Strings and Bikinis
There are some woman in this world who just make the rest of us look bad by the very nature of who they are. Bitches! There I am having a nice romantic and relaxing afternoon on the lake with my Protector and we anchored to rest , talk and relax in the sun.
Boom...right in front of us pulls of this really cool fishing boat with like a 90 horsepower motor. At first I thought my husband was intrigued with the motor but then I turned back and realized what that thing was carrying in it… Two gorgeous MILFs in little tiny bikinis fishing with their little boy and little girl. And when I say fishing I mean the real thing. Worms on strings and everything! The worst part was that actually looked like they liked it and they weren't pretending either. When the one with the long dark hair and tiny tush bent over to change her bait- I truly believe she was not just trying to position her butt to look good for my husband (or I). She was actually really concerned she had lost her worm!
So all of this to say I could tell my Protector was very impressed. And oh no it had anything to do with his "subtle" comments of "Oh that is cool, a woman who can drive a boat and likes taking their kids fishing! Or "Wow that is a super nice boat for woman to be driving-how cool is that that they teach their kids to fish!".
It was the silent admiration that got to me most-what he was thinking but not saying aloud.

The worst part was that it bugged me so much...because I secretly admired them too. Less their bikinis (ok ok so that part pissed me off too) but more their ability to do fun "guy" things with their kids and enjoy it. Looked like they had a zest for life. If it were me alone with a friend and my kids on a sunny hot day I would have surely tried to swim and suntan and hope the kids would tolerate it( knowing full well inside my heart that there were other things they would prefer but being to selfish of a mom to give it to them:(
So as I very shyly took off my clothes and stripped down to my normal bikini and dove in to the cold lake ,I knew very well that this was my moment. I think both my husband and the fishing porn stars realized that they may fish but they would not even CONSIDER messing up their hair and jumping in the freezing water.
As I resurfaced from my swim; I took pride and delight in this freedom that I may have some serious work to do in the areas of fish but when it comes to wearing my hair in a wet ponytail and having no makeup and feeling full on confident this way rocking this au naturel look- these woman could not stand a chance next to me.
We went back to Trent (our cottage) and as another fishing boat passed by -this one with some normal old and potbellied men in it-I turned to hubby and said in my most excited voice I could muster «Wonder if he will catch a trout??" .
Got to start somewhere right?
