Maybe Ellen and company have left for Olney already and fought the terrible things that live there. Maybe they haven't. Millitime is a weird thing and best not looked at too closely if you don't want to end up permanently cross-eyed.
The important thing just now is that Ellen is in the Bar, and she's working on repairing all of her clothing that she's not currently wearing. Making things last was critically important to survival in Vault 101, and she sees no reason to give up that habit now. Her Vault suit, armored in places though it might be, has been torn in places and is in severe need of patching, and then she's got her armored overcoat to adjust, and then... okay, her boots are going to be a little more challenging but she can most definitely try to get them back in shape, given how much abuse they've taken.
She can also be distracted, so feel free to stop by and say hello.
