Blessing Fairy Strikes Again and Big Girls & Goodwill...

So, I've been showered with blessings these past few weeks.  I am very very very thankful for all of them...!  Thankful for the people behind them and the Lord who made it possible.  It has been a tough time juggling the little $money$ I DO have between bills, necessities and gas... Then throwing Christmas for my baby girl.... OYE VEY!  So, to my Blessing Fairies... THANK YOU and also a BIG "shout-out" to Jesus, My Homeboy!!
Since being up here, I've had to purchase an entire winter wardrobe for Claire.  Can I just say... I LOVE GOODWILL!!  The one up here carries some really good stuff!  I've been able to buy Claire Limited Too, Justice, Gap, Anne Taylor, Talbots, Polo, Ralph Lauren, some Pierre guy who makes a MEAN sweater, Simply Vera, etc...  and I've NEVER paid over $3.00 for an item!  Most times I pay $1.50 each...!  Saved me TONS! 

And speaking of TONS...

Unfortunately, the Goodwill up here doesn't have clothes for Big Girls...  It's because Big Girls hang onto their clothes FOR LIFE.  We find a shirt that fits us "right now" and we wear it till we grow out of it... then it goes in the closet till we can fit into it again (yeah right...).  But we will NOT get rid of it! A few reasons why we won't part with the clothes... goes something like this:  " I looked GOOD in that shirt!  I ain't givin it up to some other fat girl who will just stretch it out!"  Or... "Oooo, I was wearin THAT outfit when that one guy actually talked to me.  If I give it to Goodwill, some other heifer will pick it up, wear it out and take my man from me! I ain't takin a chance at losing the man of my dreams.  This thing has GOT to go back in the closet... Some skank tryin to steal what's mine... I saw him first.  She better recognize what she dealin with..."

Whatever Big Girl... Whatever...
Just let the shirt go...
