Multiplying Slacks

Uncategorized 1 Minute

There is another mystery at my house. Weeks ago daughter Lise went with me to help pick out slacks appropriate to wear for physical therapy. I clearly remember buying two pair. I tried on both a few days ago. One fit fairly well, but the other was much too big. I thought that pair might do to walk to the stop sign, although I was shocked at how much extra material there was. I could only hope people would look at the road while driving and not look at me. I clearly remembered how I had to tug on the pants in the dressing room. A day or so later I put on the garment that I thought had been too big. It fit fairly well. My weight fluctuates, but not that much! How could clothes fit one day and be too big the next day?

When I was getting dressed to go to town, I found three pairs of exercise slacks!! How on earth did two turn into three?? I like the idea of multiplying clothing, but I wish they all fit. I’m sure the big ones don’t belong to Lise, because she wears jeans a size smaller than I do. She wouldn’t be caught dead in those balloony pants! I may wear them only in the house, but they are slated to go in the give-away pile soon.

    1. It wouldn’t have been an old pair, because I never had them before. I don’t think I have ever had a visitor who would have worn that size. I really cannot think where they came from.

  3. I know how clothes can become too small while just hanging a wardrobe or sitting in a draw that’s the work of bad fairies who sneak in and adjust the seams to make them small so the can have a laugh when we try them on and they don’t fit, so maybe there are so bad fairies who do the same type of thing making clothes larger, but I’m not sure. How two turned into three well that would be the work of a genie, just my thoughts
