Default Bye Bye Big and Tall! Yippee!

Last night I went to our local department store in order to pick up a shirt that I need for our annual meeting, since my current shirts (with all the weight loss) now look more like tents rather than shirts! LOL So, I went to the big and tall department as I have for the past couple of decades, but now I coulnd't find anything that fit! I had to go to the regular mens section. Yippee, I am no longer in the PLUS sizes!!! Just one more little morale booster!
