Sherri, I'm sending a big hug to beautiful you! Yours is a struggle most of us have shared, and your mirror idea is so great! Believe what you read on that mirror :)
Hugs and Happy Day! Peace in our hearts, peace in the world Matthew 25:40 Amy (Sister#6098) www.danaherandcloud.com

Sherri, you are beautiful in every way! I believe half the battle is knowing that you have this issue.
I grew up feeling this way and was not able to change my way of thinking until I was almost 40. I worked at it one adjective at a time. I went from "scrawny" to "petite". Song Sparrow has a bit of good advice about that mirror. Take good care of your "self" and your daughter will see that too. Hugs.

I did some mending yesterday on my own clothes...which usually come last. Can I get a smiley face, please?

Thank you all for your encouragement. This WIP (work in progress) is 50 years in the making and still going strong one step at a time.
Love you all!

I've gotten some UFOs done.

Darned my pair of pink Sole Mates socks.

Darned my pair of purple Sole Mates socks.
I have a new strategy for completing some of my mending. I gather all the pieces that can be hand mended in a clear zipper bag with all the necessary supplies. I then take it with me to the couch and work on them while I watch TV.

UFOs have just gone by the wayside lately for me. And the list keeps growing. Hopefully when I get back from Michigan in July, I can finish some. I have a quilt retreat the weekend after I get back and can usually get stuff done then. 4 days to just sew helps a lot.

Judy, that little skirt and the little girl in it are adorable!
Grace, its only because of the flooding and everything mmoving upstairs from the basement that I can see my mending pile. lol. Just throw your's on the top. Oh, my. The piles way too high to move your's to the bottom.
Now your socks are ready for another Minnesota winter, Marie!

Today I was motivated to fix the lining that was tearing on my daughter's duvet cover and I fixed a tear in her lace skirt. Can't hardly see it, unless you get REALLY close to her butt!

It's immediately to the right of the zipper. I was very careful & did tiny stitches.

Glad to see everyone is getting things done. I did all my birthday squares for a swap. Today I have organized my paints . Each kind is in a tub and will be easy to find . I will be painting ceramics tomorrow. Feeling excited to be able to find what I need.
