MISTER POSTMAN!!!!



Got a petite package today from Patagonia. MY FAnTABULOUS PARKA arrived and it fits perfectly and covers my a$$ as well as all my face except eyes. It was roasting hot here in the living room (note the beagle in the pic). YES, it was snowing yesterday morning so this thing arrived just in time. I got my Bears parka thanks to the missus in 1993, and it is still awesome, but will be used for shoveling snow and that sort of thing. I wear stuff forever. I figure that 20 years from now? I'll be in this black parka. Heck, I'll put it into my will NOW, for the next generation.
Emily my SIL sent this faboo 80s music video, and Gord the red sign up there, cause THERE goes the markets, eh? Down the tubes?

A very snazzy coat indeed. My husband has had the same coat for about 10 years. I myself like to buy multiple coats from the thriftstore - and then redonate them when I get tired of them.

Stay warm. Penny looks like she'd like to crawl in that coat with you.

You are living our coat reality.

This video makes me dizzy.

Nice jacket. No snow for us yet...
Keep calm and carry on...and hope that people still spend their money on pottery and art.

Love the coat. And love that sign from Gord!

THAT parka came in a "petite" package? Wow.

Susan, that sign was plastered all over London by the Ministry of Information in 1939.

Must be a blow-up parka!! I'm thinkin' I might need one like that if this winter is to be as snowy as last!
