Another misty moisty morning... Eventually it will warm up, (in another month or two) and I'll be whinging about the heat, but for now, every day is chill and grey; layers of clothing, and remembering a hat, are what keep a body relatively comfortable. Today's clothing: black knit top, light blue flowered dress, navy corduroy jumper with embroidered hem, stripey refashioned vest, light blue handknit baktus scarf, goretex hat.It is surprising how much difference smiling makes. I should remember this. Of course, I do smile quite a lot actually, but it is not necessarily the default. More so now than in years past though...
Am thinking about simple ways to improve my EDC*. Probably adding in a small first aid kit in something like an Altoids tin would be a big help. I often end up needing something like a splinter-tweezer, or a bandaid and something to put on a cut, (while out and about cleaning houses) and having my chosen self-care tools and supplies handy would be, well, rather handy! Might be a good topic to share with local pals and/or neighborly roundtable folks. After all, having a good first aid kit at home does not much help when one is not at home...
*EDC = Every Day Carry = the stuff that gets carried around in ones pocketses/pocketbook
Awesome outfit! You look set for anything. I finally realized I need to carry a basic first aid kit a few years back. I have sterile gauze (for cleaning wounds and bandaging them), some bandaids, and triple antibiotic in little tiny packs. The swiss army knife has the best tweezer, maybe you could find a replacement one to fit in the tin ? In fact I might do that too.
