  I found a bunch of jeans and capris that I haven't fit into since about 5-6 years ago.  Well, I thought, "Here goes nothing!"  I tried them on and they all fit!  This made me so incredibly happy!  I washed them all and they're waiting in my dresser once again.

  :-h Hi Quigley!  How's the reno going?  Way to fit back into old clothes, what a great feeling!

  
  

  My FGF: Yesterday I was chatting with one of my colleagues in our corporate office via IM and he gave me a bit of a lecture about positive thinking and told me that just smiling helps.  He is going through a divorce and has been forcing himself to smile as well.  Today I joined a conference call that he was on and I said "Hi Corey, I'm smiling!" and he said "I can hear that, keep it up!".  The fact that he could hear the smile in my voice really made me feel good.

  @HoldingOutHope‌ that is so incredibly wonderful!!! (and ps I'm so jealous of you & @MyFirstRaspberry‌ 's GTG)
  
  My FGF was yesterday. It's actually thanks to you HOH. My body is acting really strange, and I felt like I was going crazy. So I txted HOH to ask her opinion. She was so supportive and even though she was stumped too, she made me feel less crazy & not alone in that moment. Which is exactly what I needed. So thank you lady for being such a good friend! :x

  @HoldingOutHope, what an awesome care package! They rock.

  I've got a couple this week...

  I weighed myself a few days ago, and I'm down 11 lbs since I started running in May. I had been hovering around 151 lbs for weeks, so when I saw 148, I was thrilled!

  I couldn't be happier that my HSG is done and over with. One of my tubes may be blocked, so that sucks, but honestly, I'm just glad that test is done, and I hope that I don't ever have to have another one.

  My H knew I was kind of in a funk yesterday after having the HSG in the morning, so when he got home from work, he offered to have a date night. We went for a walk in the woods, and then got Thai take-out. He's a good egg.

  @Cfearsy it really is the little things that bring us happiness. 

  My FGF was last night. We have a friend going through a separation and he's staying with us until he can get back on his feet. He works 6 days a week and is rarely home. Last night I came home to a spotless house! Floors mopped, dishes done, the whole shebang! We are hosting a BBQ, bachelor party and a pool party this weekend so I took today off to get the house ready, and now I can just relax and have some time for myself which is such a rarity these days.

  @holdingouthope that story made me tear up.  So sweet.
  
  My FGF is that I met with my new job starting in the fall which is 1.5 hrs away from home instead of working several states away.  Still not ideal but at least closer.  Plus my sister lives there and we had a nice lunch and shopping.

  FGF: The fedex guy delivered me some meds! I went through a mess of stuff the last few days to get these meds so I for the first time ever am excited to give myself shots. this is the strangest phenomenon I've experienced in awhile since I hate needles. But I'm so proud of myself and love the fedex guy (don't tell MH).

  My FGF is that I'm so grateful for such good friends! SO and I are having a tough time (not with each other but some tough life situations) and the amount of support we are receiving is incredible. I've had friends check in to see how I'm doing and had one just stop by. It means a lot to me- these past six years have been super tough but it's the support and love that continues to surround me that makes it bearable

  Hey Quig! Great work - it's such a fantastic feeling to be able to fit into clothing that was once too small!
  
  My FGF:
  
  Last weekend I got to meet up with my friend @myfirstraspberry for dinner. We enjoyed some wonderful martinis, good food, and great company. And she showed up with this care package that she and @natsfans84 had put together for me following my loss! It took a lot for me to keep the tears back, because honestly this was just one of the sweetest gestures ever shown to me!
  
  Look at how phenomenal this care package was! There was a movie, a journal, spa masks, yummy snacks and chocolate, a candle, wine, Kleenex, and the beautiful necklace pictured below.
  
  
  
  
  
  I am just so humbled beyond belief that these two ladies - who are both going through their own tough times - would do this for me. If ever there was a testament to the closeness of the community, this is certainly one for the books. And definitely my most valued FGF post to date.
  
  Thank you so much, Ras & Natsfans. I love you ladies. :x

  @HoldingOutHope - my pleasure. I'm so glad we could hang out. The care package was put together for you, however, hanging out with you was a real treat for me. I wish natsfan could have joined us.
