WOW,WOW,WOW!!!!!!!!
I had a wow today akin to a biblical miracle. I stopped in to the dress barn to return a pair of pants that I bought Friday because the seam was frayed and coming undone. These were the pair of size 16 that I was soooo proud to get into and told everyone on the internet about! LOL!
I went to get a similar pair; sold out of my size. Nothing left but a measly pair of skinny girl 14's. Hah! I last wore a 14 in 6th grade; 1969. So I passed on them and looked around. Strangely, I was drawn back to the 14 because I really liked the pants. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I tried them on.
DRUMROLL..................................THEY FITTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!
SIZE FRIGGIN FOURTEEN!!!!!!!!!! ARGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!! They heard me yelling in the dressing room and came running. I told them that I wore a size 28/30 in January and they all started clapping. I was also on TV on the fourth. Newscasters stopped me in the park after the parade to ask me about patriotism. I said "Why me?" and the guy said "Because you are dressed so patriotic!" Last year, I didn't care enough about my clothes to even wear red, white, or blue. I figured " You're so fat, who cares?"
This year, I wore a red shirt, blue scarf and white pants (what I used to call "whale pants" because I felt like Moby Dick in them). I had a flag colored hat with visor, and flag earrings. What a Holiday!
