I was dozing on the couch and my phone rang. I didn't get to it in time and was woke up and got kind of irritated but anyway decided it was time to wake up anyway so got up and did what I had to do and there was a knock at my door. A young man asked if I was Jan and I said yes then he said my mom has something for you. I went out to the car and it was a friend of mine from church she had called me last week and mentioned she might stop by and give me some clothes she had outgrown as she had lapband surgery last year. I was excited and they pulled in next to my car. Up popped the trunk and her trunk was full of clothes. It was like Christmas in October I'm sure I got at least $200.00 worth of clothes if not more. I got levi's, lee's, and a bunch of t-shirts, skirts, sweatshirts, shirts. I even got 3 swimsuits. I was told that if I couldn't wear any of it to donate it to someone who could and that I wouldn't hurt her feelings if I didn't wear any of it. LaDonna is such a sweetheart.
