovelies for your reading pleasure.

Yes, all four of this Terri Blackstock series.

All you have to do is answer one little bitty question THAT MATTERS.

"Do you paint your toe-nails (or as The Princess used to call them "no-tails") all year long?"

This is SERIOUS, Peeps. Beachy Mimi MUST KNOW.

I'll leave the comments open until noon CST on Thursday.

Love you, my Peeps!

BMBM #5

I have an update on a previous post about "THE GIRLS", and their High Beam issues. I found a Spanx bra and it is wonderful. The Beam is hidden and girls have no brafat in the back. Not that I would know about that or anything. It was just advertized. Heh Heh

I'm still searching for the petals and things like nursing pads but I don't have them yet.

This may be a sensitive issue for some of you, so stop reading now!!!

We're talking more about grooming.

Specifically, grooming the tootie.

I know I am older, therefore behind (pun intended) in the ways and means of accomplishing such a task.

In my generation, I don't think such grooming was done. If it was, no one talked about it. We all just left things natural. This did cause a problem during summer swimming season.

As I was getting my eyebrows waxed last week, the Salon had a WHOLE PAGE on different kinds of tootie grooming you could request. Beachy Mimi likes to be on the cutting edge and I was just so unaware. I had a lump in my throat to think I HAD MISSED THIS.

They will completely take everything away...or you can trim or draw a little pattern. I think they do one named after Brazil.

Arms, underarms, legs, backs, chests you name it, they'll groom it.

Think of this as a bikini wax on steroids---permanently.

They do warn as you get older you lose, er...some tooties and if you take too much you will be 90 years old and be.....bald, so to speak. Ewww. So the best advice is to leave a few poobies in the area.

This area of lasering may be one Beachy Mimi looks into because I just gotta know.

Have any of you Peeps gone under the laser? waxer? razor? kitchen scissors?

Please share with us so the rest of us can be up to date and properly groomed. Thank you.

BMBM #2 The GIRLS

Welcome to another powerful post about Beachy Mimi's Beauty Musings (BMBM) where we explore the inconsequential stuff of beauty management.

Today I just have to blog about the girls. You know, THE GIRLS. We all have them. Different size, shapes, upper, lower, l-o-n-g-e-r,.......you know. Most of us have a set. We hope they are close to the same size, but not always.

The ideal placement for the girls in somewhere between your shoulders and belly button.
Perky is usually considered more desirable than sagging, and both are more desirable than a 34 Long......as in pointing straight down. (if you have deep valley cleavage I hate you)

Surgery can correct the long....it is worth it. Sorry Queen B, I'm just sayin......When you take off your shirt and the beams are pointing straight south, well....SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.

However, the post is not about that. I have a question about a very common issue for women.
The size doesn't matter, but we all have beams.

If you are fortunate, your beams stay contained at all times. Others, have a difficult time disguising the girls when they are on HIGH BEAM. Walk in to the freezing cold movie, a mall or a restaurant and schwing!!! HIGH BEAM GIRLS.

What's a Peep to do? I have tried bandaids: just look like a bandaid over a high beam.
I tried pushing in the beams with a round bandaid and I looked like I had two bullseye target practice berms.

Next was round cotton.....rounds and the square cotton....squares. It looked like I had stuck cotton pads in my bra. Very noticiable. Still had high beams.

Tape didn't work. It is either high beams or a jacket. Now I don't know about your location, but in the sweat pit South, a jacket in summer is just not practical. Or comfortable.

Husbands are NO help. They kinda like high beams. It's like a badge of honor for them to strut in front of their guypunks, "See what I caused?"

OH PULEEZE!!!

I've carried a very high purse, a book or magazine and even the arms across the chest. None of those look very natural.

The ABSOLUTE worst is when it happens at church. At least you have your Bible....unless you are chasing 40 children and you need both hands.

TURN UP THE AIR.

Old ladies (whose girls are down in South Central Grandma (or lower) screw up their lips and give you a look that screams, "Hussy".

Well, I can't help it. It's a problem. I have found few bras that adequately disguise the beam
on high.

So, Peeps, how do you deal with this Very Important Issue? Help............
