Blue

May 23, 2008

I’m not a blue person.  I have tried to like blue, but I don’t.  Well, I like denim.  I have several pairs of blue jeans and a couple of blue denim jackets, but shirts and blouses don’t work for me.  This morning, I put on a light blue cotton shirt to go walking.  I’ve had it for several years and it still looks new.  I had bought a few long sleeved cotton shirts to take to Florida when I was sent down for a week as a Subject Matter Expert.  It was February and I was suffering from “winter skin” that I needed to keep covered.  I had a very hard time finding anything and not much time to do it.  So I settled for the blue.  I tried to perk it up with one of my flamboyant pins.  I wound up going down there about four times helping to computerize training sessions.  I became known as “The Pin Lady” which is much better than “Boring Light Blue Shirt Lady”.  Every time I went  I took my gaudiest pins and no one seemed to notice anything else I was wearing.

Anyway—-my neighbor was out walking her dog at the same time we were.  She remarked at how much she liked my shirt.  I said something about giving to Goodwill or would she like it.  She said, “Yes. I’ll take it.”  So I think that I will do some cutting and sewing on it so that it will fit her better.
