Does anyone else get the clothing blues? I have them, bad. I have not been buying many clothes and all of a sudden I feel like the drabbest, pudgiest, most middle ageist woman on the planet.
I know it is dumb and sort of self centered. I mean, our 'outer layer' does not matter much.
But, all the same, I like my outer layer to look somewhat orderly.
I think this has to do with my mom. She was a clothes horse of massive proportions. She left behind a lot of nice clothes, some of which I have worn in the last few months. But, I am feeling weird about that. I am also feeling weird about the fact that I threw out stuff that was too big but am still too fat for some of her things. That makes me feel bad.
I am sort of being my own inner mom....
She would have been the first to tell me I look sort of drab.
I miss that honesty. I miss the irritant that only my mother could be to me.
I miss her mommy smell.
I miss her.
