Hey, at least it wasn't a "malfunction." I'm at a crossroads when it comes to dressing myself. Some days it goes off without a hitch, while other days--like today--I end up disgusted with everything in my closet. I always take Jax out right after my shower, so getting dressed is sometimes a two-step process (you know...pants and a shirt to get me by until I dry my hair and put on makeup; then I change anything that wasn't my original plan and go about my business), but I couldn't find the shirt I planned to wear this morning. Anywhere. So, I grabbed a different shirt for the time being and decided I'd look for it later.
While Jax and I were outside, I decided that I might not be able to swing these pants all day long. After sitting for five minutes to watch the news and weather segments, I decided they'd definitely have to go. I went straight to my closet...looked for that missing shirt one more time (no luck) and found a pair of all-elastic-waist pants that I'd forgotten about (they've been too big for quite some time, but I hadn't gotten rid of them). I said aloud (to myself, mostly), "Hey, I wonder if these will fit?" J blurts out, "Well those sure don't!" He was referring to the pants I had on. Babe, if you're reading this, you might try to be a little more sensitive next time.
The pants fit, by the way...but they looked like they'd been hanging in the closet on a hanger for a year. Which is probably because they've been there for about 2 years. I have 3 pairs of maternity pants--black, khaki, and navy. My mom had just hemmed the black and khaki ones, and she actually sewed a maternity panel in an old pair of navy pants. It was looking like I'd have to wear one of them today. The problem? I don't have a lot of shirts that are long enough to cover the panels. I finally scrounged one up, decided I looked decent enough to go in public (I didn't ask J, though), and headed off to school, disgusted.
I'll admit, though...these pants feel awesome.
*Sigh* Now, I get to do it all over again for church tonight. I know what I'm wearing, though...if I remember it. I was "supposed" to wear it last night. But I forgot. My poor sleep-deprived brain isn't functioning properly these days.
Hope all is well with you.
Hugs and love,

Yes... you must give in to the maternity pants, and invest in a few shirts that are long enough. Good luck with your church clothes tonight!
I hear ya...getting ready for work every morning is comical with what fits and doesn't anymore. I might give in to maternity pants soon.
Ok, so I could have written this post! LOL I hate getting dressed for work...I so need to go shopping and get clothes that fit, well. :/ My friend keeps urging me to the maternity pants that I'll be more comfortable...maybe I should give in too!
Also, thanks for your comment...I didn't realize (or forgot is probably more like it) that you are on Lovenox too. Shot #1 wasn't bad...kinda like Lupron. I have a question though, is your OB monitoring your blood to make sure it doesn't get too thin? If so, how often? If not, did they tell you why? I asked today, and mine said they would just check at my regular appt...my sister is a nurse and is questioning this.
