Yah, I'm talking to you. I don't mean just the average white T-shirt to work out in the yard, or the favorite vacation souvenir with Mickey on it, I'm talking about all those shirts/blouses that you wear day in and day out without even a thought as to the process of putting it on. OK, you say, she's gone wacky again on one of her tangents. But no, this is going somewhere. Really.
Since November 4th, I have not been able to wear a T-shirt, turtleneck, pull-over sweatshirt, or any shirt for that matter unless it zipped up or buttoned up, simply because my left arm wouldn't move any further north than parallel with my shoulder. Well, let me tell you, with lots of stretching, reaching, and Wii Fitting (I'm sure that's a word) I was able to put on a pull over top to wear to work today. Woo freaking Hoo! I was getting so tired of my 5 button up tops that I was wearing and my lame attempt of changing them up by adding a vest or jacket to the outfit. Yes, I'll still continue with my vest/jacket look for another year as I try to keep my lopsided chest in the incognito mode. Not sure it's working, but good grief is it weird to have parts that should be similar to the even bars (think gymnastic folks) but really look more like the uneven bars.
In less than a year, I'll have a new best friend in my plastic surgeon, and she'll make sure I never have to wear another vest again, unless of course I want to. In case you haven't figured it out, an open vest sticks out evenly in front and is my secret weapon to disguise my altered chest.
