Today is a good day. Today is an epic step forward for my company. I can't wait to get going! I've had my AI tool create the write up in a bit of a different way, especially since I have been able to use it to generate outfits again. I like the way it summarizes the logic of the outfit.

As I’ve shared, I travel a Lt for my job and usually I’m finished my day around 3 pm leaving me with a lot of free time especially on a day like today that saw me see one customer then drive twoish hours and have my afternoon rescheduled until the morning. So I did what I normally do and stopped by the Dillards to take a look around. While there, it was dead, I saw the very nice and informative Charlie. I shared with her about my weight loss and asked her about how to measure , which she offered to do a proper measurement for me. We went on to discuss proper fit of suits, shirts, and pants. She spent the better part of an hour with me, again teh store was empty, and really taught me a lot. She shared the two pictures with me and I wanted to share with y'all as it shows about collars, cuffs, buttons, etc. Hope you learn something.
