I am happy and excited to keep moving forward.
Meanwhile, this past weekend I purposely washed and dried my Farmer Joe Jeans on HOT. And they're STILL too big. Add to it, that the swelling in my hands is also down, and yesterday at work, my medium gloves kept bunching.
These are fun problems to have.
But best of all, is that I'm maintaining energy for house projects. And even though I didn't finish the office haul-out last Saturday as planned, I still went ahead and bought my equinox gifts because I am a grown up and I can do that.
And dig this, the new plates are 22cm (almost 9in). If I'd bought these last year, I would have also purchased the platters at 30cm (almost 12 in). Where now, there's no need for honkin' big plates. And that is very cool step forward.
Check them out. I love them. They make me so happy.

Let's hear it for shrinkage!
ReplyDeleteAnd you're right. You're a grown woman. You can splurge and spend money whenever you want.
My wife does...
I had planned to wait but if I did, I would have missed the sale - and we can't have that :-)
DeleteGo girl!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks :-)
DeleteWhooot! Glad to hear all your hard work is paying off.
ReplyDeleteThe good news is, it doesn't feel anything like hard work, at all.
DeleteVery nice. I haven't bought plates in YEARS. Heck, I still use the plates I bought before I got married. Guess that makes them around 35 years old! I love Correlle. Or at least what Correlle USED to sell.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the weight loss. I'm very happy for you. I went up a pound. Damn hormones! :)
I have some nice pieces from before I got married as well. Fun stuff.
DeleteDarn hormones, you'll get those buggers next week. Thanks for stopping by.
Here's to solid week ahead.
Lovely gifts but I'm salivating over the hot chocolate.
ReplyDeleteIt was nummy.
DeleteOoh, very nice stuff. And I agree. we're adults now. We can have cake for breakfast :)
ReplyDeleteCake for breakfast, it is.

ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteYou go, girl! Sounds like you're doing great. Your hard work is rewarding you. I've been exercising steadily for this whole month and I have to say that I feel terrific. I should buy myself something, or pick up something fun for the house. I'm a grown woman, too, so I can do that! :)
ReplyDeleteI know and even better, it doesn't feel like hard work at all. Just a regular way of life again, and I love that the most.
DeleteGlad you are feeling terrific. That's wonderful news. Thanks for sharing it.
What fun thing are you thinking of getting?
Some nice picture frames to put my photography in would be great :)
DeleteThat is a good idea.
DeleteWhite dishes are very elegant.
ReplyDeleteI just love them. Soon as I saw them.
DeleteWow! You're doing great. Keep it up...or down ;D
ReplyDeleteThank you and Happy Fall :-)
DeleteFantastic news. So happy for you. :)
ReplyDeleteLove those dishes! Really love the look of them.
Me too, I like how they aren't each one perfect but a little wiggle to them.
DeleteCongratulations to you, my dear! I'm so happy to hear about less pain. =)
ReplyDeleteI love that Halloween decoration. Very Poe!!!
They sell them at Yankee Candle - wax burners. Very cool. Can't wait for it to get here.
DeleteThat scary stories statue is so cool!
ReplyDeleteIt really is. Thanks.
DeleteGlad to hear you're still doing well. I think it's a good idea for you to have stopped on the clear out before it pushed you to the point to exhaustion.
ReplyDeleteI really like the dishwear. Very clean, crisp and elegant. Have a good week!
Just little bits daily. Been working well for me. I'm about to break for a snack now.
DeleteThanks on the dishes. I sit at the table and use them and they make me so happy.
Just so pretty.
Good that the back pain is lessening.
ReplyDeleteI do like that scary stories sculpture!
It's cool, eh? You can get it at Yankee Candle stores (though ours was out). Or order it online. They've got some neat Halloween goodies.

ReplyDeleteI love them. Just perfect.
