It never fails...

Last year it was my boots.  This year it's my coat.  I went to zip up my parka this afternoon and the zipper slider broke.  (The zipper pull broke years ago - I have, much to [profile] childsplay7's chagrin, been using a paperclip for probably 3 years.  Before that I used a lucet cord until it broke.)  Why do my winter clothes always crap out on me right as the stores no longer have any winter stuff available?  I could have bought a new bikini, but not a coat.  Oh, and did I mention that the high today was 20?  Yeah, I definitely need a bikini right now...

Speaking of swimsuits, I did acquire a rasher suit for TRex - she always gets freezing cold in the pool.  I had intended to get one when I was at the gym today, but I realized when I fell up the stairs that my depth perception was not good enough for driving.  But when I was at Target this evening I found a rasher top with little shorts.  If we layer those over a regular suit, hopefully she'll stay warmer.

Speaking of shopping, there is a world of difference between going grocery shopping at 11 am with a two year old (and another grownup) and going shopping by yourself at 8 on a Friday night.  8 on Friday is downright peaceful.
