HOW I'M CAMPAIGNING FOR A LESS STUFFED CLOSET

Yesterday I bought a darling red sweater-type jacketish thing ($9.00--70% off). It's very cute. Okay, it's still a large but it doesn't have any "X's" before the "L." I'm tired of seeing "X" on my clothes. It also doesn't fit yet. I'm not letting that bother me.

Today I bought a pair of sixe 16 pants ($12.00--70% off but it was as Kohls and they mark their stuff high to begin with so you think you are getting a bargain). Okay, they pants are stretchy. And they don't exactly fit yet. But, I can fasten and zip them, and even buckle the belt, but if I tried to sit down, there might be a problem.

I'm adding them to the small white cardigan I bought some time ago. So, three items of clothing in smaller sizes. If I continue to loose they will be my new wardrobe. Three lone hangers, instead of the millions I have now. I'm campaigning for an empty closet with smaller stuff in a two inch space instead of the 12 items in "grande" size that I have in every two inch space now.

Wish me luck. And more bargains.

I tried on a herringbone jacket--black--that I haven't been able to wear in a while. It too almost fit. But, now I need a new red necklace to go with it. Problems with getting thinner. Three items--four with the herringbone--and no jewelry to wear with it.

Does this sound particularly shallow? I thought so. When it's late at night my river doesn't run deep.

PS I finally lost this week. I'm down fourteen-point-something pounds. My hope for you that if you are not thinner--not everyone wants to loose weight--that you are happier. Giddy with happiness, even.
