    After today, kilted FAR more often!

    As I mentioned in the celebration section, I am having a career change. I will be working out of my home with weekly trips to Atlanta.
    A side benefit I realized was that I will be able to go kilted FAR more often. I will be closer to the "full-time" kilted, though I doubt I will ever cross that threshhold fully, as there are still some activities that are better done with legged garments.
    I might need some trews for when I'm not kilted!

    Now I NEED to finish at least 1 of the several "kilt jackets" I am retailoring! One is VERY close, while others may be OK left alone for temporary usage. Now, to find a tailor to create the kilt jackets I have in my head . . .

    Yes, one giant leap forward. Kilts will never become more common until kilt owners start wearing them more regularly.

    I gotta tell ya, I am envious. The idea of wearing a kilt most of the time--kind of like Matt Newsome--certainly appeals to me. That's one good reason for having one's own shop.

    Good go, MacWage.

    It's great having more choice for kilt wearing opportunities!

    I'm sure you will now have many more happy hours of being kilted MacWage!
