Saturday Java!

Good Morning everyone!
It looks like it is going to be a gorgeous Saturday as I am watching the sunrise. Enjoy today as it will be downhill from here, weatherwise. My daffodils are starting to bud. I figure they will probably be covered with snow by Tuesday. I fell badly for the spring breakers that decided to stay home this year.
What's brewing this morning? Will be starting my decaf real soon. 
QOTD: Today is "open mike" day.  Today will be the Michigan version of rants and raves.....
My rant-women's clothes. I still have quite a "jelly belly" or panni since WLS. I can only wear pants that are "boy cut" or have an elastic waist. I try to avoid elastic at all costs. But, the boy cut makes me feel like my belly button will hang out (which won't be pretty). So, if I try to get a waist fit, they bag all over the hips and legs... I wish they would have more waist size selection like men's pants. How many elastic waist men's pants do you see? None...
Rave-Go Spartys at the Final Four. That's hard for me to say, being a Wolverine....
Have a good one

Morning Deb and All

Looks like a nice day, so I will be ouside today. 

QOTD - I totally agree, I wish there was more of a standardized sizing also.  One store, runs so small, that I need their 3x - I refuse to go back to that size, so I don't shop there.  I started in a 5x and am down to XL and not going back.  Sorry for them.

Not a basketball fan, but I do hope they win, my boss has tickets for tonight and Monday, so Tuesday would be a great day for us if they won.

Good morning, MI!!  I noticed buds on some of the trees the other day as I was outside gathering rocks from our rock pile for school.  I think that was the longest I've been outside since it got cold last fall.  I'm such A WIMP in the cold!!!  I really need to move south someday!  Or maybe to AZ where my sis lives. Although, today's sunshine gives me hope that WINTER WILL EVENTUALLY GO AWAY (for a little while, at least).

Anyway, just finished some coffee.  Getting ready to go shower and then heading to U of M hosp. for our "labor and delivery" tour. 

Rants - Ummm...I'm in a very optimistic, happy mood today so I really have nothing to RANT about.  I know....give me a break, right?  

Raves - Lately, my rave has been s/f vanilla latte's from McD's.  I have limited myself to 2 or 3 a week.  LOL! 

Enjoy the day!  Tina

Good Morning!
I love waking up to the Michigan sunshine.  Getting ready to go for a walk than a little shopping before I head out to work.

QOTD;  Rant . . .  can't seem to find anything this morning . . but I will agree with you on the elastic pants . . I found a pair at Fashion Bug a few weeks ago and my sisters couldn't even tell they were elastic waist - so I went back and got 2 more pairs . . . no tummy tuck for me until the late summer!
Rave - Go Green . . . I'm not a big State fan . . (OK, so I'm a band wagon fan) but if the U of M couldn't do it I'm hoping they can!
Enjoy the beautiful day while we have it.

RAVE:  I will always be a Fashion Bug customer.  No matter what size I am.  They now do your measurements and fit you in their custom size pants.  I like it.  They even have sized that are more generous in the hips and ass.  Yep, thats me!

Hey Michiganders,

I"m having a great sunny Saturday!  Hope your all enjoying your day.

Q:  I gues my only rant is that my pants are always big in the thighs.  My co-workers are always telling me that my pants are toooooo big, but there not at the waist, just in the thighs and a bit in the butt, this baby definately does not have back
