Great style for hiding batwings and looking cute!

I have a nephew on the spectrum so I know a little of the struggle you have with your daughter. I think it is great that you are putting your family above your wants right now, and I admire you for that. Just remember its ok to take some time for yourself too!

Sounds like you have some pretty good support from your friend at work, but keep coming here to. It has helped me a lot and I haven't even had surgery yet.

Lillith me too. i dont spend on myself, my kids come first. I dont know where you live but Catholic Charities or St Vincent DePaul or Goodwill can help you out with you and the kids stuff. You just gotta be proactive and look for handouts and don't be too embarrassed to accept help, if not for yourself, for your kids. It took me a long time to do that but now I'm in a better place. Still broke but not wanting for as many things.

Hi LillithsDemons, if Walmart is too expensive you could try second hand and outlet stores.

I tried a dress like that on and it looked so weird on me! But I'm happy to let my arms flap in the breeze. :D

These shirts make me look so strange too. It's like my arms are disconnected or something. Plus, I could not for the life of me seem to get into it, and then I felt like my sleeves were falling off.

Yes, they are not all created equal. i have bought three and two of them are fine , but the other is very wierd and not flattering on me at all!

ERIN---IMHO, the style is too "old" for you (that is a compliment!)

Yeah, looks so gorgeous and it's fit you well. lol

Cute!!! Dress Barn carries this type style. They are in CT and online.
