Today was one of those Pacific Northwest days that starts off bright, before going dark and wet until just before sunset when the sun pops out again to make its excuses. I thought it was quite considerate of the sun to announce the beginning and the end of the day.
After dropping the girls off at school, I set off on my Search.
Long story short, I was amazingly, uncharacteristicly, unexplainably, successful. Support was found without sacrificing shape. Nordstroms was conquered without encountering any overbearing sales help, and I am now the proud owner of new jeans (purchased on sale) that don't gap in the back. I even found I'd gone down a pant size (two at the Gap). Oh, it was a good day. The heavy rain even held off until we were all home and safe.
