Went fishing yesterday but before I left I had a load of clothes I needed to run to the laundry for drying. My dryer broke. I get that done and head out. Came back and forgot all about the dried clothes in the Jeep. Today is suppose to be the big day around the house, start digging the garden, mow the yard, do the checking and some cleaning. So I work on the house a bit and start balancing the check book, only 5 months behind. Yikes! Got it done though.

So I hop in and hop out , dry off and start thinking about my mowing clothes. Oops, in the jeep. Now I have my jeans hanging up they're waist size 50. I don't like wearing those any more. It's like taking a mental step backwards. I currently wear loose fitting 48s.

So I think, say I have a bunch of summer shorts folded neatly in the drawer. Will they fit? So I head to the drawer to find the answer. I find a pair, they are 46. I look at them closely and the button is missing. Epic fail from yesteryear. On to the next pair. They have the price tag on them. That tells a story. Obviously another fail. I think I bought them 5 or 6 years ago in preparation for a trip to Pensacola, Florida.
