Beauty is just a perception

.
.
I roll over and inch my way deeper into the crevices of my quilt. The smooth silky cover touching the warmth of my skin. It's Saturday morning, 8am, and not even an earthquake of any Richter scale was going to propel me out of my new bed!

It has been two weeks since my fiasco with the delivery of the new bed. The result was they had to return the King bed and I had to re-order a Queen size instead, because it was simply too big to get through our narrow hallway. The delivery men were not too impressed,of course, after the amount of perspiration they had to go through trying to get it in and then being instructed to take it away.

I wasn't too impressed either from the damage done to my bank balance. Especially when I had my eye on a lovely slicky number in Ann Summers. They had a special offer for the King at the time. My objections to the Shop Manager that I had to pay £100 more for a size that was much smaller was snuffed. I did think of threatening him with my friend is an assassin by profession but thought wiser of it.

"Your June article is good!" Stanley walks in. He places a cup of black coffee beside my bed. He does that every morning without fail!

"Have you ever thought of writing abook ,Sandra babes, about all the mischief you get up to in the evenings!" he continues to ramble on. "I'm sure it will be a best seller!"

There is a muffled noise coming from under the quilt. My left hand makes an appearance stretches to the ceiling and waves bye bye. Stanley walks out and goes into his usual morning routine of playing Tom Jones CD and showering.

"You're my sex bomb...sex bomb... you're my seeeeex bomb..."

My darling Stanley, how we met will frature you, a story for another day!"

For now all you need to know is we have a symbiosis existence. On occasions we share the same bed. I'll let you use your imagination!

I tell myself another 5 minutes and I'll get up.... the voice of Tom Jones drifts into oblivion.

Every summer, most of us focus our efforts on trying to lose pounds so that we can fit and look good in that bikini.

This summer why not ditch the scales and pursue mental leanness as oppose to physical perfection.............
