---is digging out my jeans and trying to squeeze into them.
This morning I decided I was wearing jeans to work! I have to tell you---I own a lot of jeans. If I was to estimate how many pairs I have folded (and thrown) up on my closet shelf I would say its probably close to 30 pairs! Isn't that crazy?! And out of all those jeans, I don't think I have a single pair I am perfectly happy with. One pair is TOO long (I purchased the Extra long pair because they were on clearance)....another pair feels like "high waters" ..... another makes me look to "hippy" ...... another makes me feel like I have muffin tops because the waist is so low. I could go on and on and on! I don't know what makes me purchased jeans that I am absolutely going to hate after a few washes. (Maybe its not me...maybe its my dryer that is causing my jeans to shrink?) But I love buying jeans--which you may have guessed from the number I have in my closet. If I get a chance to shop at "The Rack," the first rack I scavenge through (after the shoes of course) is the jeans!
Now--- if you have read any of my posts in the last month or so you are probably thinking to yourself, "That's what you get for eating a dozen cupcakes from Sprinkles in one week and making 'Big Head's' Fried Nutella Ravioli, etc." And that's OK. I deserve it. I think I need a drill instructor (aka trainer) like "The Biggest Loser." Someone to yell in my face every time I pick up something with lard and sugar in it! Ya think that will work? Probably not! They call to me in my sleep....."Katie---eat me!" (After making the fried Nutella ravioli the first time, I could have sworn the Nutella was screaming my name from the pantry for days!Kaaaaatieeeeee....I'm waiting for you!)
Until I regain any kind of self control (or hit the gym), I guess I will continue to spray paint my jeans on.---Or maybe I could just wear shorts year around like my husband does! There's any idea. But then I would have to keep up with shaving my legs.
Its always something! Geeeeeesh!

I am pretty sure I have you beat on the jeans. Jared is always amazed at how I have a melt down EVERY time I get dressed. He will look in my closet FULL of clothes and just not understand. I tell him...this is for 1 week after a baby, two weeks after a baby, three weeks after a baby, etc. So he is wondering where the 13 months after a baby jeans are. I have to remind him that now I need 13 months after having twins jeans! Why is it that men can wear the same pair of jeans for years whether they have gained a few pounds or not, but if I even gain an ounce I'm screwed!!! I am so with you sista!
So, I seriously NEED another girls night. I had so much FUN!!! It can be trouble with you, me and Joy! Watch out! :o) I am home ALONE every weekend. So, if you ever wanna break free come on over!
Yes Carianne---I am with ya girl! I have my different piles of jeans. I have my "hopefully if I save these long enough I will get pregnant and be able to wear these the first 5 months" jeans, my "good luck girl, you probably will never squeeze into these again" jeans, my "last hope" jeans, my cheap, ugly camping" jeans, my "fat girl hopefully these will always be too big" jeans!
I have them all! Its so sad...
BUT, the answer may just be to have another girl's night! Sounds de-lish to me.
So let's gather up some girlies and come on over! I'm stuck here cause I have the 5 million kids. When I have the $ I can splurge for a babysitter too. So, I am famous now and was on the 11 o'clock news for channel 23! I'm selling my autograph on ebay! I totally looked like a dork and PLEASE tell me the camera really does add like 10 (or more) pounds to you. I really thought 17 was going to be the one that showed me since I talked for forever with them. But they didn't show anything from the rally. We will see what tomorrow morning shows.
I hate finding jeans...if I find one that actually fits me and isn't from the mens department, I usually buy 3 or 4 pairs. My problem is that they don't make womens jeans long enough...I can wear the Gap tall ones if I have flat shoes on, but if I want any type of heels, forget it. Who designs jeans anyways??? They should be fired!!! It is either a man or a stick thin woman who doesn't know what us women with real curves go through!!! I second Carianne's comment on men being able to wear their jeans even if they gain or lose weight...that is Bart...and it is a 15 pound fluctuation...I just don't get it!!! And I doubt I ever will!!!
I am the same way w/ jeans but I have to tell you I went to Buckle and they have these fab sales clerks that help fit you, I love my new jeans.
Thats why I just tell Katie to walk around naked!!!!
