Thursday Thought Part II

Like my shoulders.

Just like I like Roy Williams, WR for the Dallas Cowboys, and his arms...I digress.

See, I stared at myself ,in the mirror, as I wore my sundress today. Shoulders exposed. I liked what I saw. ALOT. Way back in the long ago day, I'd never wear anything that showed shoulders or my arms. Too flabby--too something I reckoned. I'd wear short sleeves--but never >gasp!<>

A few years ago, a Big Girl I worked with regularly donned a sleevless shirt. I couldn't believe it! This for all the world to see--especially this particular night, because she was (and is) a stand up comedian. And about to head on stage. I asked her how could she expose her arms like that? Big Girl looked at me like I'd lost my mind. Her response, "Baby, I do not care. And I look good!"

The next day, I ventured out in colorful, sleeveless top. A bit hesitant. Yet comfort eased through me and admitted to myself, I liked what I saw. Sleeveless was hear to stay!

Back to Roy E. Williams and those arms-because tonight I'll be glued to my TV tonight. It is the first Dallas Cowboy 2009 pre-season game and Roy needs to catch a pass or two. Will quiet some of the critics. Not quite the real season--but it is close-you can hear the roar of the crowd...

In the meantime, show some shoulder. Does a body good.
