COUSINS AND UGLY UGLY CLOTHING

That title is a little misleading!  I just got a call from Cousin Dorothy!!  I was a wee bit worried at first.  Uncle Gordon, her dad, was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer a year and a half ago and I know he has been slowing down.  I was worried this might be not so great news but no, she and her mate will be here for dinner and the night tonight!!!  I am so excited.  I have missed Dorothy since moving from Victoria!  And Uncle Gordon is like the energizer bunny...he just keeps ticking!!!  He is still out and about every day, driving and visiting.  Amazing man!!!

So when I am finished this post I shall hop into Tank and head down to Safeway.  I have already made my list.  This truly is my fave thing to do.  First the thinking, then the list, then the shopping and then the cooking!  Shepherd's Pie tonight!

I just finished making plans for May long.  Anne and I are going to go to Cranbrook!!!  I booked us into the Super 8 for Fri. night, Sat and Sun. nights.  Her family has moved there and she would love to see where they are living, as would I.  I can't wait. Anne and I always have such a good time.  We can kill that eight hour trip no problem.  We will laugh and talk and eat the whole way!  

And instead of coming straight home, I booked us into a rustic cabin (but its down town so how rustic can it be) in Radium Hot Springs.  We are going to swim swim swim in the big hot pool!  And we are either going to go out for dinner or we are going to buy steaks and cook our own in the cabin.  We will maybe swim again the next day then head home.  What a great way to spend the holiday!

I received an email from the Fat Lady Store yesterday, the usual 'buy this crap' type.  I decided to actually take a look.  I was actually in the store yesterday but sometimes there is stuff online you can't get in the store.  But let me tell you why I was in that stupid store.

I had to go to the Scotia bank then the TD.  Now normally I park halfway between the two banks.  They aren't far apart.  I have actually considered parking at the Scotia then driving over to the TD.  But seriously, its more work getting in and out of the jeep than walking the fifty yards.

So yesterday I checked that damned stupid annoying health icon on my phone and I had not walked nearly enough steps.  So I parked way up by the fat lady store and walked to the banks and back.  The night before I parked way across the parking lot at Costco just to get those steps up.  Damn.  Tongue in a sore tooth I tell ya! So of course being parked right outside the store I went in and took a quick cruise about.  Nothing.

Anyway back to the fat lady email.  I went through the clothing in their catalogue and I was shocked and appalled at their clothes.  You know I shouldn't be.  Fat women have very little choice in their off the rack wardrobe, but jeez!  To prove my point I have included some of the stuff below.  I stole their pics!  Now you tell me...would you wear that crap? 

Anyhoo....gotta bounce....tons to do today!  TTYL

SERIOUSLY!  SHOW YOUR STOMACH?  LIKE WHO WANTS TO SEE YOUR STRETCH MARKED GUT!  AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS UGLY CRAP.  SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AND COULD LOOK AMAZING WITH THE RIGHT CLOTHES.  AND WHO WEARS SEE THROUGH SHORTY NYLONS WITH A SKIRT?!!  OMG!!!
