I stopped at Goody’s last Friday night… and found some great buys! My favorite top has a v neck and ties in the back, made of stretchy material and has some funky pattern on it… I purchased this at Goody’s last year. They had several tops made just like it only with different patterns… They were about $8. each.
I was standing at the register, and a very attractive younger lady cashier was scanning the items. She said, “I love these tops… they are so bright and colorful….” She wasn’t busy and they had about an hour til closing time. I commented, “Yes, I love them too. They make you look thin.” She responded, “You don’t need anything to make you look thin. You ARE thin!” I laughed. I didn’t mean to laugh, but it just seemed like an appropriate reaction to something when it shocks you. I already had my billfold out to use my Goody’s credit card, so I showed her my driver’s license and said, “This used to be me.” She could not believe it!
Sometimes I like shocking others just as much as I am shocked. There are still days when I cannot believe that I am inside this tiny frame. I wonder if I am going to wake up one day and realize that its all been a dream…
