    30 days

    Today marks 30 days in a kilt for me. I last wore pants on December 20. It sure gets normal-feeling fast. When I get up the question isn't pants or kilt, but which kilt. I need a couple more to get variety. Three woolies and a UK just aren't enough. Maybe I should strive for one kilt for each pair of pants I give to Goodwill.

    Oh, I'll keep some for such activities as weed whacking, ditch digging, and public meetings where the Gov't would prefer it was about the subject and not my clothing. But I'll be flying to Park City in my UK tomorrow and hope to keep out of pants (except for skiing) for the week I'm there.

    I'm not far behind you there. Last day I wore trousers was December 24th. It seems the natural thing to don a kilt in the morning, whether a quality wool kilt for going out somewhere or a cheap polycotton one for a day at my desk. No doubt the trousers will still get the occasional outing.

    Yesterday my company said absolutely no kilts at work. I took it to the very top. But no kilt for me at work. I will be serving on a State Commission Feb. 23rd and will be kilted! Will drive up to Nashville, Thursday with Family. Gerst Haus and Cheesecake Factory look out! While in Nashville, nothing but Kilts!

    Thumbs up

    GOOD DAY ALL. Frist congrads on being truly free for the last month. The only reason that I am not kilted all the time is pants still serve the purpose at work. The factory that I am at is some what clean but there are times that I do get into some crud, various paints, lubs, glues, and just plain dirt. I don't care what I get on any of my work pants but I do care what happens to any of my kilts (even the cheap SortsKilt, hey it was my first and there a soft spot in my heart for it) the pants are cheap jeans from WalMart. When out walking the dog, at the shops or enjoying a beer at local watering hole I am free. THANKS Wes

    The more people that I meet, the more that I like my dog.

    Good for you! I recently passed my 3 year mark. There's no feeling in the world like wearing a kilt!

    Some day i may be the same way. In the military there is no option. When I retire in 6.5 years and go into buisness for myself, tne boss will encourage kilts in the work place.
