I lived in my overalls most of the time that the Carlls were here. I bring out the dresses for trips to town, but hanging out around the Chatette in my overalls is it. All of my old comfortable overalls are here.
Easing back in to this life, I found I needed to redefine the overalls that remained behind. So, my Carharts are now my working in the yard and garden overalls. My gifted pair from Niels and Bodil that you see hanging from the clothes line has become my "dress overalls". These are the ones I wore for our last supper together on the terrace that last night with the Carlls!
We're back in the groove at the Chatette and feeling home.
Happy Weekend Everyone!
Thanks, Niels-I'm glad I'm getting a wider range of overalls all over the world. It's nice to have choices no matter where I am. I'm really looking forward to breaking in the train engineer pair when I get back to St. Louis. It's a pretty day here today too- a little work, a little gardening, a little taking care of business, and now it may be time to curl up with a book. Miss you and Bodil-Love, Laury

I knew I'd hear from you with this post, Niels. It is just so much fun to love our overalls so much! I probably have one more post involving the two of you in my future, but I won't give it away. Looks like I'll be in StL for International Overalls Day this year, unless I do a workshop or something in NO around that time...who knows? I don't know if I told you, but Kat bought me a pair of engineer striped overalls. They are waiting for me in St. Louis and I can't wait to really get to wear them. I may have to take this hat home with me that I bought here because it would really look cute with those and the pink ones. Miss you and Bodil-Have a great weekend-Love, Laury and Sammie Cat

Of course I must comment this !:) I love the photos, especially that in the middle with the window, and I'm so glad you live in your overalls, yes, the Chatette is really your overalls home (suppose you at some point will live there full time, I'll wish it for you) and I'm so happy for the fact that the round house overalls is your dress overalls! here is the overalls I wore at the chatette my "only at home and local store" overalls (dissolving more and more :) and then I have the pair for family and friend visits and then a pair for business meetings :) overall greetings and happy weekend love Niels and Bodil
