No. She’s elected to be on inactive status since 1993.

Hey, even with the dadbod he’s got going on there, he’s still better to watch and a more interesting person than the current cast of candidate characters.

Oh, and I know my waist and leg-length, but my legs tend to be too long for petites and too short for regular (even with 4" heels)...and so absent tailoring, they’re never even close.

I’m short, too! And I look for things that accentuate the hourglass (even the expanded one of the last year or two); size 6 and under, I found lots of choices; once I hit 8-10, everything seemed to be cut to apple shapes and/or boxed up, leaving extra fabric here and over-snugness there. I tend to look more at flowy

You don’t have to convince me! :-) And yes, like in your response to accesscode, “my size” varies according to store, line, designer, and, apparently, the alignment of planets. I will say, though, that I think we women kind of hate hearing actual numbers (measurements); it takes ages of experience with this or that

You’ve got your answer, but CORRECT - none of those women is wearing a pantsuit. Those are SEPARATES.

Oh, I know, and I hope you don’t think I was being glib - my point in including the thinnest skeleton of my own situation was to suggest that I totally get the pressures of massively competing priorities; I have had nearly 15 years of it. And that as someone who has been pushed to the brink and beyond, I also know

Myrna, I feel you. I’m a 20-year lawyer/risk professional historically at large firms/fortune 50 companies, divorced mother of 2 girls (for the last 10 years), with a disengaged clinical narcissist of an ex-husband who fundamentally thinks women are even less human than the rest of the universe. ...Consider letting go
