Hello Friends,
Today, for the 1st time ever, my LOBPI hand clasped a zipper thingy and pulled it ALL the way up on it's own!!!! I own only 1 jacket with a zipper precisely because I can't do clasps on my own jackets. All other have snaps or buttons all my life.

You are NEVER too old to do something new!!

HUGS all around,
Carolyn J

Very impressive. You'll need to wear that jacket more often to keep practicing. As my Dad used to tell us kids "Perservance pays".
