And don't get me started on shoe sizing.
I'm staying home today.

I feel for you! My husband's family has a bunch of very petite women, as was my maternal grandmother, so I know what you mean. We beanstalks have the opposite problem--all of our pants are 'cropped,' whether we want them or not. Ditto on the shoe sizes; I wish people would just stick to the damned standard lasts, but, OH NO, can't do THAT, either.

Ah-hah. I'll look into those--thanks for the tip. Loose and comfortable are practically my middle name(s). ;-) Thanks!
