"I too am in the 40+ crowd. Last year when I was thinking about how much I had enjoyed being in a kilt (it had been over 15 years), yes, Monarch of the Glen started me thinking about this, I told my wife about my desire to go 'kilted' again. We were dating the last time I had been in a kilt and she knew I had enjoyed it but given into the 'preasure' to stop wearing it from friend and family. I was 'young and dumb' then! Last year I decided to 'come back' into the kilted clan. One of the things I told her when I was showing her all the sports kilts, casual and traditional kilts was that this was MY midlife crisis! No red sports car, been there and did that when I was 25. No, 20 year old, too much to teach them! And I had brewed my own beer for 10 years and if I got down to 25 gals in the house I felt like I was 'running low'. So, she understood when I said I spent the first 45 years trying to fit into the 'normal mold' and I decided that the last 45 years (or more I hope) would be like Frankie...doing it my way!
As long as I take care of her she won't mind too much the kilts...except when I start TAKING CLOSET SPACE AWAY FROM HER for the kilts...she has told me I'll pay big time if I do that....
I did tell her this weekend about the new USAkilt I ordered last week from Jimmy...of course it was over a good dinner at our favorite restraunt after I got her alittle something...I THINK I finally got this thing figured out...now I just hope she doesn't go and change the rules on me!
