Sunny41 are you going to do BBM 7.0? I am but I can't start yet. Hoping I can start February 1. Yes! I just squeezed into a pair of 12 pants. I started at squeezing into 18. I told myself I am going to get them for a 7.0 goal.

Banana Republic or Madewell for work/nicer clothes purposes. If you're looking for something less expensive and for every day hanging around (or if you think you're in between sizes), Old Navy (or even kohls) might fit the bill.

Sunny41 I've had a lot of luck with Old Navy and JCrew lately.

Sunny41 I’d give a Talbots a try if one is convenient. You’ll probably find some things are a bit more ‘mature’ but I do think they have some cute things. At 33 I’m probably younger than their target audience but I’ve bought some stuff there. They always have pretty, flattering colors and they offer a wide variety of cuts/fits in bottoms. I have bought a lot from JCrew lately—I feel like they’re getting back to ‘old JCrew’, which makes me happy—and I’m warming back up to Banana Republic after being unimpressed for a few seasons.

I’m happy to report that we are finally moving out of the deep freeze temps, it’s no Cuba here but safe to say that the North Pole is colder than me today. Phew. That was a long week.

Yup, and you need to stick around to coach us through the teen years. “When a boy turns 13, put him in a barrel and feed him through a knot hole. When he turns 16, plug up the hole.” ~ Mark Twain One of my dad's favorite quotes. Did I ever tell you that all we listened to on long drives during Summer vacation was a books on tape version of "Innocents Abroad?" I'm sure my sister and I quote MT far too often.

cagoldi how you doing? And the boys? Woof. Atticus is much improved. I'm pretty sure I'm having an allergic reaction to my Z PAC so I'm back at urgent care. Waiting. Pete and X are not great but neither of them need to go to the doctor. Yet. Thanks for checking on us.

Yep.
Allergic to my Z Pack. Now I'm on Augmentin.
As soon as this excruciating headache goes away I think I'll be alright.

I made a grocery list for DH to pick up. He read through it and got mad at me and said “you’re not doing that whole healthy shit again are you?” Like WTF?! He’s so supportive of me 🙄

cagoldi, I'm sorry to hear you're all still sick! Worse people to quote than Twain. We saw Downsizing this afternoon. It started well but got weird about 2/3 through. It tried to straddle the rom com/sci fi fence somewhat unsuccessfully.

He’s so supportive of me 🙄 Why would he get upset about that? Because “it’s a waste of money” and “it’s not going to do anything because you’re going to give up right away”. For the record I just added some more fruits and veggies to my list. I didn’t make some sort of crazy expensive list.

There's no good argument for eating fewer fruits and veggies.
CTFD, Mr. Trtl.

All tied up. Our next door neighbor is a UGA fan; she is so excited. I know I should be rooting for them b/c of SEC pride and all, but I always liked OU b/c of Bob Stoops and his Florida days, and I can't stand Uga, so here I am pulling for the Sooners.

Tmi ahead:
Dh just helped me shave down below, because I am well past being able to see that area. I really need to bite the bullet and either go back to Brazilians or do laser hair removal.

Mh is arguing with the 4 year old about ice. He says she has plenty and she says she needs more to color change the LOL little sisters. I told him what does it matter, it's just ice and I didn't know we were rationing it.
.....He gave her more ice.

trtlcrzy he's really trying to kill any motivation you have. First he said no to your Barre class and now to fruits and veggies. Geez. Not cool Mr. Trtl, not cool.
