Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 I can feel your excitement, Janice! I remember when I bought my first pair of size 8 jeans. I got them home and just stared at them like maybe I bought them for my daughter instead of me. It's the small things that make my spirit soar! Congrats...wear them proudly, Janice. You deserve it!
