artistgrl's Journal, 31 May 2008

So we are finally finished with the quiet hour, the funeral and everything. It was really hard, but everything turned out very nice. We stayed Wednesday night at my parents house, and I packed up everything, and my husband said he put it all in the car. We drove out there, went to the quiet hour, and I said, "Ryan, I want to hang up our clothes, so they don't wrinkle." Turns out, he left all of our dress clothes on the bed! So now, it's 8:30 at night, and we have nothing to wear to the funeral the next morning. We rush to the store, and I pick out two dresses (the dressing rooms were already closed for the night, so I got two sizes), and Ryan got a suit.

We went home, and I tried on the dresses. The size 14 fit, but it was WAY too revealing, and I didn't like the quality of the dress. My mom said, I have some of your clothes in the garage from before you moved out. I tried on one of the dresses, and it FIT!!! a size 12!!! I was sooo excited! I got to keep the money I would have spent on those dresses, and I found out I'm almost back to my pre wedding size! That was a little brightness in what was an overall sad day.

Sorry about your loss, but great news about the dress. I think its an even better feeling to get into OLD smaller clothes, rather than new smaller clothes.

I agree with MomofTwoGirls :) And it's nice that something good came out of a time of sadness. If you hadn't been at your mom's and forgotten your dress clothes, you would never have had the opportunity to try on your old dress.

Yes, sorry about your sad day, but I'm so happy for you to have made great progress in fitting into your smaller clothes again! Congratulations and keep up the great progress.

Size 12 is fantastic - I'm glad that there was a spark silver lining for your cloudy day. Sometimes fate works in peculiar ways.
