Not very often I get two rainy days back to back, but when I pourd my coffee this morning I watched the rain come down hard. I also got a phone call from my dad saying he got stuck hauling water up to the hiefers... so my outfit to go recuse my dad is as follows. Stetson 4x hat, wrangler pearl snap shirt, Wyoming traders tan vest, Outback oilskin duster, Wrangler rigs jeans, and Boggs muck boots. I was able to pull my dad out with ease, and made it back to finish my coffee.

See the title. I know that darker colors suit me more than light ones in general, but I'm not sure if I should also strictly follow this guideline for a summer Panama hat. What do you guys think?

I’ve been getting myself a bit confused lately and it’s causing a bit of an internal identity crisis. The background is this: I’m 47 years old, turning 48 in a couple of months, and also due to finish my first university degree and graduate at the end of this year, and will be starting out fresh in a new career in nursing in 2027. I’ve always felt that I was a bit behind the 8 ball for a lot of things, felt like I wasn’t as mature, or as far along in life as my peers and that I wasn’t always kinda missing something. Anyway, throughout my studies I discovered something about myself, and last year was officially diagnosed with the neurodivergence ADHD. As I have been researching the condition, and relating it to my life and my experiences growing up, I have discovered that one of the traits of neurodivergence is that our emotional maturity develops a lot slower than neuro typical people, about one third slower in fact, which at my age puts my emotional age at around the early 30’s. What does that all have to do with style I hear you ask? Well, from the style research I’ve been doing, reading articles and watching yt vids etc, I’ve been trying to dress more my age, like a mature man pushing 50, but when I do I FEEL like I look like I’m dressing older than I am in my head (even though I’m probably not) and there seems to be a bit of a dissonance going on. Ironically, the clothes I’m wearing are probably equally suitable for a guy in his 30’s as well. If I dress a bit younger however, I feel like I LOOK like a try hard, and a bit like a department store mannequin, and it doesn’t always match the salt and pepper in my beard. So I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. It probably doesn’t help that I’ve yet to really land on my signature style anyway, plus I’ve put on a bit of weight recently from hours stagnating in front of the laptop which has given me a bit more of an unusual body shape. So I guess I’m just looking for a bit of advice from anyone who might understand what I’ve got going on, or if anyone has been through a similar situation.

Good morning everyone. I wanted to ask this and if it’s repeating something that’s already posted I apologize. Have any of you ever like looked into what colors seem to naturally work best for you or do you pretty much just go with what attracts you when you’re picking out styles, fabrics and colors? Obviously there’s an economic. Obviously there’s a economic approach to it and when you’re doing most of your shopping at Goodwill, you certainly have to take what you can but I am just curious as to how many of you approach purchasing Clothing from a color or shade aspect. Thank you in advance for all your help.

This might seem long but there is a valid point to this. So, as many of you know, I have been mentoring my grandson for some time. During this time he has gotten to the age that most teenagers are where they want to be like everyone else their age. So over the summer, my grandson wanted to go and spend time with some other relatives. While he was there, he noticed that they were always cleaning on a regular basis to the point where it was like every week they were cleaning several hours. And so my grandson asked why is it that when he was at our house they didn’t have to clean as much and the house was always neat and at the other realtor‘s house it seemed like the house stayed messy, but they were always cleaning. So I had to explain to him that there’s a difference in being organized and being unorganized. And that what we do at our house, we do a reset daily. And once a week we straighten up usually on Saturdays. I explained to him that what he was experiencing was that they would let everything pile up during the week which would cause them to have to spend the whole day cleaning the house. I explained to him that we do what it’s called a reset every evening which normally takes about 15 minutes to walk through the house and put everything back in this permanent place. This keeps the house clean and keep from having to do a massive cleaning at the end of the week. So now he understands the difference and being organized and resetting every day, as opposed to having to go back and clean everything and moving things from one place to another instead of putting it where it belongs, also straighten everything in the house at the end of the week, which takes hours. My grandson also realized that they spent more time trying to find things rather than knowing where things were because they never put things back and his permanent place. When you are organized and you do a reset it takes less time to put things back in his proper place to where you do not have to to spend excessive amount of time finding things, going back and having to re-clean and re-organize everything on a regular basis this goes for house, closet, garage, anything that required us to have time spent
