As the beautiful snow falls, it is accompanied by wet and cold. I appreciate the beauty but as a primarily skirt wearer...this poses a slight issue for my legs. I own many wonderful skirts but in the winter they expose my legs to the elements. I'm usually cold as it is, so this does not help things. In the summer it is fabulous.
So I've invested in tights. I have even branched out into patterned and colorful tights. I'd take a picture of my legs to show you what I'm talking about, but I have a slight discomfort with posting that on the web...so I'll refrain.
It is not that I'm opposed to wearing pants and at times I do. But I just plain like wearing skirts. I'm a woman. I like to be feminine. I don't have a desire to try to be "one of the guys." For those women who do, that's your perogitive. But for me, God made me a woman and that is a role I'm happy to fulfill. Submissive, quiet (ok so I have a ways to go on that one), meek, care-taker of the home, all of it works for me.

I wore tights once. I forget why. I think I dressed up like an elf for my job in highschool. Worse experience ever. Not only that...I mean....a guy in tights. Ugh.
Tights really were made for women. Besides, you get to wear 2 shirts and a jacket to church. Dresses these days...not much help for keeping your body at a normal temperature.
well..... we COULD go back to the olden days when they wore layers uponm layers upon layers. so many, if fact, that they used to pass out from the heat (oh yeah and the fact that those silly corsets busted ribs and smashed the lungs) but hey, we'd be warm!! oh, and i must commend you on being willing to be meek and and submissive, somehting i definetly need to be working on!!
Meek and submissive...my desire to be...certainly not there yet. But thanks for the encouragement. Everytime I've taken advantage of God's grace, I have not regretted it.
