Long Johns
I've Moved! The Boomer Chronicles has closed after 6 years, but you can keep up with me on my new blog at http://www.rheabecker.com
Today I rummaged around the house looking for the dreaded long johns. Wearing long johns signifies bitter cold. Today in Boston it’s in the 20s. My long johns are interesting because they still have a hole in the leg where a dog attacked me one day last year. Otherwise, I try never to think about long johns.

So inquiring minds wish to know: Are there short johns?

I’ll be needing to haul out my long johns when I go to Seattle in Jan. to help take care of my grandkids.

STRANGE! You’re looking for long johns and here in northern Colorado it supposed to get up in the 60s.
Almost NO SNOW here in the “front range” (east of the mountains) so far!

I have a set of merino long johns — top and bottom — from LL Bean. They are wonderful. I broke them out about a month ago; I freely admit to being always cold, and thank my stars for long johns every winter day.

I have great thermal tops and leggings from Uniqlo. They’re inexpensive come in great colors and patterns, and all kinds of styles. Not your grandma’s long johns!
