At least no one grabbed it to take it off for you. Jeesh......
My dh put on some new jeans and as we left the house I noticed the clear sixe strip running down his leg was still there. SO glad I saw it and pulled it off before we got too far.
Thanks for the giggles. Laughter is always good medicine....:)

My husband wore that same strip for an entire day at work, no one said a thing until he came in that afternoon and I noticed it as he walked by my sewing table and I turned to see him.;)

I think I need a wife! I'm sure if that were you he wouldn't even notice.

All that crawling around on the floor tuckered me out, and when I was done, I put the quilt away. Later that afternoon I did some shopping-- pharmacy, hardware store, farmer's market, grocery store. I met a quite a few people I know and had a visit with most of them. That night as I was getting ready for bed, I took off my jeans and tossed them on the bed. Right across the butt of my jeans was a crosswise piece of tape--left pointing arrow, 93 1/2", right pointing arrow. There's nothing like wearing a wide load sign!

No one said anything to you? That is just too funny!
