Jeans and Sandles
The other day, I was at Walmart and looking for a pair of jeans. I like ones with elastic waist. These were JMS (just my size) (2X - 18/20 petite) pull on stretch jeans. These have a slim ankle and stitching around the ankle. I got them home and was thrilled with how they fit and felt. I don't understand how I fit petite, because I always wore average, but they fit great. I soon began to think about how Bob wants to wear jeans so bad.... but.... they are such a pain, so hard to get on, to pull up the zipper, to do the snap or button (ouch my fingers!), and to get back off. I looked at these jeans and thought... why not try them on him? We are both about the same size and same height. They fit! Just as easy to put on as jogging pants and shorts! He is sooooooo thrilled with his new jeans, finally he can wear jeans again! He feels like a REAL person!
And on top of that, I found sandals for him - $20 ! I'm always checking out the shoe dept for something that might look like it could fit him. I saw these sandals, and the insoles are like soft memory foam, that allow his curled toes room to breathe and not feel pain under the curled toes! Although he never really talks about it, today he said this is the first time in 4 years that he walks without pain!
I have taken a pic of him on our way to a dr appt. It is sooo hot and he is sweltering, but patiently stands still for the pic so I could show y'all his new jeans and sandals
