Exasperated!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need new jeans. I am desperate for new jeans. I currently have two pairs that are my going to town pants..and the rest, well they are my working in the yard, scrubbing the floor everyday britches.

Only having two going to town pants is not a big deal because I don't go that often. But they are looking like they need to go to the working in the yard pile. So what to do? Shop. Have I ever mentioned that I hate to shop? Does that make me abnormal as a woman? I like to shop for flowers for my yard. I like to shop for fabric. I hate to shop for clothes. It wears me out. But sometimes it is a chore that has to be taken on.

So the other day as DH was buying feed I shopped in our local farm store for jeans. Yes I know. Feed, fencing supplies, dog wormer and clothes. It can all be had in one store. I love it. One stop shopping I tell ya, it is better then a mall. Did I leave with a new pair of jeans? NO. I am bitter.

Here is the spill. I hate spandex. I lothe spandex. I don't know why it was invented and I think it is from hell.

I refuse to pay 65 dollars for a pair of pants..even if they are 100% cotton.

The ones that I liked that were on the sell table that were 100% cotton were all gone except for a size that only a very small women built like a 12 year old could wear.

I don't want rhinestones on my backside. I don't want to draw attention to that area of my body and at this point in life I am not into "bling". Especially when it is on my backside. Or across my bosoms I might add. Less is way more in my opinion. That is in decorating clothing...not less clothes which I could easily rant about that as well. I went to Wallie Friday and have decided to move to the Anarticia. They have to wear clothes there are they will freeze their parts off. That is all I am going to say about that.......right now anyway.

I do not want to wear a "lower rise" pair of pants. I have had 4 children. I need support even if apparently the fashion now days is a "muffin top", I would just as soon not go that route.

My DH comes over and says..."what about cowboy cuts"? (cowboy cuts are wranglers for all of you not in the know). I used to wear them with pride. We all did...but times change. Bodies change and not all change is good. I pointed this out to him..but like all men his age he just has a thing for cowboy cuts. And long hair but that is another post altogether.

So I come home and go online. More spandex. " A slimming fit with spandex", let me tell you a little story. They lie. All that spandex does is let lose all the stuff that 100% cotton holds in. It is not slimming, nor is it attractive. And they get bigger by the hour. By the end of the day especially in hot weather when you have done just a touch of sweating they bag in all the wrong places.

I am thinking overalls. They are cheap. They are 100% cotton. You have full coverage, and can bend over and sit down without the whole world seeing your fruit of the looms, or lack thereof
