That smarts

June10

Today I met two strangers in an air conditoned travel trailer. I handed one of them some paper and proved that I am who I claim to be. Then I went with the other one into a small cold room and took off a good portion of my clothes. This second one took my frozen boobs and placed them on a tray, one at a time. Then she squeezed and pressed them until they were flat and quite squished. And she took a picture. She did this four times. I managed to not pee on myself, but it was touch and go there for a while. I still can’t figure out why she was rubbing my hair, though.

    Way to go. My mom went for 15 years between her first and second “squishes.” It’s so important, if not a happy time. So I think every woman should get a high five for sucking it up and getting it done.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
