Heather, it is nice to have more free space in the attic. You can actually walk around up there again now. I'd like to keep it that way, but I'm sure in no time something else will be hauled up there to take it's place! LOL
So, an update. My sons class did win the competition. So yay for them. But the way this thing worked was each thing was given a point value. Summer clothes were given more points than winter clothes, so this means that some poor faculty members at school had to go through ALL those boxes. My son said he heard teachers talking about it. lol
So, as some of you know, I work part time at school and I went in around 11:00 yesterday. One of the secretaries that had to go through my clothes came over to me and just said, "WOW, Lori, I never realized how far you have come." She apparently got the box of size 26-30 stuff to go though. (poor girl). I was a little worried about who would be looking through the stuff, (hoping it wouldn't be the "hot" gym coach...haha
) Thankfully it was her. Anyway, I did get a lot of comments which felt weird. Most of those people knew me fat, but there have been a few teachers come in that had never met me until I lost weight. So, yeah, it was awkward. I wish they didn't have to open the boxes, and went by weight or something...like they do for food drives. Oh well. I'm still free at last.
