Firecracker: Thank you for the kind words. Angie's post about columns of color inspired me.
slim cat: Thanks. That necklace was a lucky find and so useful.
Jenni NZ: Thank you. Downsizing is a long slow process isn't it. I finally got more serious about it this year. Your cardigan sounds lovely and what a bonus that baby likes it, too.
Runcarla: Thanks. We had a really fun stay in Yellowstone National Park.
Star: Thank you.
Stag: Thank you. I'm amused that dh had an opinion about this jacket but I predict he will come around and really like it after he sees me wearing it out. There's usually no dancing at classical concerts but we'll see what happens.
griffin: Thank you!! What great suggestions and I will try some of the ones I have the items mentioned. I just received these hikers, but they're real hikesr not fashion hikers so they may not work.
RobinF: Great! I've managed to accumulate a lot of jackets so I'm ready to wear them.
Joy: Thank you. I discovered the black Gap tee in a box of camping clothes and it looked brand new. I haven't been on a long camping trip for years because of covid, so I'd forgotten it. It's perfect for the weather we are having right now.
