ONEDERLAND!!!!!!!!!
I made it to Onerderland! I know I'll be riding the roller coaster 
as I journey to my goal, but no cotton candy, cinnabons, or deep-fried Snickers for me!! [Actually, I've never had deep-fried Snickers - it sounds gross!]
Right now I'm on top of the ferris wheel.....
...I can look out and really see my ultimate goal! It's a ways off, yet, but I CAN see it!! My next step goal is to reach 175....then on to 145!
I'm always [at this point] able to find pants that fit, but blouses are another matter. I love thrift store shopping, but haven't had good luck there either, although I did find a linen-look, beige summer wgt blazer.Plus, the blouses in the stores are not to my liking and are too expensive.
So-o-o-o I"ve decided to go back to sewing my own blouses. I haven't sewn clothing in several years, but I used to do it all the time. I splurged and bought a dress form and have been working on creating a master pattern specific to my measurements. once that's done, the sewing is easy and I can modify my existing patterns or create my own.
This is a busy weekend for me and I wish I could just sew all weekend, but not to be the case! I'm visiting dear friends in SO CA over Easter. They haven't seen me in almost 4 years, so I want to surprise them and dress terrifically. SO FUN!
Kim, I might be able to call you tonight!
