"For Others" is a decent shirt, usually unwrinkled, pants, and sandals. Dressing up means a nicer shirt. "For Me" is seasonal: most of the year it's a wrinkled tee shirt, baggy cotton jersey pants or shorts, and bare feet; in winter (that is, early autumn Vermont weather) it may include slippers, and an open flannel shirt over the tee.Sewa Yolemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05736250662604561083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-25465144734986692672008-12-16T11:20:00.000-05:002008-12-16T11:20:00.000-05:00Dona, thanks for finding me here.You may well see ...Dona, thanks for finding me here.<BR/>You may well see me in the outfit you describe someday.
