People Watching

I love to people watch - I was doing some people watching this morning while waiting for someone and noticed several things regarding dress styles for both men and women.

Mini skirts were great in the 60's/70's. I loved them with the "hot pants" and wore them; of course I was 105lbs and 5' 4" with fortunately good legs. Today I noticed that females who were probably close to 150 lbs wearing mini skirts which were shorter in the back due to the weight and it looked terrible. If the skirts were worn a little longer by the heavier female it would be fine. Also females who are a little bit "older" with "older" legs definitely should not where a mini skirt. I am of "mature" years with still good looking legs (I am told) and could wear a mini skirt but it is not the correct style for my years.

Now to the subject of the young men; pants with the crotch down to the knees I think are funny. I have watched and found that the young men tend to walk with rather a strange "gait", almost like females walking in a pencil slim skirt below the knees, known in the late 50's and early 60's as a "tight" skirt.

One thing that made my morning of people watching worth while was that almost every person walking past me and my dog Monte said "Good Morning" and some stopped to exchange a few other pleasant comments; this proves that there are still good manors in people of all ages.

Creating a blog

Creating my blog is still a work in progress. I am reasonably computer literate however to create a blog I am needing to learn another area of computer language. I am in my "mature" years and stubborn therefore I will not let it get the better of me.

I am self taught in my computer skills - excel/word and various other programes, therefore I feel I can conquer the art of "blogging".

Stay tuned for further musings. Maybe I will be discovered through my blog as "Julie" did in "Julie and Julia". Good movie.
