We have a pool volleyball game planned for Saturday at my Dad's house. We have a lot of fun with it & it's pretty darn good exercise! Anyway, since my surgery, my bathing suit is very loose around my shoulders. It still fits good everywhere else (thankfully bathing suits stretch & retract easily). I've looked around for a new suit, but none of the stores still have bathing suits. I've decided it isn't worth the money anyway, because next year I plan to need a new one in many sizes smaller! :laugh0:

So, my fear is while playing volleyball Saturday, my shoulder straps will fall down & I'll flash everyone with my deflated "balloons"! :eek: I about did it the last time I was in the pool, but luckily it was just my kids and dh in the pool.

Just thought I'd share my bathing suit saga. Perhaps you needed a good laugh! Wish me luck that my "balloons" stay covered all day Saturday.

Hey Jenn - that's great news about your bathing suit -- that it's too loose, not that you're flashing everyone. I know it might sound/look a bit tacky, but you might try taking a shoe string or piece of ribbon and tieing your strap together in the back ... or getting those new things they are advertising to pull your bra straps together to wear under various tops ... you know what I"m talking about? It may not make a fashion statment; however, it may very well keep you from showing your deflated (your words, not mine) balloons to all the others in the pool.

Have a great time!

Or just some good ol' fashioned safety pins might do the trick for you too.

Or just be funky and wear a tshirt over your suit..protects you from the sun, which is a good idea anyway!
