Dieting: Nothing to Wear?
If it doesn't fit it shouldn't be in your closet.If you're like most people, your closet space is limited.
Bring to the forefront items you can wear so they're easy to retrieve. You'll be able to determine by sight what you can wear; other things you'll need to try on. Start creating piles of slacks or jeans, shirts and dresses, etc. If you have several sizes of clothing; sort according to size.
Store or Purge What Doesn't FitOnly items you wear on a weekly basis should take up prime closet space. Remove items you don't wear or relegate them to the back of the closet. Place items in boxes or bags with labels, i.e., sweaters, jeans, etc. and if you have the space, place these items in long term storage.Use Creative Storage SolutionsIf you don't have storage space, use your creativity. Chances are you'll find space if you sort through and purge another area.
Try under the bed, an old trunk, storage locker, attic or basement.
(Note:
to create under-the-bed storage, try bed risers).
Highlight What You Can WearBring items you can wear to the front of your closet, drawers and shelves. Organize them neatly, store 'like' items together, give them the nicest hangers and use shelf dividers to stack items neatly.
You'll have a feeling of more control over your daily routine, a clean closet and a fresh start for the new year.Still, Nothing Fits!If you find that after sorting, purging and storing you have absolutely nothing to wear, now's the time to make a decision.
You may need to bite the bullet and buy a couple of changes of 'fat' clothes so you at least have something to wear during your transition.
If money is a concern, try resale shops and online discount outlets; use Google to find stores and outlets in the area. The good news is, ?you'll have some things that fit until you get down to the size you want.A Fresh Start and Clean ClosetWhen you're done with this process, items you can wear are easily accessible and you can focus on getting in shape and pay less attention to the question, "What will I wear"?
When you think you've gone down a size you can easily pull out of storage something that fits and take joy in your progress!

A Special Kind Of Love
My grandmother taught me to crochet the moment my clumsy, chubby fingers could hold a crochet hook. By the time that I was six, she handed me her sewing needles to thread for her because her eyes could no longer see the needle's eye. When I was eight, my mother spent all of her precious off-work night-time hours making me a spring wardrobe that I can still describe in minute detail, right down to the rick-rack that trimmed the red kerchief that matched the tulip sprigged sleeveless dress. I can recall precisely the colors and patterns of the nightgowns my grandmother sewed for me. My brothers will tell you that they've never worn anything so warm and comfortable as Nana's knitted socks.
I even remember the weight of the stocking cap my mother knit to match the checkerboard cardigan - that matched the blue one she knit for my brother.There is a magic in handmade clothing that transcends the colors, the styles, even the quality of the handiwork. It's as if every stitch and every...

10 Tips on How to Give Yourself the Best Chance for Success on a First Date- Especially if You Have
Copyright 2006 Heartmind Connection, LLC
Let's say during the last couple of weeks you have communicated with someone of interest via emails and several telephone conversations.
There is obvious "phone chemistry" and there is a mutual interest in meeting each other.
You both agree to meet in person -now for the moment of truth!
1. Visualize Success:
Think about your wonderful attributes and not your faults.
Take an inventory of your values, skills, talents, interests and "heart".
Leave all your negative thoughts at home.
2. Keep Your Expectations in Check:
Don't start imagining yourself at the alter with your date.
Ask yourself these 3 questions: Do I like the person? Does the conversation flow easily with one another? Is there any kind of attraction?
That's it.
If you answer yes to these questions, then be open to seeing the person again.
3. Dress Appropriately...

I still can't understand it. After all these years, I can't make a lick of sense out of what folks consider to be in or out of fashion ? appropriate or inappropriate attire or appearance. What was "in" last year, might be "out" this year ? or it might be in but you need to change what you wear with it. What was OK for spring and summer probably won't work well for fall and winter - weather considerations aside. And what is in was likely already in somewhere around 20 or so years ago but then it went out so something else could be in.
And why don't they just come right out and say FAKE fur instead of trying to dress it up with a fancy foreign word? Thank God for jeans?I gotta find the Fashion Holy Book. I know there has to be one out there somewhere that says that it's a sin to wear the same thing as you wore last year. Or maybe it's just sometimes that it's a sin. I dunno. All I know is that the ladies section has to be really big.
Like maybe everything but the last seven...
