I also have three children, one college graduate, one who has had some “struggles” and “should” have graduated this past weekend, and one two years done with college. Dresses in my closet that no longer fit this body… they have been in there for 20+ years. I am relatively almost the same size, but as you said, the waist and boobs are bigger and do not quite fit into these beautiful dresses I have. My 22 yo daughter is taller than me and really doesn’t fit nor want my old dresses, but there they are. The ones I wore at my wedding showers, the one I wore for my engagement picture (been married for 28 yrs). Why can I not let them go? I know I need help.
My mom passed away four years ago and most of her things are still in the house with my dad. It is overwhelming to think about doing. Both of my brothers are out of town.
I appreciate your blogs and honesty. I read them and think, yes, right, I can do that, start small. I am trying. Keep up the great work Carrie, you are inspiring. 🙂
