MAKING MY WAY TO THE LOCAL STORE
THAT SELLS ARIAT JEANS was on my TO-DO LIST.
I made it just in time to try on a couple of pairs of jeans, but they weren't ARIAT. Lucky me. The store only had up to a certain size and that wasn't mine.
The Salesclerk needs some training when helping out a newbie to their store. The chart to convert from waist/inseam to their size was pointed out to me by the clerk. She suggested that they might have my size in their LEVIS section. I found my size and pulled two pairs of jeans out of their stash as the clerk moseyed over to the check out desk and just stood there. I wanted ARIAT, but since they didn't have them, I did the next best thing and tried on LEVIS in the dressing room.
While trying on the jeans in their dressing room, I overheated which doesn't help a GRANNY undressing in distress in the first place.
What I saw in the dressing room mirror wasn't what I wanted to see. That woman was having difficulties believing she is so heavy. I put my original jeans back on and took my selection to the check-out. Checking out I left the store sweaty and a not so happy shopper. I left upset. Sat in the car and barked.
BARK BARK BARK bark bark BARK. One more...Baa-arrrkkkK. Get it out of my system.
I wasn't happy about being so heavy. I wanted new jeans to help with my wardrobe. Perhaps I should only wear dresses and skirts with tops/blouses. Stay in my housecoat and hibernate.
Drove the distance and I went to the KSU GARDENS to look at their irises that were not in bloom two weeks ago. Just walking around made me feel better. HOME I went.
I checked out ARIAT JEANS for women online and they are OUT OF STOCK, OUT OF STOCK,
OUT OF STOCK in my size.
The jeans I ended up buying will have to do until I go shopping again for smaller sizes after I reduce some more.
In the mean time, I have to forge ahead and make things happen. I will begin a DANIEL DIET today which I will stay on for 21 days. Then I will step on the scales and see if it budges. I will do light exercises along the way. A walk around the block is scheduled today. After 21 days, I will introduce to my diet some lean meats and dairy. If the scales don't budge I will cry.
Dear Lord, I need your help. Amen.
Rain this week and cleaning the house are on the agenda.
I need to get an Anniversary card and place it in the mail for my sister and her hubby as they will be celebrating 50 years of marriage next week. I'll order them some flowers mid-week.
No graduations or birthdays this week. Doctor's appointments and physical therapy though. Shopping for more vitamins and supplements. Bills to pay and prayers to pray. Letters to write and time to talk.
Will you be doing something new this week?
Blessings,
👵d
