Subject: RE: FITNESS & Declutter 2022 - Pandemic redux
Charmion, the two one-piece suits I have are Speedos and are pretty true to size in their fit. The older suit (size 12) is a standard one-piece suit with "classic" coverage, typical legs (not high legs) and the bodice comes to just above cleavage. The size 14 is a more modest one selected for how the legs fit (so the leg holes didn't come way up my hips, etc.) and the bodice comes closer up to the collar bones. If you poke around and adjust the settings (recreational swimwear, training swimwear, racing swimwear, all one piece swimwear) and go from there you can set other featues (coverage, size, etc.) and come up with something to order and try. I go to Academy Sports and Outdoors here in town to try them on, I have no idea if they're also in Canada. (Speedo has a one-piece suit with a shirred panel up the front that is very attractive, but I wonder how it looks on a real human woman?)

Don, dropping one-off posts to do only with the pandemic don't fit the character of this discussion, they're a jarring diversion from the general topic. I'm sure when the next Pfizer vaccine (developed to address a couple of the current variants) is available we will be noting when we go get our jabs, and possibly discuss side effects. In the general course of our daily decluttering activities.

We didn't have flooding here at my house but the creek was very full for the time of that heavy rainfall. I walked to the back of the yard and saw no signs that it was over it's bank and running across the yard (though there were lots of little "high tide" marks where puddles formed on the lawn and the dry grass drifted to the edge to form a little berm.) I'm hoping this helped the foundation a bit by soaking into the ground around the house. In this part of Texas we have to "water the foundation" to keep it from cracking worse.

Has anyone else noted that any time you go into certain brick-and-mortar stores that after the purchase the emails from that company start up? I have to look the DSW clerk in the eye and tell her "do not turn on email notifications!" because they always do that at their registers. And Tractor Supply was emailing a receipt. I have one in my hand, I don't need another plus all of the ads coming to my email. Decluttering the email may be a small thing, but it's damned annoying to have to unsubscribe any time I go to the actual store.
