coat predicted total disaster After all we are theltwo who once spent three days looking for pair of beige dress pants and ended up with blue jeans We also have the reputation for being unflinching and decisive all theway to the store then forgetting what we came for the minute we step in the door This time was different though We whisked briskly in and out of stores We ran the gamut of several imposing sales ladies bearing down on us like galleons in full sail We tried on and took off we hitched at sleeves we com pared lengths and discussed colour We even looked at leather and figured velour we shook our head over the wet look the split look and the look that closely resembled something that discarded in 1964 hate to admit it but began to wilt Then it happened We found just the right coat right colour right length right price We bought it sighed with relief Sally had enough money over to buy shoes With brave smile trailed behind her as she started the process all over again These were too high those too low these hcrc are just right til you look at the price tag Wrong colour wrong style wrong shape The wilting got worse found quiet corner between furry slippers and can vas sandals Sally kept looking closed my eyes and let the world drift by Ive found some said cheery voice next to me opened tentative eye Sally was beaming happily down at me Disbelief brought me instantly to my feet Buy them breathed then lets go and have lunch So weve done it Sally and we finally managed to go shopping and buy what we planned Riding on this wave of success we promised ourselves another trip to Toronto But hold it for while Sally just give your mother lit tle time Like about yearl Pollys Pointers DIiAR IOLLY Please help me get rust spots off of my creamcolored
