 I traveled to Wisconsin to visit my daughter and her family for Christmas.  We got together at a big family gathering, and my niece's husband, who has known me for more than 20 years, didn't recognize me!  Later, in the grocery store I met a past client, who also didn't recognize me until she heard my voice.

To make it even better, I fit into a size 10 Jean today!!  SIZE 10!!  Gosh, I wore a size 7 in 7th grade.  I didn't even think 10 was a possibility.  So, since August I've gone from size 22 to size 10 and tops large or medium.

Oh, another really great one was grabbing a pair of black "one size fits all" tights at K-mart and they fit perfectly.  Any kind of stockings or tights have been horrible up to know.

Finally, a good Christmas.  I did fall off the wagon with Christmas cookies though.

 Congrats on the 10!  Although you know a size 10 now isn't the same 10 that was around when  you were in the 7th grade  :)       I have a size 16 suit that I saved from the mid 80's and it is the same as an 8 or 10 now.  But the manufacturers know we would much rather see a 10 on the label than a 16, right??!

Well, I still have the nightgown from my honeymoon 28 years ago. It will be interesting to see how it fits.
