Sizing Theory

Why do we let the size printed on a pair of pants define us?!?!  Wouldn't it be great, if you went into a store picked up a few pair of pants and tried them all on, bought the pair that fit best and left?!?!?!  OMG!!!  This is what heaven will be for me...no more sizes.  It is really just for lazy people anyway.  I mean...really??!  Will a bigger woman pick up a tiny pair of pants and think they'll fit?  NO!  She will pick up a pair of pants that she holds up to her and looks like it could fit.  This could revolutionize the clothing industry!  How many more clothes would they sell?  How much would it help young woman understand what is really important?!?!  NOT YOUR SIZE!  Your Heart!!!  *stepping off my soapbox now*

Since we don't have this option yet...I suggest that you choose your shopping buddy wisely!  The person you shop with can make or break your shopping experience.  As ya'll know, this weekend was a bust for me while trying to find some jeans.  There were tears and a few tantrums involved.  I have to say that today was a completely different story!  I went shopping with my Grace.  She was amazing!!!  I tried on a pair of jeans at the Loft that I had no intention of them fitting I just wanted to see if they would - AND THEY DID!  They didn't only fit me!  THEY FIT ME GREAT!!!!  Grace was ooooing and ahhhhing and said they made my butt look smaller *which is what I want*.  She was so supportive and wonderful!  I had an amazing shopping day yesterday, I got 3 sweaters and a pair of jeans with my "store credit" card from the Loft!  YAY!!!!  Even more important than the clothes?!  I had fun and felt GREAT about myself afterwards!

So note, it doesn't matter what size the person your shopping with is (Grace is TINY), it doesn't matter what you're shopping for, it only matters that the person you shop with understands how completely whacked you are!! LOL!!!!  LOVE YOU GRACE!

Today was an interesting day...AND BUSY

Yogurt parfait was Breakfast #1
 Breakfast #2
 Then comes the hard part of my day...CRAZINESS!  Grace and I left my office at 11:30 (I meant to eat lunch before we left but forgot), we went shopping then right to the other building b/c we were having a final Healthbeat Meeting today.  We made it there in the nick of time.  My Healthbeaters made me a BEAUTIFUL book and signed it...it was SO SWEET.  Also instead of cake to celebrate my departure from TESSCO, they made GREEN MONSTERS!  I wish I'd have taken pictures but as you all know MY CAMERA SUCKS.  It was so wonderful to feel so loved and valued...I will really miss this group of people! 

After the meeting I received a call from my new boss, "We still haven't received the results from your pre-employment drug screen"  WHAT>?!?!?!  HOLY CRAP, I forgot to get my drug screen!  So I hurried up and left here to pee in a cup!  I finished up there around 3pm but I still hadn't eaten anything since Breakfast #2 at 9am.  I was STARVING AND I HAD A HEADACHE!  The left over spaghetti squash needed to be heated up and I had to grab something quick b/c i needed to get back home to get the boys off the bus so I stopped at Panda Express
This is pepper chicken with some white rice...BAD CHOICE!  My belly was upset all night :(  Oh well...

Later I had a bowl of Kashi with some unsweet Almond Milk (this is a new photo app, fun right?!?) 
 Then I spent the rest of tonight cleaning and organizing my closet...YES!  DONE!!!

One more thing before I leave you?!?!  My new nail art!  I did this myself, isn't it gorgeous?!  I got the idea on Pinterest and couldnt' wait to try it!  LOVE!  It is a milky gray base with gold glitter tips...really gorgeous in person!

After an amazing day, I'm pooped!!!  Time for bed
