Hot Topic! LOL

About half way into day, I finally am starting to feel normal! lol. But...both boys are sick so officially half of our household is ill this week. That's right, let's just get it out of our systems before Christmas!

Different topic! The hot topic at both work and home lately have been my clothes, and I'm not the one bringing it up in most cases! At work, my boss tells me that my pants are starting to look like gunny sacks (What the heck are these anyway?) and that I need to throw most of my clothes out and start all over! What? Just because they're like 3 sizes too big? lol. Kind of funny but I'm stuck right now. My "fat" clothes are way too big, and my more tredy clothes are still too small. I'd been trying to wait it out till I'm back in my smaller clothes, but now I'm not so sure. And here's another thing. Clothes are fitting different. Like my body's porportions (not just measurements) are changing. Even the clothes that fit good right now, don't fit the same way they used to...more room in the legs in some places, less room in others, butt looks totally different in jeans now...still haven't made up my mind if I like it or not. I was kind of partial to my old butt, so I think I'll hold my opinion on this till I can have a less objective view. But knowing there are changes is SO cool!
Then at home, the subject of my work clothes comes up again, and I do admit that some of my clothes do need to be thrown out. Yes, they are that old. I have one pair of pants that I still wear to work that I got before my son was born, and he is 12 years old! Now....one would think needing to go clothes shopping would be a blast or treat....I however, do not! First and foremost....there are more important things in our household that need to be addressed financially...second....I'm NOT ready to start trying on clothes in a store! I did try on a few things a few weeks ago, and nearly burst into tears when nothing fit right! Those days apparently are not completely over yet, so no....I really don't want to go clothes shopping till I hit my goal. New delima....just got that part time job, right? Well, I get a 40% discount on clothes, and this Sunday I can get a 50% discount everything. Wait a minute! I got this job to help pay the bills, not create new ones! So, there it is....my mental torture! I know I need some new clothes, in more ways than one...but I'm not physically or emotionally ready for the ordeal, but with such huge discounts so I get some anyway? Ummm. Still thinking.....
