Fianlly--a sewer. OKAY, ALL YOU BABY BOOMERS WHO DON'T SEW (and I mean stitching with thread)! How did you escape learning? My mom was a woman's libber before they actually got organized. But she is an excellent seamstress and taught her daughters. I made some of my clothes starting in 5th grade--yay Simplicity patterns and J.C. Penny's inexpensive fabrics. She hated cooking and baking but taught us that at the same age because a person should know. On the other hand, she did a lot of remodeling (with her own hands) of several houses. I got plenty of funny looks telling how my 60-yr-old mother chipped a tooth while using a crow bar to rip up an old floor. I also do remodeling as a hobby (plus, I'm too cheap to hire people to do something I can figure out.) She and I have both reupholstered a number of couches and chairs too. That's me ( figuratively).  This is not my figure either (literally).  Times have changed since I started in the do-it-yourself racket. No longer do hardware sales people assume I'm buying tools for my husband or that I don't know anything because of my gender. Hell, I love it when the plumbing sales person is sometimes a woman nowadays. Back on track. I didn't buy a T-shirt, but I'm thinking of it. I don't wear legible clothing much, but maybe I'll make an exception. Holst - does your mother have a long lost sister???? Your upbringing sounds so much like mine, there was no girl/boy stuff everyone learned how-to on everything. Maybe that was just growing up on an isolated farm, you had to be self-sufficient. From driving the tractor, to tending the animals, to cooking, to helping make an elaborate beaded wedding dress for my sister. No long lost sister. And no farms either. I do love self-sufficiency. |

I'm still looking for the source or video of the Roger/Adam hug at one of the concert finale's (have viewed almost every concert ending... nada  )and noticed in this video at 8:44/45 Roger tweaks Adam in the side when they are coming up from the bow. Adam must be ticklish.  Thought it was cute   Love the whole Sweet Six !!!  youtu.be/94oKYMUihfs |

I learned to sew, knit, corchet, embordier, and cook from my Mom, & some from her Mom, when I was in upper Elementary School. Sewed my first solo outfit for the 6th grade graduation trip to Six Flags. I loved those things. But my first love was always MATH!!! And there are lots of ways to use math in those other hobbies. Only have 1 egg? I could take an recipie and compute the amount of ingredients to use to resize the recipie for 1 egg, all in my head while mixing ingredients. WOW, I never even thought of resizing a recipe - I look for a substitute for an egg or look for an egg-less variety of what I want to bake. Actually, my experience would go something like this: start adding the ingredients, discover I don't have an egg, add some chicken broth and mix it all up, pour it over kibble, and feed it to the dogs.
Math like music is a language all it's own.
