I need a "wow" fix!
Aloha OFF sisters and brothers.......
OK...I just had a mini wow moment, and realized that I haven't begged for WOW's for a long time now. MY wow moment was looking down and realizing that ALL OF MY BUH-TOCKS fit within my desk chair, and I DON'T hang over the side anymore!! There was a time when I spread over the sides about six inches on each side....uh, huh...pretty gross, huh!
Another wow lately is being able to get up from chairs, toilet, etc.....without using my hands!! Also, I can sit on the floor with my legs crossed and get back up from that position!!
I KNOW you all have wow moments....so please share....big and small. I am always so inspired and proud of each of you when you share your wonderful wows with us. So, please do!
Aloha nui loa,
Maui Karen

My most recent "wow" moment was:
DH and I are going to a fancy schmancy dinner a few weeks ago and I needed a formal dress. I went to a local gown type store and asked the sales clerk to help me find something that didn't make me look as if I think I am 18 years old, but didn't make me look 80 years old either.
She hands me a dress that she says "I just love this dress but I haven't been able to sell because no one has been small enough" ..... yep that's what she said?!?!? It was an XS (Extra Small!!!). I felt embarrassed because I just knew it wouldn't fit - in an effort to be polite, I told her I would try it - AND GUESS WHAT - IT FIT!!!!
Yes, an XS fit me and of course all I can think is - do my hips look huge in this dress? DH says "how huge can they be if they fit into an XS? Today my biggest worry is do my hips look too big in my XS dress - go fig (in the words of Dot - my avatar )

I doubt that will ever happen! My knees aren't the greatest and I have no leg strength for that. I'm already 137, size 8, although I did buy a pair of size 6 jean capris last week. I'm not concerned for going any lower. My biggest wow moment was when one particular gentleman was totally blown away when he saw me and told me how phenomenal I looked. My DH never says a word about how I look so that was very special to me.
