I had a great response on Friday night.

The moms meetup group I am part of were meeting up to have Margaritas! hehe....and I got there a bit late...and walked up to the table and there were a couple of women I hadn't seen in a few months. One turned around (who I know quite well), and I waved...and she stared at me in ignorance...and she asked the others "who is that??"........and someone said "Tami"...and she goes "OMG!!!! I didn't even recognize her!!!" (I guess it was the cute top and form-fitting jean capris that threw her! LMAO)

And they all were sooo complimentary, kept telling me I looked "fabulous!!" LOL!

And an added compliment...my husband was talking to my brother last night (we are going out to Oregon to visit my family next month)..and he was telling my brother "You won't believe it when you see her....she looks so healthy and athletic!!!" Now..I have never thought of myself as athletic!!! But that made me feel really good!!!
