Thanks all!

RunningSue - it's my own fault for not checking. I didn't know they had such good return policy in Canada. Usually it's non existent, and theirs is amazing! So I will definitely know for next time, and will be shopping online there more now.

Your mountainous jumper looks fabulous.

Rae, I forgot all about the flu when I saw your fresh face sporting "le no-makeup" look. I wish I looked that good when I was sick and sleep deprived!

Anyway, I hope I didn't talk you into the wrong size. I think it will stretch a little, without ever "stretching out". It looks really good on you, and it has just enough extra length to keep you covered. If you wear a lot of oversized things, it can be nice to have a body-con piece or two. Plus you will probably wear it under blazers and such, no? If not, you can always exchange it for a small.

You look great in it, and I hope your family turns the corner soon and you get some rest.

Your son sounds adorable! And the sweater looks perfect --- not too form-fitting, but definitely feminine, which I always think is nice with the neutrality of a striped shirt or sweater.

I have to say, I *wish* I looked as good as you without make-up and sleep even when well! But you're probably feeling deplorable --- sounds like the package got here at just the right time for a cheerer-upper --- and I'm going to wish you and your family well very soon, and for good this season, instead!
