Unexpected Wow!
I had some extra time after a workshop yesterday, so I decided to go downtown and get a coffee drink and read for a while. Purchased my $4 drink (which I ended up drinking only about 1/2 cp of it b/c it didn't set well) and went out on the porch to sit. Saw the rocking chairs and automatically thought "I wonder if I can sit in that chair and get up without it catching on my hips and coming up with me." I sat and actually had about 2 inches on either side of my hips. I didn't even touch the sides!!! WOW!!!
Hi Ginny,
Isn't it amazing how we don't percieve ourselves to be smaller, but things like having extra room in seats and chairs tell the 'real story.'
Congratulations and wishing you continued success,

I love that feeling too. I love going places and not dreading the chairs. I esp. like sitting comfortably in a movie theater seat!
