It is kind of hard to pick the banjo with astronaut gloves on... takes a LOT of practice!

OMG! LOL MOUJ & PJ!

Still laughing. Ahh, the good old days....

I have a dark blue pair of Rockies that are 13/14 and a brown pair of button fly Wranglers that are 11/12.
I just moments ago tried on the blue ones. I can just get them on without busting the fly. I can't even come close to zipping them yet. Just fitting them over my rear end is exciting to me. It is closer that I have ever been since high school.

Jeff, thanks! I got a bigger laugh out of your response than I did from the original photos. You're a good sport!

PJ: I bet that's what the other members of the band say about MOUJ too: good sport and great astronaut-suited banjo picker! Gotta love a man in uniform!!! I humbly withdraw my request...I'm now seriously TERRIFIED at what Stu will show up in.

Hey Nancy . . . do you want to borrow my iron? LOL

I don't recall having a specific item of clothing that I wanted to get in to. My initial goal was to get to about size 18 (US14). I thought I'd be happy just to get there. I'd be happy. Yeah right! I'm now a size 12 (US8) and I love it. I think I was the most excited the day I could get in to size 12 jeans. Heck I'd started in the dressing room with 16's.

My next goal is to wear an absolutely sexy drop dead goreous Art Deco gown. I have a formal dinner to go to in mid-April and I want to knock their socks off. It's for St John and there will be a lot of people that haven't seen me since my op. They will see me in my uniform and civies throughout the previous couple of days but wait til they see me all dollied up! I'm going to buy one of those body suit dress thingies to ACCENTUATE my curves woohoo. Can't wait!
