Time for a happy dance !
 Went to the store yesterday and was looking around at the "clearance" items. Found this dress ( I'm not one to wear dresses but.....  ) It was an XL I figured a black dress for $7.00 no big loss... I could always return it. I also picked up a XL tee shirt for a couple of dollars. Took them home and ....  ......They fit ! The arms in the dress were a little tight but they are 3/4 length so not for this 90 degree weather. Can you see me dancing ???? Happy Dance here ....
Had to tell someone....

HOw exciting! I know exactly how you feel. I went to buy a new tank top to wear to the SWELTERING red sox game yesterday and I fit into an XL! I actually purchased something in the regular sized area. NOT MENS or PLUS SIZED! I'm dancing with you girlfriend!

I was at TJMaxx the other day, and I saw these cool long denim skirts. I picked up a 12 because I thought I'd be able to wear it in the fall. WRONG! It fits now! Minor miracles!
