It Is Friday, So Time For The 24-Update

Yes, two weeks have gone by already!  It is once again time for the 24-Update, where I try on my old size 24 jeans - the ones that have been taunting me forever.

Here is the link to my first attempt:

24-Update # 4:

PLENTY of leg room this time around, but the tummy is still in the way.

I can get the zipper up about 1/4 of the way though - so, progress! 

The button and button hole still have about 2.5" to go, to meet together, but the gap is shrinking.   I can get the edges of the waistband fabric to touch (barely), if I suck in my abs.  Not comfortable, not buttoned, definitely not zipped, but getting closer every (other) week.

These size 24 jeans are very light colored tan - great for summertime - but I'm going to where them WHENEVER they first fit me, I don't care if it is winter!   For now, I have tucked them back into the drawer, to await the next biweekly attempt to try them on. 

So ends this 24-Update! 

In other news, Dad needs a transfusion, so that is on the agenda for later today.  It is going to be a long day ...

Enjoy your weekend!  And thanks to those who are remembering my father in their prayers!  It is appreciated so very much ...

More later (?) ...
