    I did some sewing and ended up with two skirts. The "nice" one hangs just below my knees. The other is a mini and hangs just below my crotch - a bit drafty. So, naturally, I wore the mini yesterday...along with a ginchy pair of tights. I don't think "ginchy" has a meaning anymore. "Over the top" or "Way out" or some expression giving the feeling I had about wearing those tights. They're patterned -diamond shape in all colors...neat (as we used to say). I'm getting pretty good at the sewing machine. I can add that to my resume - chauffer, cook, laundress, house keeper, grocery shopper and now seamstress. I'm honing my skills. My wife says she's not going to trade me in for a newer model. That's nice. I feel needed. To explain to anyone silly enough to read my ramblings....I'm (sort of)retired. My wife still teaches but she has macular degeneration - she can't drive. So I took over the role of "chief cook and bottle washer." It's an experience and you're learning every day. 

    Got to go check on the wash. Bye for now.
