What is it with some men, particularly when they have to dress to go out? Some just don’t care. As long as it’s clean, it works

. The idea of dressing within the season means nothing. A bulky, tired winter sweater over light summer pants makes total sense, as does a linen shirt with wool pants. In their fashion book, it’s divine. What’s there to complain about, when you’re covered?Recently my husband donated half of his wardrobe. He rid himself of suits and any formal wear. Moving forward in his life, he will now be in either golf or sportswear.

One friend strategically readjusts a series of hangers in the closet when she knows that she and her husband are going out. She’s well aware he’s going to reach for whatever shirt he sees first. Another leaves an outfit ready at the end of her husband’s clothing rack. All the pieces ready to go as though, like a rabbit out of a hat, they just appeared and happen to work together.

These guys are our husbands and our friends. But sometimes, our prizes dress like we picked curtain No. 3 inOften, deciding on what to wear on a night out is akin to asking for directions. They won’t do it. They resist their partner’s guidance despite knowing we can be their personal stylists. My husband often has a great sense of style; but on occasion it eludes him and when it does, it eludes him big time. And when that happens, the ride to wherever we’re going can be long and silent.

I agree, you don't need a sweater in a tropical location

As a septuagenarian male I'm definitely in the dress to be comfortable club and to hell with what others think. I have a very low opinion of fashion.

Upon being on the receiving end of that statement i found it to be devaluing and belittling. Right up there with “ I got my haircut today” Replied with a snide “Doesn’t look like it” Good thing this article was written from the wife’s perspective and not the man’s

In other words, take off the silly mask as you all look ridiculous.

How one Montreal long-term care home managed to keep COVID-19 awayThe Pavillon Camille-Lefebvre long-term care home in southwest Montreal houses some of the patients most vulnerable to succumbing to a pandemic, including 18 who live on ventilators full time, but as COVID-19 swept through Montreal's nursing homes like a seemingly unstoppable force, the home achieved a rare feat: not a single positive case, much less any COVID-19 deaths. Dear idiots. You cannot keep a viral respiratory disease at bay. Other countries are now being hit with a SecondWave and they'll be hit by a ThirdWave and FourthWave. Lockdowns and restrictions only prolong the inevitable. Wake up! Good for them. Being proactive has saved lives. Wish the rest of the country would take this as a lesson PSW's actually washed their hands before touching a senior, then also afterwards? They learned to wear a mask too when interacting with immunocompromised residents? Amazing science that goes back to the middle ages.
