It's Spring, and most of my clothes are too big for me now (again)!  
I'm quite handy with a sewing machine (among other things ;-), but it's
getting to the point where it's awkward to keep taking my old clothes
in -- you can only do so much taking in the sides and it's annoying to
have to put a LOT of work into practically remaking an entire top or
pair of pants when they don't seem worth the effort.  It's also
difficult to work with things like knit sweaters, so I'm going to bite
the bullet and buy some new stuff.  Also, I have a lot of stuff that
was bought with me feeling fat and dowdy in mind (i.e., just trying to
cover myself up) -- I want some CUTE stuff!  I wanted to wait until I
got down to 125 lbs, but that could take a while.  So today I bought 3
new tops (one of them will have to wait until I get down to 125 lbs,
but I absolutely LOVE it) and I'm going to buy some new pants soon.  I
made myself a promise that I'll toss out/give away at least one old
item for each new one I buy.
