I appear to be having clothing problems.
I need new clothes, but at present for 2 reasons I don't want to buy new ones, which leaves me with a problem, and looking like a bag of spuds.
Reason 1: I've lost 3 stones (about 20kg) since the end of May, and I hope to lose another 3 by the end of January. This means that any clothes I buy now will, like the present lot be too big by then, and I'll have to do a repeat performance.
Reason 2: Any clothes I bought to wear at work, for the time being, would have to be male clothes. I'd much rather spend money on skirts and more feminine garments than trousers. Did I say I hate trousers?
So, you can see my quandary, do I buy stuff now that I don't particularly like, or do I continue to look like a bag of spuds? What ever I do, it just feels like throwing money away.
On a weight related note, which does make me feel happy, I had the odd feeling yesterday and so far today of feeling *thin*. Yay! Still a long way to go though.
Oh, and my hair needs doing. But what colour though? No, I'm not going to let the residual colour grow out, as I don't want to go back to mouse+grey. It is sort of slightly coppery at the moment, apart from a lot of root growth. It is the residual from being a deep (permanent) purple in April, topped up with semi-permanent pink and lilac since, and the effect of the summer sun. Maybe I'll just have it all done to this coppery colour, as I actually like it. But then I am tempted to go to a more bold, maybe even outlandish, colour.
