The last reunion was two years ago. AND he forgot to pack a sport coat that time, too. But when we arrived in St. Louis -- I went shopping and bought him a beautiful navy blue sport coat at a thrift store. He looked great.
However -- fast forward. Two years later, we're headed to his Navy reunion again -- and John needs a sport coat.
Apparently -- in 2009, he left it hanging in the hotel room closet...
Remember that Mary was also in St. Louis that weekend? OF COURSE we had to go thrift store shopping...
You know Mary -- I just can't keep her out of those places...
AND -- this time -- we have a mission! To find a nice sport coat for John. Check. Steel blue. Pierre Cardin...perfect in every way. Silk and worsted wool...
$7.50.
Oh, yeah. I am the master.
Or, maybe -- just maybe -- John forgot his sport coat accidentally on purpose?? Knowing that having a real bonafide thrift store mission would simply MAKE MY DAY??
nah...he just hates wearing sport coats...
