Living Large…

January 23, 2012 By Gail 4 Comments


The gray Tee-shirt fabric slipped over my head and started complaining as it met my breasts. Undeterred, I continued pulling the shirt downwards until I wiggled completely in. Looking in the mirror I decided my new “Minnesota Gopher” shirt would do for the basketball game we were about to see. Nonetheless, I was frustrated that the shirt’s tag, in what I assume was a 24-point font, read size “L.” Geez, it was rather form-fitting to say the least. Since when did “L’s” start looking like “M’s?” I did a side view. Hmmm. What if I took a real breath instead of the little whiffy ones I was doing as I gazed in the mirror? Would my breasts burst through the seams like people through the door at a Black Friday sale? I turned and tried looking at my other side, which didn’t help. Did the short sleeves puff up my upper arm flesh? I wasn’t going for the Popeye look on this day. No way was I going to do the back view. Just as I was thinking I should change my shirt for one that was more stretchy, my husband wandered in the room. “Wow. You look great in that shirt. Is it new? Will you be my date for the game?” I decided breathing was overrated and kept my shirt on, so to speak. At least until after the game. It was the best part of my day.

A Message From Gail

Through my blog and website, I hope to share beauty, laughter, inspiration, aging & midlife lessons and advice on dealing with menopause. I will also devote time to integrative health and healing tips and news. I want feedback and questions because, while we may be sharing the journey, every woman has her own experience and her own story.

    I as well as my friends happened to be examining the excellent things on your web site then all of the sudden I had a horrible suspicion I never thanked the web blog owner for those techniques. My guys are actually consequently happy to read all of them and already have extremely been enjoying those things. I appreciate you for genuinely very accommodating and for making a choice on this kind of amazing issues most people are really desperate to be informed on. My honest apologies for not saying thanks to earlier.
