Brayon Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Time for this guy to disappear for a while again. Hope everyone is doing well, and that life is good for all of you. This is something I recently shared with @Backwoods Boy about characters in a story, I've been Beta Reading for him off and on. However, after the events of the past few days, here in the Tampa Bay Metro Area, it's taken on a new meaning for me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has Reader and has been to them. The other problem with them is they don't sell much casual stuff in them. And what they do isn't really what He wants. The place he orders from took his measurements and they find him clothes that fit properly. Here nothing seems to fit right. He gets his neck size, but the sleeves are wrong. Here a pair of jeans is nearly $100 .. he can get them for $25 to $50 USD and we buy enough for free shipping to Canada and they sort the duty as well. He gets better clothes that he likes to wear this way. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thorn Wilde Posted June 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2019 Hey, everybody. Man, you guys were busy last night, lol! Three pages to get through. We're home from our cabin trip. Poor Tesla was frantic, she's been alone all weekend except for when my brother stopped by yesterday to feed her. We're getting another kitten, so she doesn't have to be alone. (Did I mention that before? I forget and repeat myself...) She's a bit annoyed with us for being gone, but she'll forgive us. Got some editing to do today, but I'll be around. Have a good day, all! 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fae Briona Posted June 16, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2019 Raining -- again (but only rain this time). My brother sent me a pic earlier. Right after he went to bed last night a huge crash of thunder made him jump. Lightning had hit a house 2 doors down. House looks gutted but the family is ok. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know that feeling. I was tall and thin until about that age then I grew a couple more inches and started to fill out. I used to get my dress shirts made because of my shoulders and upper arms. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was really skinny when he shot up to 6’1” but he has filled out, so he matches his height more. He also refuses to eat any junk food now, so that’s probably helped. I’ve got the opposite problem being only 5’1”, so finding pants the right length is a bother. Oh, and I have short arm syndrome to boot, so a lot of times sleeves are too long - coats and shirts. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
