H...Well, OK, I wasn't gonna mention this, but. . .<br /><br />Having seen a woman or two take her bra off, and put it on, by reaching around behind her back in some kind of contortionsist maneuver, I was stunned the first time I saw Molly just fasten the hooks around her waist, then spin her bra around her waist, and slide it up into position, before putting her arms thru the straps. Likewise, taking it off, she'll just slip her arms out, then slide it down to her waist, spin it 180-deg so the clasp is on her belly-button, and it's simple. Sorta made me wonder why other women did it 'the hard way'. . .Desmond Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07829959101276150279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-9768982971527027622009-04-16T09:15:00.000-04:002009-04-16T09:15:00.000-04:00I offer up a gentle ^5!I offer up a gentle ^5!Cheesyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02099545260198846488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-78727400670888921022009-04-16T07:33:00.000-04:002009-04-16T07:33:00.000-04:00jeni, i can totally empathize. and i presume it wa...jeni, i can totally empathize. and i presume it was your dominant hand?...so much more frustrating.limehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259558876349307173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-27029673186120280602009-04-16T00:55:00.000-04:002009-04-16T00:55:00.000-04:00Boy, can I ever relate to your issues with your ar...Boy, can I ever relate to your issues with your arm injury! Back in 1999, on the Fourth of July, I fell, as I was walking into the freezer at the restaurant where I was working and I broke my right wrist. It almost got me fired because I was not allowed nor able to drive while the arm was in the cast but aside from that, when they took the cast off, my right hand was virtually frozen in the form of a claw from the position in the cast. I still was having a lot of pain in the wrist and also even in the upper arm, which got pulled somehow out of whack due to the cast. It took six months of therapy, three times a week, to get things fairly well back to normal. I still can't form a complete fist with my right hand, can't handle change with it as it slips right through. But the therapist I had said the same thing to me later about her initial reaction to the state of my hand and arm! Took a whole hell of a lot of therapy and bending, stretching, pulling on those fingers to straighten them out as much as possible and to be able to bend them again! A lot of pain killers along the way too!<br />But by gosh, by golly, aren't physical therapists just about the best thing since sliced bread too!???Jenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425701332785470116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-69742903716235015012009-04-15T22:09:00.000-04:002009-04-15T22:09:00.000-04:00lulda, i couldn't have picked a better set of peop...lulda, i couldn't have picked a better set of people to help me recover if i tried<br /><br />breazy, good to see you. yep, the prognosis was not terribly good.<br /><br />seamus, LOL, my new theme song. as for the front hook models...shall we say the engineering provides insufficient containment...<br /><br />trucker, and the stoned posts too huh? ;)limehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259558876349307173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-81312563092470861152009-04-15T21:19:00.000-04:002009-04-15T21:19:00.000-04:00I remember like yesterday when you first wrote abo...I remember like yesterday when you first wrote about this....truckdriver_seflhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00449591233662723797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-30924807249301216882009-04-15T20:04:00.000-04:002009-04-15T20:04:00.000-04:00Does Janita sing "Zippidy-do-da" yet???
