Shopping for an outfit for an interview tomorrow. Quite possibly the worst experience of my life as the size 26 clothes are more like tents than shirts and pants. Surgery and a new life can't get here fast enough!!!

Totally understand your pain. Hope you can find something to at least feel pulled together tomorrow. Wishing you a quick wait for surgery!

Have you gone to Catherine's? They have some nice tops and pants that don't look like messy when on.

I like dress barn for work appropriate dresses and check out if there is a store called "Clothes Mentor" in your area. It is the grown up equivalent to Once Upon a Child and Platos closet. They are very picky about the clothes they accept and their pricing, while not cheap, is definitely better than buying items new. You are going to be on the loser's bench soon so it doesn't have to last 10 years. Good luck at your interview!

Update: After leaving Catherine's a feeling a little better since I found an OK outfit, my phone was stolen at The Shoe Depot! I will now have to pay a 200 dollar deductible for a new phone, which makes this outfit pretty darn expensive. Worse, I lost many photos and videos of my two-year-old that I will never be able to get back. All and all, not a great shopping trip!

That is so awful about your phone and losing precious pictures. So sad. But I'm glad you did find a nice outfit. Good luck on your interview!

Thanks so much for your support!

Just go in and exude confidence. If it is meant to be it will be. I will promise you that the best is to come, and having the sleeve will be the best thing you ever did for yourself. Your phone is a material thing, but I am so sorry. I feel that pain. Hunt up some replacement pictures you shared with others or on FB. Also that phone may turn up so be sure and retrace your steps before you order another phone! Good luck for everything to come!
