Describe Your Oldest T-Shirt

Mariana - Long gone - they wouldn't even fit on one boob now.

Love this picture and could you please get a picture of yourself sitting in that rock with a hat on. I think that would be fabulous.

Got rid of most of my old t shirts last time I cleaned the closet. I am wearing my oldest sweatshirt right now that's 17 years old.

All my tee shirts are holey. That's my story. Sad but true.

My two very most favorite tee shirts are a Peter Pan tee shirt from a play my brother was in and the other one had a couple of angels on it. I can still wear the Peter Pan tee shirt. Don't even know where the angels went. Perhaps someone borrowed it.

LOL. Doesn't take much to entertain you. Way to go.

A Guns'n'Roses T-Shirt

I have an 23 year old t-shirt that my dad got for running a marathon in gitmo. I also have a guess tank top from the same era. It doesn't fit anymore though:-(

I have one from Paul McCartney concert in 1989.

what a hoot! i just pulled out a nike tshirt, just do it, in an african theme - circa 1987. that might be my oldest that i am STILL wearing! haha

I have a few from concerts I saw in the late 80s, but that's about the oldest that have survived.

Mine is white with black lettering and I bought it out of rolling stone magazine in 1985 it says:

DAMM

Drunks Against Madd Mothers.

You dont know how many times I had to rescue that thing from the garbage...everyone tries to throw it away.

It's chilly up here...I'm wearing a sweatshirt from a fund-raising auction...that was in 1996. I do have some old, old T-shirts. I cleaned out a lot, but I bet the oldest left is 19 years old...it has the paint handprints of my middle daughter on it ... back when she was one-year-old!

Great photo, Mariana! I haven't worn T-shirts in years .. I'm much too, um ... "well-endowed" ... I look better in tailored shirts. I love to wear denim work shirts around the house ...

I remember a T-shirt I had in 1974 that promoted Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill wine, popular and cheap back then ... I had another one with gigantic red smoochy puckered lips ... weren't those the days?! I think I still have those T-shits packed away in a box in the attic ... wish they still fit!!!! Hah!

Marianne - I have tubs in my garage filled with stuff - I can't wait to start organizing stuff this spring - it should be fun - I'll probably make pillows out of my good ones. I can carry them over to Isabel and enjoy them there - ! Tailored shirts don't fit me - the buttons pop open.

Ellie - awww that's a sweet one - amazing how quickly time flies by huh!

Lori - oh dear, that's funny - more later. Salud

LOL. You've got your money's worth out of that one.

A tee-shirt with INNOCENT BYSTANDER written on it........its always good for a laugh.

Mariana, you look so cute in your t-shirt. I have some many t-shirts with holes, but I can’t give them up. I just can’t. I have a t-shirt with Binky the Alaskan Polar Bear that attack a woman at the zoo. There was a picture of him with the woman’s shoe in his mouth. Don’t worry she lived…as for the frat boys who tried to tease Binky they didn’t fair so well…one word, castrate.

I have a T shrit that is way too small for me, but I cant throw it away either. It has a picture of an angel on it, that is faded real bad. It must be 20 years old (when I was a LOT thiner LOL)

I am on the horizon of a famous “Sign Post” in the road trip called “Married Life”. You see, I KNOW I had a tee shirt, all tattered and torn, on the bottom of the “Used only if Washing Machine was broken” pile. I just can’t find it is all! I’m equally sure my wife would not throw it away without consulting me first……….would she?
Screaming from the other room across the hall to be heard over the TV set,….. “Honey? What ever happened to……….” Ahhh, It’s not the destination one looks forward to on the journey, It’s the path taken that one decides to travel down that sprinkles ones memories with smiles. AMEN

Far out man! Why is it dry, not wet. I mean your by some water. No I'm not thinking about wet T-Shirt contests, should you ask?

Sistahs, look - a man is on board - yes indeed a man - well, Paul, I absolutely love your post and know exactly what you're talking about - I think my husband can relate to your wife pretty well - lol...Well, I found out that two bags of my good clothes got sent to the dump back in 93 and I'm still pissed off so I can relate...yea it's the journey alright and if it happens again, his ass will be going through every shred of junk at the dump trying to find my glad rags...lol...thank you Paul. Salud

William - oh my another man - girls, two men are visiting here but one wants a wet t-shirt contest - uh huh - hahahaha - ok William write us a poem about it ok!? Salud

I have a T-shirt that has a gazillion holes in it. One time I forgot I had it on when some guests came over with my mom. By their look, if I had claimed poverty, they would have probably given me a couple bucks.

Oh! Those aren't buttons, but perspective

I kept the t-shirt I wore to the hospital the morning of my gastric bypass. Car seats? You could cover the whole car with that thing. I kept it just to remind me of what it used to be like.

One day my collegiate baseball coach was cleaning out old baseball uniforms and said that we could have anything in the box that we wanted. No one want any of the stuff because they dated back to the 1950s. This stuff was 20 years old at that time. I chose two wool jerseys circa 1958. I will wear them once a year in the spring, usually when I come off of my 40 day Fast at Lent.

I don't have an oldest one. I always either throw my away or give to someone or goodwill and then replenish the supply. All I wear these days are men's t-shirts and black, or navy, occasionally beige or green stretch pull on pants with pockets. I keep my cell phone in one pocket and the key to my cat cottage in the other. I love this outfit! I have never been more comfortable in my life. As a child I had to wear dresses all the time, and many times these were very stiff material and might have even been starched. I had to wear the light pink or yellow dresses for Easter that were beautiful but always uncomfortable. I kept telling my mother these clothes "hurt" me. She would not listen. I had to wear what she said. I had no choice in what I wore each day of my life until I was a very older child. I can't remember exactly when, even as a teenager, my mother purchased the clothes without my consent or approval and placed them in my closet. I had choice from the closet but that was it. I was miserable as a child in the clothes she made me wear. I really felt like it was part of her abuse toward me. Anyway....as an adult and when I worked in offices, I had to dress however the rest of them dressed. Most of the time this was fairly casual, and finally I was able to try on clothes before I purchased them, but still because of all those uncomfortable things I was "made" to wear as a child, I would make bad choices and end up not being able to wear what I bought. Now today......I am the person I want to be at least in clothing, the rest of me I am still working on and solving. I have a few other clothes I wear out to the doctors and some for special occasions.

Let me get this straight. I am now in the process of cleaning out the garage. Within said garage is a garbage pail or 2, half a dozen black GIANT glad bags, 3 or 4...well you get the idea. The words of wisdom was , "Leave the wife’s stuff alone old man". Am I correct?

Was this the post you were referring to in your comment to my poem?

Most of my old t-shirts are long gone. Can't fit into them anymore. I will tell you about the t-shirt I'm wearing right now though. It's an aqua colored one and it reads, "All stressed out and no one to choke." I saw it one day and thought I need that shirt. It was a cheapo.

I have one tee shirt from the late 1970's from Hallmark that they pulled from the shelves the day I bought it. It was a Halloween novelty shirt with the insignia of 'Transylvania University' on the front. They had to take it off the market for 'copyright infringement'. They never got permission from the real Transylvania University in Pennsylvania to use the name. E pluribus bitem. I 'customized' it...cut off the sleeves with a steak knife and made a small slit down the front of the neck. I still wear it on occasion.

Tees have so much
to say
but is the owner listening(except you)
The tees can watch through the keyhole
of the wardrobe cubicle
that the attention of the owner is shifting.

First Term Blue

I have a 2 story T-shirt.
On the front it says "I eat only the best"
On the back is the name of a German restaurant in Chicago.
Story #1:
One time we were in Chicago and we stopped there at an off hour. As we approached the entrance I saw a sign with their hours posted and we were late. I had slipped the T shirt on and we walked in. I asked if it was too late to be served and the hostess said, "I eat only the best. Come on in!" We had a wonderful meal. She could have said "No!"
Story #2:
I was walking into a stock car race. A young woman who looked nice in her T shirt and was one of the reasons people think that bluejeans look sexy was walking toward me with this big grin on her face. As she brushed past me she said, "Follow me!" It was then that I realized that I was wearing that T shirt!
I hope Story #2 doesn't get this thread flagged.

In 1992, I took my kids on a vacation to Disney World. I believe it was at MGM Studios where I found my all time, favorite tee. Patterned into the weave of the fabric are Rhett and Scarlett, lost in the classic, passionate embrace.

Gone With the Wind is my all-time favorite movie. I wore that tee-shirt with everything, for many years. It finally started looking a little threadbare, so it was relegated to being a sleep shirt. Like all good tee-shirts should, it's stretched along with my body. It's my favorite thing to sleep in, besides Kevin's arms.

Love this thread!
I moved in September, and out went all the clothes that were either too big or too small...
So everything I have now was bought in the last couple of years or so...

I have a tshirt made after the '69 Woodstock Festival in Bethel NY by an artist in Woodstock, NY. It has a large local map on it with two big arrows. One says "You are here" (pointing at Woodstock on the map) and the other says "Festival was here" (pointing at Bethel, 60 miles away!) I wear it every mid-August as a reminder to all the lost people returning to "Woodstock" to relive the psychedelic experiences of their youth.

Mariana!

You're looking great...Isla Vista rocks (or did)!

Cheers,

Colonel Possum

I have a formerly navy tee which weathered hurricane flooding many, many years ago. (It was the only thing in a bottom drawer. It is naturally tie-dyed, with shades of pink and red throughout now, I guess from the sea water. It's very cool... and probably at least eighteen years old. Other than that, my oldest is a Counting Crows shirt, full of holes, from the late nineties.

Julie - what a great history - I want to see a picture of that one - tie dyed with sea water! Thanks. Salud

Colonel Possum - when this bank was burning, I was working in one! Thank you. Salud

Oh wow Richard - can you leave it to me in your will - or would you consider trading a cookbook for it? Thank you for your great comment - I want to see a picture! Salud

Awww Christina - well, hopefully,you'll build up your collection soon! Salud

Ina! Picture time my dear - put it on Ruth so that we can see what it still looks like - I have one old one from Venice Beach - circa 1980 that I wear to sleep in but it was sleeveless and like a long t-shirt dress! Salud

John Beck - hahahaha - this was a good one - I can imagine that this t-shirt got quite a bit of attention in its day - glad you had fun wearing it!!!! Don't worry all is well - no one noticed...lol...Salud

Poddar - that was remarkably creative - thank you so much for your lovely contribution to this post!

Rob, now that sounds like a collector's item - I would love to see a picture of it! Good for you - sounds like it suits you to a "T". Salud

Monica - love that saying - keep it as a souvenir always - make a pillow out of it - it's priceless...

William - yes, indeed and you did good !

Luke, 2005 - wasn't that only 4 years ago? Wow - well, none of mine are holey for some reason - just kind of faded!


Paul, you are correct - LEAVE THE WIFE'S STUFF ALONE!!! You're easy to train! lol. Salud

Connie - it's wonderful that you can now wear what you want! I always dictated what I should wear once I was old enough to figure things out - luckily, for me I had an aunt who made all of my clothes from pictures or designs she and I worked on...I still have some of those clothes - most of them - of course, I can't fit into anything now - so next picture of me will be thinner! Salud

Ok Michael - I want a picture of those jerseys on you! Sound neat!

Wow, Vicky - what a great souvenir to have - I'm glad that things are ok with you now. Salud

William ~~ wow, this was one heck of a poem - I got those buttons - lol...Good one thanks for coming back! Salud

Rick L. I remember that t-shirt!!! Don't think it was you wearing it though - good one - glad you still have it! Sorry about the others- I found a Little Feat one the other day.Salud

William - I doubt if you really cared that much about those holes - and yes, they're probably still talking about you...lol...

Thank you all so very much - this has been a fun thread and I've enjoyed each of these comments very much. If you post pictures of said t-shirts, please message me so I can view them! Salud

Mariana T., after Easter I will take a picture in them. I could not get into them now with the holiday fat and all.

I have so many old ones...I don't know which is the oldest

Now, Michael, we need to talk - you see how fat I am huh? Ok well, I am on a quest to drop about 15 pounds by June - right now, I'm 147 - I want to hit the bayous weighing 132 or less! Should we start a group??? Salud

De - the reason I noticed this one as it was the 20th anniversary of the burning of the Isla Vista Bank back in 1970! So, it really represents many years. SAlud

Marianne - those are pretty old!!

Jessie - I want to see a picture of that!!!

Kimberly, that sound really neat!!

Maureen - what a great keepsake - wow!!!


Guns and Roses, Donna - way to go - I love old concert t's myself - wish I could fit in them!


Lynn - life's happiness hangs around simple moments! I try to find them and sprinkle them with smiles! Salud

Teresa - you must have had some pretty old ones - amazing how long these t's last -must be the good cotton they use.

Sharon, Ok just for you, I'll take another picture of me sitting on that rock but there's many around!!!

Love yall - thanks bunches. Salud

Thanks!

I love old T-shirts once they're perfectly worn in. I have a bunch of old ones from concerts because I make it a point to buy one at every show I've ever been to (along with keeping the stub). My oldest though, is from my very first job when I was 14 (15 years ago). I kept it more for nostalgia than anything. I haven't actually worn it since I left the job! lol

You are welcomed, Sugar bee! Salud

Courtney, I wish I had done that - imagine all the concerts I've been to! (I'm 59)...I do have many of the old ones, albums, a few ticket stubs and other things but not every one...Good idea, keep some of that stuff - it will bring smiles in later years!!! Salud

Mariana T., yes start a group. I am embarrased to say how much I weigh, but I usually drop between 10-20 lbs each Lenten season.

Mariana, Looks like you should start a T-shirt museum site on Gather... "My Life in T-Shirts."

My favorite t was circa 1970. I was circa 12. It was a reconfigured stars and stripes. Blue chest and long blue sleeves with a star on the chest. The bottom of the shirt was red and white stripes. My love for it was a strange thing. I bought it in a head shop on the corner of Bronson and Sunset in LA. (We used to sneek into the back of theater a block or so away to see first runs of Harold and Maude, Clockwork Orange, and Brewster McCloud.) I thought the shirt made some sort of political statement, though at that age, I had no idea what a politic was. When I got rid of it, it was like shedding a revolting skin: 'I can't believe I ever wore that!'

Two other shirts that were amazing were shirts I silk-screened in art class, eighth grade. One was Leon Russell and Marc Benno from the cover of Asylum Choir II. It came out beautifully and I broke the press making many copies for people who had no idea who either of these men were. The other silk-screen I did that came out nicely if not as intricate and compelling as Russell/Benno was a head of Hendrix. This also created a brief flurry of demand.

I never bought concert shirts. If I had, I would have wanted the offbeat shows that were incredible, in part because the audiences were sparse... Tom Robinson Band, Graham Parker, John Lee Hooker. I don't recall there being shirts in the lobbies of those shows.

There was a long run of Sprinsteen shows to get me through my dating years but I never 'wore' Springsteen. (I designed but never printed a Springsteen shirt: It had a small image (think Izod alligator) of Bruce in full leap, one arm up ready to slam out a chord, and the quote in small print above it, "I ain't here on business baby, I'm only here for fun." Boy, that makes me want to hear Rosalita!)

Another t-shirt love were my Enterprise Fish Company t-shirts when I worked there as a cook, busboy, and kitchen manager ('77 - 82). It was my time to belong. I see people at work now wearing the company logos on their shirts. I do have a company baseball cap, but I'm not enough of a belonger to warrant the logo shirts.

Which is what it used to be about: belonging. Things have changed now. My kids wear mostly random stuff with no meaning, though Madi wears the Sex Pistols, Beatles, Blondie, The Clash, and many other classics. But the belonging, the making a statement, seems less now. I sift through the racks at Buffalo Exchange and see a hundred striking, meaningless images. (Not that Russell/Benno was _meaningful_.)

One shirt I would wear now: Flight of the Conchords. If you haven't see their HBO show... Maybe it's just taken me all these years to understand how to be a fan. And if I were to design a new shirt for any band ever on the planet, I think I'd like to try Miles Davis. You know the pose.

Sorry; I tried to make the above a clickable link, but it didn't work!

I wore this to a Halloween Party back in the '80's-"The More I Know Men the better I Like My Dog" (x I have cats, so I pinned a cat pic over the dog pic!)




Animal Glitter

I dont have any old t-shirts from back in the day as i have gained a considerable amount of weight lol
But i do have a tommy hillfiger jacket that i wore back in 1996 that i still have and i still fit it but don't wear it now my mom is the proud owner of the jacket :) for someone reason i just couldn't throw it out but i knew i would no longer wear it.it has a good home now (tears)

My oldest shirt that was originally mine and that I still wear (to work out and sleep in) is my "I had my party at the Skateplace" t-shirt from my 9th birthday at the local roller skating rink. I'm 25 now. It's so soft and stretchy after 16 years! My sisters and I have also really enjoyed wearing some of my mom's old concert t-shirts from the late 70s.

I have an I LOVE MY BOYFRIEND tee that I still wear to this day. I wore it when I started dating Adam, when I was 15. I still have it and here I am 19 and engaged to be married this August. Boy does time fly! :)

i have old t-shirts that i can not part with too. my wife likes to wear my old ones to bed.

My oldest is a pearl jam shirt my dad gave me that HE wore in high school. I wear it for pajamas, really. But my own personal old tshirt says Old Navy 1998 on it.

I have one from when my daughter was in preschool that has the name of the preschool on it. She gets really embarrassed when I wear it.

I have one that is about 8 yrs old that has been passed on down to my PJ drawer. It has a cat on the front with a Santa hat and says I've been REAL good....but I wear it year round.

A red t-shirt, 3X with a black Zenith lightning bolt advertising their long distance radios. Have had it for ages, a gift for ordering vacuum tubes from Antique Radio Supply. It used to be too small for me when I weighed over 350 lbs. Now it's a short moo moo, faded in some places, has holes and paint spots.

the oldest t-shirt I have is a concert t-shirt from the early 90's. Haven't worn it since the night of the concert and haven't washed it either (it's autographed).

the old sweatshirt I own and still wear is almost 14 years old.

My oldest T-shirt is not really all that old. It is from the 1988 Super Bowl. I still own my Air Force overcoat and cap. They were issued to me in 1958.

Nice photo.

David, you make me laugh - I still have my 8th grade graduation dress. It costs $13 from Wormser's Department store and that's the most I'd ever spent on a dress - guess it was money for turning 13. Bless my dad's heart. It was yellow and I treasure it! moth holes and all - size 3!!!
My dad kept his world war one uniform - I can't find it but have his campaign hat and other service related items - bullets - etc. Glad you kept your Air Force overcoat - must be a good one - does it still fit? 1988 Superbowl - well,I have a cap to match! Salud

JoAnn - who was the person who signed your 90's t-shirt? I have a few of those but I wear them anyway ! Bet that sweatshirt is comfie. I have to cut the wrist bands and neck bands out of tee shirts and sweat shirts. Salud

d.g. The tee shirt doesn't interest me now so much as the antique radio tubes - didn't know they could still be ordered as I have an old one here. Thanks! Glad you lost a little weight - Salud

Hi Jean, it sounds good and comfortable! I know how that is. Thank you. Salud

I am a T-Shirt addict. I have so many T-shirts that I have to pack most of them out of sight. I think the oldest one I have was part of my high school gymn uniform. I doubt it would fit now....

Linda, kids can be embarrassed by those things - but give her a few years and she'll want it back!
Samantha - Pearl Jam - oh send it to me - I know you love that one! Thanks. Enjoy your Old Navy 1998 - a whole ten years old!

Thank you Richard and I want to send folks up to your site to read your daughters poetry - it's quite different. Tell us about your old tee's too.

Ashley- love that story and make sure you let us know how the wedding goes - I think that's so sweet - childhood love - well all the best!

Ashlee - I am dying to see pictures of you in some of those 70's t-shirts that your mother got at concerts - wow! Also, love that you have a tee shirt since you were 9 - wow! post pictures and join my new group please.

Lu - I'm sure that jacket will be around for a long time - it may be yours again - don't worry!

Mari - I love that slogan - I have cats and dogs and I agree - lol...Thank you so much. Salud

Julie - thank you so much and it's now featured in my new group - Mariana T-Shirts Forever -lol...thanks again.

David P. Can you cut and past this wonderful comment and make it into a post and send to the new group - wow - I love your comments - and I want to read this one slowly - I think there's another book here!

Michael - I started the tee shirt group but haven't started the weight one - don't be embarrassed - we need numbers here!

David, I want tee shirt pictures my friend and did you join my new group? Ok I hope you do and I look forward to seeing everyone there. Salud

You cracked me up with the VW seat covers. My lil' truck is 25 years old now, and has layers of T-shirts on the bucket seats. I haven't seen them in a few years, because my wife bought me some real seat covers and they are hidden now.
I'd say the oldest shirt I have is really a tank top like shirt (jersey?) from being on my High School Track Team. I swiped it as a souvenir when graduating. How I ever fit in that is a mystery, LOL. I guess that makes it about 38+ years old...
Take care.
PS- I still have a stuffed animal from the day I was born too... ;-)

wow John S. I think I have a couple layers on the VW that the old man is supposed to restore - like 20 years ago - duh...glad your wife bought you some real seat covers lol...

Oh a high school track team jersey - wow - wish I would still have my p.e. uniforms - hey I graduated in 1967 - hahaha - we are about the same age huh???

awwww stuffed animal - awww do you sleep with it????? Salud

i am wearing mine right now it is a green bleach stained mess and it is so comfortable i love to wear it with my pj bottoms

Mariana, deary...you look so innocent and such a gorgeous, pretty lady..Each color is your color and it becomes more you, when you present any article in this form...adorable...That's T-shirt is a keeper and still is your friend...cos you love everyone...I remember the tie and die T-shirt, Maraina...great choices you had...

Buzzy - awww - bless you my dear friend - this means so much to me today - a glorious Sunday - I love you too and so glad that you are always adding happiness to everyone's life - it makes Gather a happy place to hang out! Thank you and again birthday's last forever - enjoy the heck out of being whatever age you are! Salud

Rainne. Thank you so much. I bet it's comfie! Salud

This isn't clothing, but I have a florescent lamp that I've used constantly since I received it in 1961. I've never had to replace the bulb though at times it has been left on all night. Imagine, 48 years and still shining bright!

If you are the queen of comfort then I am the princess. My oldest t-shirt would be an old harley shirt I found at a garage sale several years back. My dh has offered to replace the t-shirt with another harley t-shirt bought brand new, but he has no clue.
I also still have the school tshirt from my senior year of high school and that was 84, yepz I am that darn old.
I hate dress clothes/shoes. The only pairs of shoes I own are crocs, slippers, tennis shoes and work boots.
My only pants apparel is sweats, pj pants, and jeans. I think you get the idea here.

MY comp check still isn't here and I have raised 7 different kinds of Billy heck from one end of this nation to the other with no avail. No mail tomorrow, so it won't be before tuesday at least. They are making me so upset and there's nothing that I can do about this. Thanks as always for being a friend and for leaving comments.

My oldest t-shirt is one that I got from my oldest sister. She passed several years ago and I will not give it up.

It is a over-sized tie-dyed shirt. It actually has a few pin holes in it, but I love it! I am not sure how old it is , but I have had it for over 10 years and it was pretty worn when she gave it to me.

You all are talking about old clothes. I have my First Communion Dress. That dress was from 1963. Both of my daughters wore that dress for their First Communions. My mother told me that she paid, what was then, "A LOT OF MONEY" for that dress. It cost her $12.00. She bought it at Foley's in Houston.

Hmmmmm.... oldest t-shirt....oldest t-shirt.....I have one of my father's undershirts that I "adopted" as a nightshirt in 1985. Does that count?

hi Mariana... you look sooo great in your t-shirt... i'm glad you are enjoying life so much... you deserve all the best of everything... love and hugs... Salud...
i have plenty of old t-shirts that won't even fit over my head... hahaha...

this story is a little sad, but... my mother's brother, mark, was killed in a car accident when he was 29. i was 12 at the time and living with her other siblings in my grandparent's house. mark has been living in maine at the time, and when his belongings were sent home, i took one of his tshirts because it smelled like him and made me smile. that t-shirt has got to be from the early 70s and i still cherish it to this day.

and i love your shirt!

Mona, a beautiful story - sad yet the memories are a tribute to your uncle's love - I can see why you cherish it - thank you so much for telling us about this. Salud

Necee, thanks so much for your beautiful words - I love your enthusiasm for life and your giving spirit. I know about those tiny tee's as the one I put on my dog for my new group Icon was one I bought in Belize back in the late 70's - that's how small I was!!! Salud

Thanks Rick it was fun to play.

Gisela - it's good to have you back and yes, everything counts if you tell us about it!

Nancy - back then a $12.00 was plenty of money - for us for sure! Thanks for a sweet story. Salud

Nurse Nancy - I have bunches of those tie-dye jobs and the bleach makes them weaker than some so naturally they are a tad holey but so soft and comfie -yes, indeed, I know what you mean!!! Thanks bunches. Salud

Oh STephanie - I know that you are beautiful in all your casual clothes - I've seen you before at my Book Signing - you looked pretty good then and then at my house - you know I truly don't notice folks clothes too much - not when their eyes shine and they have a happy outlook as you do. I know how p.o.'d you are about your check. Glad your boss has helped you out - generous man that he is. I hope everything gets back to normal for you. Thanks for telling me about your old harley shirt - yes, he doesn't have a clue if he doesn't know how much soul that shirt has and meaning it has for you and plus the comfort! Thanks my friend, blessings on this special day. Salud
