I almost cried in Wal Mart tonight!

I got a 2 tone brown with cream sweater from freecycle and needed a pair of nice brown slacks. Well, I thought that I would look while in Wal Mart and I knew that I had a 8-10 at home of knit pants and that they were to big. Well, I held up a pair of 4-6's and told Bill that they wouldn't work. He looked at me and asked why. I just stared at him and told him that they were to small. He told me he didn't think so and to try them on. Well........

They fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I almost cried right there in the fitting room. I went and showed them to Bill and he told that they looked nice. I just stood there. I am sure I had a funny look on my face because the girl said they looked nice and didn't I like them? I told her I loved them and it was just they were a small and I never fit in a small anything~ever! Of course I bought them. When they wear out I am thinking of framing them and putting them on the living room wall for posterity!!!!!!!!

Just had to share my great news with my OFF family~the ones that would really understand just how I feel.

Brenda !! A 4-6?? I would have cried ,laughted, done the happy dance and probably been hauled away by the white coats, but never letting those tiny pants out of my hand.  I am so excited for you.. but seems to me a new picture must be in order.. Congratulations !!!

Brenda,

That's incredible and I did cry the day I put on a size 12!  So I congratulate you on all your hard work.

Hugs, Laureen
