Unbelievable!!!!

I couldn't believe it!! I got out of the shower and was able to get the towel to fit all the way around me and have it long enough to tuck in and stay and actually cover up my privates!!!!
What a trip! It sure does alot for ones self image to see that it doesn't have to be a beach towel in order for it to fit all the way around yourself.

Yippee! Annie

Lol that is awesome. I remember awhile back thinking, why do they make these towels so damn small.

Congratulations!!! Keep up the good work.

I liked it when I no longer had to suck in while in the checkout line to get from the front of my cart to the back of the cart -- you know, squeezing between the cart and the candy shelves.

Thanks for all the support. Thats so nice of you all. I know the feeling of the shopping carts. Another one is trying to get out of the car when it's parked next to someone. I had days when I'd climb to the back of the mini van and use the sliding door cuz I couldn't open the door wide enough to get out or find a parking spot big enough for me to get out of anything but the sliding door. That was a drag. Annie
