    Some of you must have gone to the same school I did!! Hated the medium blue gym suit! Hated the shower business at the end, too...then go to the next class in a hurry...not fun. At all. And remember the plastic sling type chairs that were horrid to sit in? Lots of good conversations on this train.

    We had the gym suits in middle school but high school they finally decided we just needed clothes to change into. Was told we had to wear white socks for gym or we would get blood poison from the dyes in the socks. They wear all colors now. Hated having swimming 1st period. Get dressed, do make-up and hair, go to school, have swimming and try to do it all again with 50 other girls so we could go to 2nd period. Or once I had it last period and would walk home with wet hair. finally got out of gym in jr & sr yrs. If you took enough business classes they let you out of gym and sr yr I had work study so no gym then either. So glad to be out of school.

    Finished my triangles, just waiting for Sat. Put some orange-cranberry danish in the club car.

    Here are my clue 1 and 2. Two was hard for me. I really didn't have very many medium lights.

    I'm still hunting for lights ..I like the layouts pictured...

    My gym suit was called a romper..the same blue shown here..I wore the same suit for 6 years!..I finally filled it out by the time graduation came around and we did have a pool..I was very active in sports & gymnastics and got letters for it...DH & DS were always touting about the sports they played and would say to me "what do you know about it"? until I took out my letters. they never asked again.. Gym was my favorite time of day.
