It makes her self-conscious - - watch her.
I really don't think I could tell if she was or wasn't by watching her.

I love to see men be courteous and polite with their wives in public (not over the top PDA, but just the sweet stuff ). Some men are just thoughtless cads.

I'm thinking those prints might look pretty up close and personal, but from a distance or in a photo they do look weird.

Perhaps being self-conscious myself makes me aware of when others are.

And we thought preachers lived in a glass house!!!! When our pastor moved here, he said, "Yes, we will be buying a house and it will be glass."

Re: Michele Obama's dress

She may be, I don't know. I have a slight overbite, and it bugs me. My friends nag me all the time about smiling in pictures. (Which is why I posted the Cheshire cat version in my avatar...LOL) I have a habit of sticking my chin out a little to make my teeth meet.

My daughter is getting her bottom braces off tomorrow. Her teeth were sliding to the side if you looked closely.

My jaw was so out of line that my teeth were going sideways and my teeth didn't meet (from top to bottom). They said if I didn't have it corrected that after a few years I couldn't chew properly.

At 30, I wore braces for almost a year, then had jaw surgery to correct the alignment. What an ordeal!

Wow, Renda. That would be an ordeal!!! Hair dye is much less the ordeal. LOL!

On that note, my youngest sister and I were talking about her new boyfriend from New York that I met at the wedding this past Saturday. He is about 10 years older than she is. She said that he demands that she dye her hair, as it's 2/3 grey, as per her. He said he wants a young, pretty girlfriend.

I told her I'd dump his nappy hide! That's just plain Texas country!!
