The Art of Getting Smaller

Call me Alice, call me Alice because it really is true. If you eat or drink just the right thing you do get smaller. And like Alice, I have entered into this strange new world where everything seems to be too big, or is it just my perception. My altered perception of reality because my brain has not caught up to this world yet.
While I love this world, I feel like a visitor here. It's not comfortable yet, but very attractive. The clothes in this world are Mediums! Size 14 jeans! I haven't worn those in 15+ years. The food here is very good and not as sweet. And despite my smaller appetite, I cannot seem to order just the right size meal at a restaurant. I keep over-ordering.
I just had my wedding ring resized and it looks tiny, but the reality is it's still one size larger than on our wedding day all those years ago. Truly, it looks like something I'd buy for my daughter. How can it be for me? But, it is.
My husband is excited, he's gaining back the woman he wed. My coworkers keep commenting on "how thin your face looks," they never knew me when... It's good, but strange, the attention is wanted and not so wanted all at the same time. But the best, the absolute best this week was when Songbird went to give me a hug and said, "my arms can go all the way around you, Mommie! Look, I can grab my wrists!" That was a fabulous welcome into this new world.
