Yep, with the chilly weather arriving it's time for the annual (horrendous) trip to the mall for jeans. For me, this is no easy task and the chore could last for weeks or months without coming home with a new pair. Apparently, I'm not alone... ;-)

I may just be investing in new sweats this year. LOL

Although, you know, good sweats can sometimes be as hard to find. At home right now I have the sweatpants that are too short and the ones that fit me around the waist but are really too tight through the thighs...sigh...
how difficult could it be to make a pair of pants that fits????
Oh well.

That about sums it up. I may never buy another pair of jeans. There are just too many variables-- waist size, hip size and shape, thigh circumference, waist length, swayback degree, leg length, etc etc etc. It's the one garment that should seriously be custom-tailored.
Ever resourceful, I've changed my style to consist mainly of skirts. So many fewer variables there-- just hip and waist, and sometimes length. Plus if you can't find good ones, you have some chance of actually being able to sew them yourself.

Very funny.
I have to tell a story about an acquaintance of mine who passed away a couple of years ago. I was playing music at her memorial service. The minister asked for people who wanted to to speak.
A former girlfriend got up and said "I don't know where you are, but wherever you are, I hope that you can find size 14 pants that won't cut you in half". For some odd reason, I can't forget that.
Dee.
