...to fit new smart meters to what I thought was going to be just the gas but turned out to be both gas and electric. Both meters are in the garage and I needed to tidy up a bit to make space for the engineer to work. While I was doing so I noticed on the floor what I thought at first was an old tool roll, the sort of thing you put chisels in. Picking it up I realised it was a waist shaper, one of two I'd put "somewhere safe" and then forgotten where that safe place was. In fact I can remember writing a post about being nervous that despite searching high and low through cupboards, wardrobes and under bed storage I couldn't for the life of me find them and was certain it'd be my SO who inadvertently stumbled across them.
So okay, there's one, the other should be close by and there in an old holdall sure enough was the second. Well that was a day made. Why I put them there goodness knows.
Shapers aren't as good as corsets for giving you that hourglass shape but for certain clothing items they do the trick and I'm glad to have them back in the wardrobe.
