I dropped Adam at nursery and then headed into city centre for coffee.

And then had my haircut.

And then I shopped. Well, I looked. I am looking for a new spring/summer/fall coat. A trench coat was recommended to me, very diplomatically, by a friend of mine whose face was a picture as she gazed at by ratty, dirty, blue coat. Hey! My mom gave me this coat!

In any case, she’s right. It’s time for a new one.

Only…I can’t find one. I tried on coat after coat after trench after rain after windbreak…the fitted ones were too fitted…the unstructured ones made me look like a lump. I suppose the ratty, dirty, blue coat makes me look a bit lump like but it’s already mine! And I didn’t pick it out or pay for it!

So I’m still looking.

I guess I could at least wash the ratty, dirty, blue coat and take dirty out of equation.

But what will I wear while it’s washing?!?!?!?!?!
