Good for you Ree! Closet shopping is fun and fills you with self confidence. But you better wear that sweater soon or you'll undergrow it before you know it!

Thank you Judy!  I'm having a blast going from closet to closet..........I had way too many clothes -- too many sizes LOL  And the joys of taking things in!  What a zing!  I took in a skirt and shell from a 4 piece outfit that was a size 4X -- I measured it after the remake and it's just a bit smaller than a 2X and it fits great.....a little loose, but I don't like things tight.  The jacket and pants that go with are going to be a problem to fix, but I might eventually figure out a way.  Being a self-taught seamstress makes for creative planning LOL

How's the bionic knee???  Hope you're making progress and feeling good now!

Yaaaay, Ree!! Way to go! That is a wonderful and happy story. I was thinking "sweater elves" as I was reading your post and then you wrote about "sweater fairies"! 


Hope you have a wonderful day and rock out with that sweater! And my team (the Lions...sigh) lost, natch.

Thanks Vicki!  Yeah, I was laughing about the sweater, too...........wish I knew where it came from!  Fairies, elves, even the Easter Bunny -- I want names LOL

Yep, Bears lost, too...........but Green Bay managed to win.  Big rivalry between Bears and Packers -- but I like Aaron Rodgers -- just don't tell on me LOL

Thank you Nancy -- it's reassuring when something distinctly shows up that is unexpected that makes staying on plan easier.  WE are doing what we need to do to get our lives back.............so many of us working together to help and support each other lets all of us succeed!

I want to know where this sweater came from though -- it's driving me NUTZZZZ  LOL
