You know that shirt you buy on vacation that never fits because you buy it one size smaller than you really need, not wanting to admit what size you really need?  Well, mine is a black sweat shirt from Ottawa that I bought 9 years ago this month.  I’ve worn it before, but it was always apparent that I really shouldn’t so I always had a jacket over it.

Well, I’m getting over the flu and even though the house is warm enough for the kids, I’m a little cold so I decided to try it on since it is my only sweat shirt and I didn’t feel like wearing a sweater.  Lo and behold, it fit!  It didn’t just barely fit, it did what black is supposed to do.  It makes those last 10 pounds I’ve lost look like 20.

Now to see if some of my old jeans will fit.
