Good for you!

And I like the saying on your top, which seems to be:
Life is not paint-by-numbers!

And not a good hair day! More interested in being out and about than washing my hair!![]()
But don't worry, as an adult I wouldn't take the kids to the park without putting on lipstick!![]()

I'm pretty sure that shirt was Esprit. Is that brand still around?

Hi canuk-gal!![]()
Please don't turn me in to the ruthless Brownie Battalion, but I had to google my badge!![]()
I was a Scottish Kelpie.
Here are the badges for the various Sixes/Circles.
Explanatory note for those not familiar with Brownies: Brownie groups were (are?) separated into units of six girls, each unit with their own badge).
For an added trip down memory lane, here are the rhymes for the various units.
Bwbachod - We're the Bwbachod from Wales, Filling farmers' milking pails.
Elf - This is what we do as Elves, Think of others, not ourselves.
Fairy - We're the Fairies glad and gay, helping others every day.
Ghillie Dhu - Ghillie Dhu it is our name, We guard the bairns and lead them home.
Gnome - Here you see the laughing Gnomes, Helping mother in our homes.
Imp - We're the ever-helpful Imps, Quick and quiet as any shrimps.
Kelpie - We're the little Scottish Kelpies, Smart and quick and ready helpers.
Leprechaun - We're the Irish Leprechaun, Guiding strangers when forlorn.
Little People - We, though known as Little People, Aim as high as any steeple.
Pixie - Look out, we're the jolly Pixies, Helping people when in fixes.
Sprite - Here we come, the sprightly Sprites, Brave and helpful like the knights.
Tylwyth Teg - We're from Wales, the Tylwyth Teg, Dance and work and never beg.
Canuk-gal, you're obviously in Canada like me.
Just wondering if there are Brownies in the US.
What about Explorers? I was also in Explorers.

He and his wife founded Esprit as well. They got out in '94. In 2012 all North American locations closed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Tompkins https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esprit_Holdings I remember when Esprit tote bags for school/dance class were cool. And Bennetton!
