It's already June. By now, my shorts-wearing days are generally here. Today, in fact, I had to go with regular jeans. It started out a little cool this morning. Yet, I try to wear shorts as many days of the summer as I can. This year, I encountered a bit of a problem in this regard.
All of last summer's shorts had a size 38" waist. This was a problem as I needed a belt to keep 'em up. I have not lost much weight but clearly, it'd be more comfortable wearing ones that were two inches smaller around.
There was an easy solution. As is sometimes the case, I wrapped up the six pairs from my closet and dropped them off at the Salvation Army Thrift Store on Columbia. After doing our fruit and vegetable shopping up at Langley Farm Market, I returned to the thrift shop on foot and bought five replacements.
I love using the thrift shop and admit to buying most pants and shirts there. It just feels greener to recycle clothing. Finding something interesting is never a problem there either.
