I will definitely be back once I get myself back in order.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>We have a trip to Portugal in January which I'm excited about. I want to catch up on my sketching and of course my photography (I know you are the expert), getting back into shape, and figuring out my style.&nbsp;</p> <p>@Janet - I don't know what will come next, but for now, I just want to enjoy NOT working for a while. I would love to catch up with you at some point, maybe see a good concert here in DC or out where you are.&nbsp; Let's keep in touch. XXXOOO</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-hello-there#post-2290405 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 12:29:09 +0000 Janet 2290405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you, Naz! Wow, congrats on the next big adventure! My husband is another step towards retirement these days and also trying to figure out what comes next. I joke that artists never retire so the word isn’t even applicable to me. We should catch up again sometime if you ever want to meet up — it’s been a while! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/well-hello-there#post-2290325 Tue, 08 Nov 2022 00:46:31 +0000 Anonymous 2290325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back!

Time sure does fly.&nbsp; A lot has been happening with personal stuff so that's kept me busy. Fashion and style has not been on my list since working from home during COVID, and of course with that come menopause and weight gain.&nbsp; It's been a struggle and most of work clothes are a bit snug. Hence I have not bought anything in over 2 years, give or take a few pairs of shoes and essentials.</p> <p>On a few good notes, I'm a second time aunt as of today, and hubby and I have made a major life decision: I will be leaving my job for good (EGADS!! Should I say I'm retiring??) at the end of the year.&nbsp; I am looking forward for the new stage of my life and its a scary process for sure, but as my counselor told me, "don't retire from something, retire to something." I've picked up sketching, I'd like to go back to photography, and finally do some much needed traveling.</p> <p>Meanwhile, I'm trying to get back into shape, although it's taking it's sweet old time for those numbers to drop. I've started running and weight training again, and my goal is to look in decent shape by New Year since its my birthday and then I can start thinking about my love for clothes. One thing COVID has taught me is to shop mindfully with quality in mind.</p> <p>I'll be looking forward to posting here again and seeing everyone's post.</p> <p>Naz </p>
