My eyes crossed just trying to read all the different ways to dress casually…according to Cathy anyway.
Hello Cathy friends and Happy Friday! lightenup Thanks for asking. My older daughter started this week and she really likes it so far. We go to orientation for the baby girl tomorrow (I should say later today) to meet the new principal and teacher. I’ll let you know how it goes.
While Cathy (as usual) is over-complicating this, I do remember the confusion in the 90’s over what “business casual” meant. These days, I hope we all realize that it is nice pants (khakis or similar) or a skirt if you prefer, and a nice top. Jackets or ties are not required, and definitely not a suit. I think business casual is more standard in the US, while in Spain suits are more standard.My only dislike is when people don’t use good judgement and take the “casual” part too far, and wear inappropriate clothing that belongs on a beach or a nightclub and then expect people to take them seriously while in a business setting..Hello Cathy friends! TGIF! Another long week, and probably no rest until Sunday.lindz.coop – Ouch! How’s your rib now? Better I hope! I’m glad you were able to salvage the vacation and it sounds really nice. :-)QuietStorm, I’m glad your older daughter is having a good start, and I hope baby girl is too! Sending you and your girls some good vibes from me and my girls!
O ….. M ….. G ….. I think my HEAD just exploded! :-(
Hi, rgcviper! Looks like we missed each other by just a few short minutes tonight! :-)
lindz.coop: Ouch! That must have really hurt. I’m glad you still had a nice vacation despite the injured rib and I hope you’re feeling a lot better these days! :-)
Hello and Happy Friday, fellow Cathy fans. Hope everyone hada really nice day today! :-)
Thanks for all the concern….my rib is doing ok now…they said it would be about 2 weeks and it’s just a little over that and I only feel a twinge of pain if I take a quick breath or move the wrong way. It was interesting to learn that it doesn’t matter if it’s broken, because there isn’t anything they can do anyway…they don’t tape or wrap it anymore…so no point bothering with xrays. And yes, the vacation worked out really well anyway. Quebec City will wait until next year.

And that’s another reason why Irving hates shopping (as do most men) — it’s too darn complicated!

This shouldn’t come as a surprise to him. She always overthinks things. He must be used to it by now.

Is it bad that I understood all of that??
