It has always been difficult to be a junior high size - at 18, 21, 41, 61 ... well, Always. Today it became even worse. I puzzled that all the women on the tv news, weather and whatnot were wearing low-cut New Year's Eve party clothes and their WonderBras. Today it hit home. I ordered a nice tunic for a very special graduation ceremony. FedEx. Tracking it, it went from MO to MS to KS to TN back to MO back to TN back to MS and finally here. Twelve days. I showed the delivery guy the tracking chart. He said they must smoke a lot of the fun stuff at the center. I tried on the tunic. Lovely. Elegant. Understated. Unless, of course, you consider the concern that I don't have a new ring for my bellybutton. Had to remove the sleeve caps, take out about 3" from the neckline and replace the sleeves. Not a big deal. Easy, actually. Good grief. Where do we buy clothes if we are not wanting to look like a Happy Hooker? with apology to my crocheting friends, Polly
