    I’m with her. I’ve had a few jackets in my life that I HATED giving up. But when the seams are busted out, the wrist and waist bands are worn out and the elbows already through the second set of patches, sometimes you just have to give up. (drat, now I’m missing that one split-leather jacket AGAIN. Sigh.)

    Winter was great. My coat is great. I loved the snow. … But … Spring!

    Take heart, Kid, you’re not done with that coat yet.

    “TransApril” is right around the corner.

    Google Mary Chapin Carpenter This Shirt for four minutes of melodious memories.

    The feeling one gets when putting on a favored coat is like being hugged by one’s dearest. Always knows just the right way to fit. I have a McGregor jacket that I bought in the 1960’s that still hangs in my closet. Faded, zip-in liner sags, oil spots, but zipper still works. Still fits – mostly – but I liked it so much it just travels with me from move to move, like my favorite books, photos, and memories. It just feels good.

    I miss the many extra pockets. But it’s interesting what I find in them when I first need them again. After a very short Summer.

    The five stages of grief model (or the Kübler-Ross model) postulates that those experiencing grief go through a series of five emotions: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Although commonly referenced in popular culture, studies have not empirically demonstrated the existence of these stages, and the model is often considered to be outdated, inaccurate, and unhelpful in explaining the grieving process.

    Too soon to give it up in “that state up North.” Here in NE Ohio we have snow on the ground and predicted high today of 25°F.

    Cheer up. There will come a time when you won’t grow any taller. Then you can find the right coat.

    At first because there was a hyphen instead of a dash I thought she was going to do handsprings.

    My “good” parka may last forever, because global warming. The only time I wore it this past winter has been to shovel snow a couple of times and it was windy too.

    I have a Helly Hanson and aObermeyer coat I feel the same way about. At least I won’t outgrow them. It is strange to me how you can get so attached like that to something like a winter coat. But it is for real.

    If most of my female cousins and roughly a quarter of the girls I went to high school with are any indication, I’d say there’s a 50/50 chance she’s already reached her adult height and can keep wearing that jacket

    I went to Burlington Coat factory to get a new parka, but everything they had was covered with logos, so I went to the Foxhole PX and got a military parka. I still have it 20 years later.
