We had a dress-down day yesterday. The kids could bring in $2 (or more) to support the effort to find a cure for Type One diabetes, and then have the privilege of dressing casual. I, of course, joined in the fun. I never finish wearing my entire tie collection each school year anyway, so I just don’t even try anymore.
On days like this I often wear long sleeves at school, because even though it’s casual day, I think long sleeves are a little more formal than short, and I like to be at least a little dressed up when I’m at school. I decided to wear a gray shirt I have that has long sleeves, and is made of soft, lightweight material. It also has sleeves that come down to cover half my hand, which I really like for some reason.
During the school day yesterday, right before class started, a kid said to me: “You wear that same shirt every dress down day.” And after remembering back to other dress down days, I think he’s right. Oops.
So in the event of another dress down day… Note to self: Don’t wear this shirt.
Would you please get that backsplash finished. It’s driving me crazy.
Oh, and nice shirt. It would be my favorite, too, if it was white. I like long sleeves, that cover my hands…but I like white. A lot.
I think you should embroider/iron-on the words, “This is not the same shirt” and wear it every single day.
I’m so glad I wasn’t in the office when you wrote that Lauren, because I really guffawed, and then I would be caught not working! (It’s a great idea, by the way!)
Hehe, more formal … I wondered why you were so dressed up yesterday, I assumed you forgot the 2 bucks … hey, I hear strapless is considered formal, for next time …
(btw: I think the kids are wrong on this one)
I really like what you guys are up too. Such clever work and reporting!
