Day 432 - Sunday

So I love My Habit, I buy stuff there all the time even though I keep saying that I am going to wait until I lose all the weight before buying new clothes, but...well I know have a full closet full of clothes that fit now.  I just can't help it.  For many people they don't know that my most secret of vices is clothes.  Even when I was poor and couldn't afford anything I would always be able to buy something new.  So even back then I had a closet full of clothes.

But though I love clothes I don't take care of them, so they don't last long with me.  Now especially with dogs, for instance I had a nice skirt set, but as I was twirling around the skirt just happened to end up in some dogs mouth (like magic) and the next thing I know we are playing tug of war with my skirt (and me still in it mind you.)    I lost that one.  RIP beautiful skirt.

So when I started to work after getting my degree I had no professional clothes so TH took me out and bought like eight Pendleton suits for me.  They were gorgeous, and I loved them until I couldn't get into them anymore.  They lasted a year, but I couldn't bear to part with them so I packed them up and hoped someday I would fit into them again.  So at the new goal weight (12 pounds) I do fit into all the suits - So I just can't lose sight of this project - popcorn or not.

I had to remind myself yesterday that there is no tomorrow and I can't start getting back on track tomorrow after eating all that delicious popcorn.  So though there is popcorn left I avert my eyes when I walk by and though the pied piper calls to me I close my ears to his tune.  No No NO I will not eat popcorn, I have Pendletons to wear.

  2. T3 looks great in the Pendleton suits - it was fun buying them with her & brought back many great memories. I'm glad she kept them.

    No no no to popcorn (easy for me to say - barbeque chips are my weakness).

    Tolar the jumping jack dog is warming our hearts & making Taya play more than ever. It's so much fun! Go puppy!
