This comment is a little slow coming, however, I had to add my thoughts!! In the Summer of ’04 when I was working at Don’s Fleet with the ‘rents, I was always cold and complaining. So one day, my mom offered me this old sweater/cardigan of hers to wear, most likely thinking I wouldn’t want to wear it but that it would shut me up!! Little did she know, I LOVED that sweater. One of the last times I went back home to visit, I took the sweater (which was still in her office at the store) back to Des Moines with me. I wear it every chance I get and love telling people it was my mom’s from when she was around my age !
