Right now my life sucks. It will get better; it has been better. But right now - it sucks!

Oh dear. Almost a year and a grand total of four posts. I really have to make more of an effort!

I finally figured out how to successfully have a capsule wardrobe - be really poor and gain weight!

I've gained weight since I quit smoking a year ago and don't really have the money to replace my wardrobe. So I've been making do with what I had that was big back when I was small. That means I have some tops, one pair of 15-year-old sweatpants, one pair of yoga pants, one pair of cotton legging-type pants (that aren't comfortable so I don't wear them unless I have no other option), and one pair of jeans that I picked up in a thrift shop for $9.99.

I HAVE to get some clothes. But I've learned a lot since I last bought clothes and I'll be buying them slowly and with care. They will have to fit like a dream, be multi-occasional, wear well, and be of a reasonable quality.

I don't want many things - just a few really good ones that will make me feel good when I'm wearing them.

But ... I don't know where to start!

Any suggestions?

I wish I were 20 again.

Apparently I'm not ready to start blogging again!

I originally started this blog in 2003 with the best intentions. But I wound up posting maybe 10 times over a bit more than 3 years. So I deleted the few posts I had and let the account just sit.

I think I may be ready to start again. We'll see.
