I am writing again because this afternoon I got really pissed walking around the lake by our house. There was fake eyelashes, 3 layers of perfume & loads of makeup. Just to walk around the lake. Really has Norwegian women gotten that vain when getting fresh air?

I realize I may have a name brand jacket that I wear when walking or hiking in the Winter but I don’t act like I am better than anyone on the trail. There was couples that took up the entire width of the trail, I was like missing a red runner are we. There was old Nasty woman that mocked the way I looked to her husband.

Really, you’re nearly 80 & that’s how you behave! Distgusting. I don’t wash my hair or pile on the perfume to walk or hike. I am going out in nature not to a bar & I am certaintly not trying to impress other men. I am married!

Vanity has a place & it’s not on the trail or on a Sunday promenade. I’ve never been vain, so I guess I missing the whole attitude that goes along with that. I have also never been impressed by money, living on the East coast.

I am not going to stop going outside just because some people where rude. I love hiking & being outside. I am also not going to start wearing my hair like everyone else, because I think self identity is stronger than that. I have always had my own style & for that I am grateful.

Till next time.

So, in the beginning of January I bought a pair of $100 jeans that fit me really well, they fit above the ankle they looked good on me. I got excited about the company even told friends how cool they where. WRONG.

You see I washed those jeans ONCE and they became Huge on me, & no longer fit me right. I took them back to the store & thought they would replace them for the pair that went WONK in the wash. Nope. They gave me a pair of jeans that was JUST as baggie as the once I had returned to the store.

They claimed that the jeans I picked up today where the same, they’re NOT, they’re too BIG & the sales rep told me I could roll them up. On the original pair of jeans they fit above the ankle & I even told them that. Totally unacceptable. They claimed they had measured them. I Highly doubt that.

I also really liked this company but telling all my friends what CRAP they truly are won’t be a problem. Customer service my ars.

Till next time.

So much for Winter for this year, the grass is even green outside still because it just hasn’t been cold enough. It’s sad really that there hasn’t been a real Winter this year. The average day time high is around 7.5C, which is way higher than normal. We had some ice in November but it didn’t last long. It’s the middle of January & it feels like October.

One day this week all it did was hail all day long. Not snow not rain but hail. The dog was not Happy & neither was I. They forecasters put snow in the forecast & then it turns out to be rain. Even up North where we first lived they have had a mild Winter.

As I sit here writing this, it’s fog & heavy clouds & some spit in the air. To me it doesn’t feel like Winter it feels like Seattle used to do. I am even thinking of wearing my Seattle sweater jacket on days it’s not raining because it’s just not cold out.

Next time someone doesn’t believe in global warming just show them the thermostat or talk about how 2 years ago we actually had Winter. Now, that’s sadly gone.
