Cleaned my closet over the weekend to get ready for Fall. Well, now I either have to go shopping--(which I hate unless it's for fishing tackle) or I have to remain in my PJs for the winter. None, and I do mean none, of my winter clothes fit to where I would wear them outside of the house. I guess this is a NSV, but it's upsetting. I really have some beautiful Fall and Winter clothes from when I used "high end" entertain with John and his diamond jewelers' circle. How times are "achanging". Moving on isn't always all smiles and sunshine, I guess, but moving on is what I am determined to do.

chinS, my friend---I'm trying to keep my "chins" up. My fishing waders still fit, so I can always go to Walmart...!
Most of the time, I can---other times--not so much. This was just a result of a mixed bag---happy over going down 8 dress sizes and not being able to let go of "the memories". I have one gown that John had real diamonds and pearls sewn onto the neckline and sleeves. THAT gown is going nowhere. I will wear it one last time----when the time is right. -
I completely understand the memories. I still wear almost daily (including today) shirts from Camp Makualla (Boy Scout camp). I worked there from 97-01 as the Archery Director then I was the Shooting Sports Director. I have shirts from Hawaii in 05 and 15. In 03 I bought a nice burgundy shirt as an "interview shirt" that turned into my "date shirt", I met Jeanna in that shirt and got my job of the last 12 years in that shirt. These are memories that I can still touch so I understand completely where you are coming from.
