Entry 314: X marks the spot

I am finally wearing XL's comfortably! I am so excited. I had noticed that my 2XL's were getting roomier and thought what the heck I'll try on an XL. The last time I ordered clothes I got 3 items in XL just for when the time came and it is here! I dug out my 2 shirts and 1 dress that I had ordered from GAP and they fit! I have the same dress and one of the same shirts in 2XL as well. I still have yet to step on the scale but to me this is almost better. The feeling, the rush I got when I put my XL clothes on and saw that they fit was priceless! Especially when I had expectations to be disappointed. I have worn a couple other XL's that I have had but they were jackets and the sizes ran bigger but for me to fit into a GAP XL was tits! It made it official. My next clothing experience will not be in the double X's anymore. I can't wait to drop that "X" PERIOD!

I have been good, keeping active and enjoying this beautiful weather we have been having. Yesterday I did some yard work and ran into a birds nest. I thought it was empty until I peeked inside and there were 4 pretty blue eggs in it! I am going to check it every day. I'm not tampering with it, just looking. I LOVE this kind of stuff! I read online about Robin eggs and they should hatch in a couple of weeks. I feel the obligation to keep an eye on it now since we have 2 stray cats that come and hang around our yard! I think they were just laid within a day or 2 of me discovering the nest because I had a friend over the day before last that saw a pregnant looking Robin in my yard! I hope their Mama can keep them safe enough when I can't be there to scare off any predators! But that is the circle of life, I just don't want to see something I wish I hadn't!
