The Daily Writing prompt asks, “What are your two favorite things to wear?“.
Being a warm weather lover, the less I’m wearing the better. I love the feel of the sun on my skin. So, my answer would be gym shorts/sneakers or bathing suit/flip-flops.
But being I occasionally venture outside the property; I have a rack of favorite tee shirts to make myself more presentable. And if we are going more formal, I like a few Hawaiian button-down collared shirts that are nice and colorful.
My better half says I clean up nicely, but she is a much better judge of the good clothes. I don’t hate wearing something nice like a suit, but I’m just more comfortable in less.
Many years ago, I had a beautiful pinstriped suit that was my favorite. I outgrew it about 3 decades ago and held onto it for almost 2 but donated it thinking I’d never get back to that size. Low and behold here I sit wishing I’d kept it because there is a very good chance it would be close to fitting again.
A good friend took this shot of me about 15 years ago. No, the eye patch isn’t real. I was the designated pirate on this fishing adventure. And it appears I have an extra 30-40 pounds that I don’t have now. I still have that shirt but haven’t worn it in ages. I should go try it on and see if it hangs like a tent on me.
One of my best friends got us all special shirts for that trip signifying our fishing team and nicknames.
I wanted a photo to reflect a summer attitude. Being it’s only 27 degrees here I had to change the feeling. Photo by Captain Dan
