Yesterday I said that despite all the shit, I really lead a charmed life. Today was a good example of that. My house sold today and even after paying off my mortgage, two equity lines and the realtors’ commission I ended up walking out of settlement with enough money to make up for two years without a salary.
To celebrate I immediately went out and bought maternity clothes. I had no intention of buying any maternity items until I really, really looked pregnant, but I was down to almost nothing that fit. The beauty of maternity clothes is that while I can hardly squeeze into a regular size S I’ve got room to spare in a maternity XS. And I don’t look all squeezed in and sausagey.

“sausagey”, first I had to think about how that looked, that took a while. Now that I have an idea I can say thay you have never looked “sausagey”.
The positive attitude is good.
I am going to sleep now as the Ambien is kicking in

Tell me about it! I’m normally an 8-10, up to a 12 after the first tri English-muffin binge - but I fit into medium maternity clothes. It’s definitely a nice little self-esteem boost, especially at a time when we need it the most!
