Laundry Day :D

I was getting ready for work today when I realized all my black pants were in the dirty laundry. Normally, this wouldn't have been a big deal as I would find the "cleanest" pair in there, Febreeze it down, and call it a day. Unfortunately, with two cats who believe any addition to the dirty laundry basket is extra cushioning on their bed, there was no way I could have salvaged any of the pants.

So I went digging through my closet to see if I had another pair, or even capris hiding in there somewhere. The only pair I found were a size 10 (now mind you, I normally wear a size 16...recently realized I could wear a 14 when my 16's started falling off my butt when I was walking around). I figured I had no other choice but to try, and low and behold, they shimmied up my thighs, over my rear end, and buttoned in the front without a muffin top. They are tight, but not so unbearably tight that people looking at me will say, "How's you get those britches on?"

I CAN WEAR SIZE 10 PANTS!!! One month from a size 16 down to a size 10 (okay...one pair of size 10 pants doesn't mean they'll all fit, but THIS pair does!!)

    Im sure it was a great feeling! I tried on my old pants last night, they fit but not comfortable enough where I could wear them out of the house. I'll check maybe in another 3 weeks or so.
