Angie, I just realized I never replied to this comment. Thank you so much! I do want to lose weight, as I think I will feel better and feel less daunted by the prospect of trying on clothes.

Your home is lovely Susan, but you are too hard on yourself. Even though you may consider yourself overweight, you do not look overweight to me. You have a nice shape and a beautiful face.

Hi Kristin, thank you, we love the kitchen too :-)

And I am so ready to be shocked with fabulousness if at all possible!

Susan: First off, your house is gorgeous. I love your kitchen! Secondly, you are gorgeous too! You may feel you need to lose 25 lbs but I don’t see it. I think with some great new, chic garments you are going to shock yourself with fabulousness.

Wendy, OMG, you’re kidding! I’m going to have to try that now. But I’ll wear dark glasses when I go to Walgreen’s to buy Rogaine.

Hi Wendy, welcome to my whacky blog :-).

You’ll have to trust me about the neck of doom.

That’s interesting you stopped worrying about blacks matching. Mrs. neighbor, the stylist, say you have to care about the base color of the black when matching other colors with the blacks though.

Oh, and one of my female relatives — who I won’t identify because she would kill me — got women’s Rogaine for her thinning hair and it worked wonders. I can really see the difference!

I love the Ruby Woo on you. Lipstick goes a long way to brightening up a look! You’re making me laugh about the neck of doom…I don’t believe it’s as bad as you claim ;-)

I used to care a lot about my blacks matching but all of a sudden I stopped. Now I just wear them willy-nilly.

Hi Pat,

I agree about successful PF bloggers having a focus on expertise.

I recommend going to

searching on “blog story” in the search box and reading Anna’s post on your blog’s story. She’s really figured this stuff out.

Susan, Think I have been slowly inching into flavoring posts with more personal bits. Just had an email conversation with another PF blogger who talked about the fact the more popular PF blogs have a tight focus on the blogger’s expertise. Problem is rather than narrowing my focus, I’m so interested in so many things, I keep widening mine.
