Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ September 28, 2022
I may as well just wear this dress every day. It feels like I already do. When I look at my TikTok profile it’s like 3:1 green polka dot dress to anything else.
I’m in that “am I going? aren’t I going?” limbo…I was supposed to be flying down to Katie’s in FL Thursday night (I’m writing this on Wednesday afternoon)…but…hurricane…flights all being cancelled…she got me booked on another flight Friday at noon but I don’t know how likely it is that that will be taking off, either. I’m trying to remain optimistic for her cuz I know how badly she wants to come up here to do a friend’s weddingy thing…and I need to get down there to dog-sit for her so she can come up.
I know these are insignificant issues compared to like ALL OF CUBA being without power and whatever other damage this storm has already done (and will continue to do). Her power went out a couple hours ago and the storm hasn’t even REALLY hit St Petersburg (where she lives) yet. She covered up all the windows and french doors and brought all the outdoor furniture in, stocked up on food and bottled water, and charged all her electronics. Then you just wait.
Anyway. I’ll make a pile tonight of things I’ll take if I go…but I’m not actually Going to the Suitcase til I get confirmation of the Friday flight.
Hope everyone else is safe and dry…

Bettye, I live in the same county as your daughter (Pinellas). I can tell you we were without power for a day, just got it back a couple hours ago. And the internet just came back on less than an hour ago. We really dodged a bullet here in Pinellas but I’m in the middle of the county. I hope your daughter fared well too. Now that being said, I don’t know what flying here would be like and you’d have to redirect around Ian as he makes his way towards South Carolina. Hopefully your plans and hers will all work out.

Everything worked out, Rita, thanks. She was out of power for a little over 24 hours but other than a backyard and pool full of palm fronds, no damage. I’m so grateful.

I hope Katie’s doing well. The pictures/video from the storm look awful. My parents are in Kissimmee, so I was pretty stressed. They managed to go unscathed. #Thankful Love the dress. I find that I’m wearing the same things on repeat too. I have so many clothes and no excuse.

Yeah I’ve been in “I’d be happy with 3 outfits” mode. It’s a little harder with work but even there I’m utilizing only a small percentage of my wardrobe at this point. Glad to hear your parents didn’t have any storm damage.
