Clothes??

Well, since having the baby, I truly have no clothes that fit. Everything is too big on me, including my bras (sorry TMI). I'm desperate for the clothing exchange, hopeful that someone will have clothes in my size (8). I am off work for 8 weeks post c-section and sure can't afford to go shopping. I've never had to deal with my clothes being too big, always too tight. It's just as frustrating this way.

Hi Melissa! 

How's little Noah doing?

I know what you mean about clothes.  I'm sure hoping there's some stuff in size 10 at the exchange!  Isn't it cool though to have the opposite problem for a change???

I'm free for the exchange anytime except the weekends of the 30th and May 8th.

PS:  On May 8th, Heartland Crossing is having its annual community yard sale!

You are smaller than me so I can't help you out any more!  But I am proud of you!!!

I dont know what Robin is doing about the exchange.  She mentioned to me that she was checking dates.  If I haven't heard from her after my vacation next week, I will get something rolling.

I am so happy to know you girls are doing well and are seeing awesome results. 

Here's a suggestion.... If anyone knows family members that may have clothes they are wanting to get rid of, ask them to donate them to the exchange.  As we shrink, it becomes more difficult to find smaller sizes at the exchange.  Ususally 12's are about the smallest we see.  If you have friends or family that are in the smaller sizes, you might ask if they have things to share.  I have found they are happy to do so.  And alot of times gives them a reason to shop for something new so they can donate their clothes they have had for a while. 

Love ya all and have a great day tomorrow!

Huge hugz,
Tracy

Melissa, do you know about Freecycle? It is a Yahoo Group and there is a Freecycle for every county in the US. ( or thats the goal). We have a large group of users for Hendricks. Join the free group at www.freecycle.com, then post your need for size 8 clothing. The idea is to pass things on, and kep them out of the landfills. I have given away tons of stuff, and also received things I needed. It can be anything from flowers pots to broken computers. Stipulation: all free. I will be using Freecycle when I need to start purging my bigger sizes. Try it!

Can anyone come to the clothing exchange? or is it for certain groups? Just wondering ...i'm kinda new to all of this.

not sure but how do we send a friend request on this thing?

Hello to all,

I'm trying to start a new group so that we will be able to exchange clothes!  I've been searching for a group but have found none.  If you are interested PLEASE JOIN, what do you have to lose... but maybe some CLOTHES(or gain if you are receiving them)!!!
Again this is a new group so please bare with me.  If you go under community and click groups directory then search CLOTHING EXCHANGE, you should see a group by me!

Thanks soo much for your support,
