I had a good laugh out of the one about patching ALL the holes in a pair of jeans for her friend--I did that to for my grandson when he was home from the AF last year--he wanted just one more wear out of his favorite baggy jeans.Then I guess he nearly fainted when he got back to base and sorting out his civvies from uniforms.....He is due home for Christmas any day now--I wonder if he will ask me to mend any more jeans??????
