I must get away from the computer...

And get more active! I ache all over... GRRR! HATE the fibro when
it's like this... But I DO want to get the sewing room tidied so I can
start the next projects, and that will keep me away from thoughts of
food!

I shall think of fabric! I'm expecting some in the post real soon...
The low calorie, high fibre diet! This fabric will be for my new
SMALLER summer clothes!

Also looking forward to a lovely bunch of Vogue patterns, ordered with
half price coupons!

Oh, and I put on a T-shirt an skirt yesterday... The skirt is fine -
broomstick style with elastic waist, but the size 18 T-shirt is hanging
off me! I only bought it last year, I'm sure! Looks like I need a new
set of T's. Oooh! An NSV I wasn't expecting!

You know, I shall be quite sad when I no longer fit into Evan's* T's and
stuff: they are a reasonable price and very good quality, stay looking
smart for years, and I dunno how I can afford to replace a dozen T's all
at once! I don't make T's: boring, and cheaper to buy.

I know what you're going through Kate, I have FMS too. I also have severe
arthritis and a ruptured lumbar disk that they wouldn't do anything about,
that's what I meant by enough medical problems in my other post. I'm
diabetic too.

I so wish I could join the exercise challenges, but it's just beyond me.
I think I'm doing well for someone with just activities of daily activity
and a small amount of walking to have lost so well.

All together - Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, can't fit in the LARGE T-shirts! (G)

Well, that is one somewhat costly consequence of losing weight but
worth it.

Congrats

You're doing very well, with all those other challenges!

I cleared the sewing room floor and hooverd madly this afternoon...
Them walked the mile up to school to collect James, and walked back, in
bright cold sunshine with spring blossom all about. Lovely! Blew the
cobwebs away and i feel a bit less stiff and grumpy! AND the sewing
room looks better! Soon I'll be in there quilting again, then i have
some trousers to sew, and a few things to make for 20th april for
customer fittings... And my own new stuff! Should be enough to keep me
out of trouble for a while!

Kate,
I hope you feel better.

Suggestion for the T's-have your son wash them in hot then run them through
the dryer. They may not have colors that are quite fresh enough, but if he
does it a few times they might be the right size ;-)

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!

Ooer! I can just imagine a 9 YO boy in a Hot Pink T with pretty flowers
and beads all over it! Maybe 30 years ago, but not today! h'mm...
Nah, these T's have all been washed and tumbled quite a lot, and being
poly/cotton knit, have not pilled, shrunk, faded, or even needed ironing
in 2-3 years, so I don't think they'll change now!

James HAD purloined his dad's Bisley T (DH shot small bore for Durham
University many years ago), and likes his shirts baggy, but these would
fit like tents!

I shall get organized and take a pile in to my WW meeting: there are
bound to be some girls who are bigger than me, and would like a few free
garments to tide them over as they go down in size. Anything not wanted
can go to the charity shop.

I must go tidy the living room and hoover the floor: new bridal customer
coming at 1 pm!

That's a great idea! Taking them to a meeting and see who wants them on
their way down...
