What happened to manners?! (rhetorical question, sigh)
I want to thank everyone for their compliments on my outfit. I really had so much fun getting dressed! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️
Also, thank you all so much for your concern about Jack. It’s scary, but only in retrospect. I had to be matter-of-fact about it because I didn’t want to freak him out. What’s odd was that he started itching again last night too so I gave him more Benadryl (the amox must still be in his system) and that took care of it. Fortunately we have dinner plans tonight with his pediatrician (his wife is fun and she likes VCA and H and just ordered her first B) so I will ask him about that.
By the way I actually did have Benadryl in the house but it was children’s Benadryl and he has shot up to 5’8” and needed an adult dose. In a pinch I could have used the kids stuff -we always keep it around for my younger son and also my dog, who is allergic to bee stings - but he preferred not to have to drink 1/2 a bottle of it.

The trousers are great. I love the Row. I agree with nude if you can find a nude that looks good with your skin tone. If not then black. You can wear them with bare legs and low heels when it’s not too cold.
Speaking of nude hose I tried wolford individual 10. I had heard they were durable. One wear and I had a run. So I gave up on them. I can’t pay so much for something I wear once. I have a few other pairs from less expensive brands to try. I did find a semi opaque tight from wolford that is durable and worth the money. They are velvet deluxe 66. They are warm but with a hint of sheerness that is more flattering than an opaque tight on me.
I used to be more bothered when people noticed and commented on my designer stuff. I think I’m over that. I work my butt off so I don’t feel the slightest bit guilty any more. I think i am at the “I don’t give a @#*%” stage of life. I’m really enjoying it.
Thank you to everyone for their nice messages. I lost a very dear family member very unexpectedly a few weeks ago. So I have been dealing that that. It certainly makes one re-examine what is important in life. Out of a terrible situation i have rediscovered real blessings. I’m doing well and my best friend from my school days is here having fun with me this weekend.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
Glad to see you back here, PbP. I've been thinking of you, and I'm so sorry for your loss. It is wonderful that you are able to get support from and spend time with a dear old friend.
As for good tights and stockings, I cannot say enough positive things about Commando!
PbP I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dear family member. It does put everything into perspective again. I am so glad you have the support of your best friend and that you know how much your friends and family love you and support you during this painful time. Sending a hug to you if I could.
Random side note, are anyone else’s notifications on the TPF mobile app not working? Mine have refused to update since February 13 no matter how many times I refresh it or quit the app. I’m about to be traveling with no computer so this is frustrating!
I am very sorry to hear about your loss (I seem to be saying that a lot recently). I love that you have rediscovered blessings through tragedy. I'd like to follow your example.
My phone is so terrible, I can't tell if things are not working or it's just my phone again playing up.

We have been having rather cold weather for our part of the world. The nice part is that the heavy pieces can finally get worn. Certain designers think that everyone lives in a castle on the Rhine so everything they make is for Nanook of the North. It has been pretty dry here this winter so far, and that could change very soon, but today was a different kind of precipitation. We had light showers mixed with hail stones! I have recorded this for posterity and if you look closely at the chair cushion, you can see little white balls.
The only other important announcement that I have to make is that after shelling out two Dungeness crabs, I have decided that I will overpay in future and let someone else do all the work!
