Miss Tickle

Skaterina got out her down coat

it is red

that is not a given

not everything she chooses is red

she had winter coats in Vermont that were not at all red !

so there

the red down coat now fits better

two years ago when she got it it felt a little snug

now fits perfectly

same tricky zipper

since Mom and Dad are away she had to go to the neighbors

to get her zipper zapped

after that a brisk walk

we await "the consolation of first snow"

Skaterina wants to wear the red down coat if she chooses Hyperthermia
