Santa, he’s not the way I remember him at the mall. I’ll never forget when I went to take my first child for a picture with Santa last year for his first Christmas. I kid you not the guy looked like a bum off the street. He was skinny with hardly any beard. Of course there was no line to sit on his lap and there was good reason for that. I took one look and said forget it, I’m going somewhere else. What was the mall thinking when they hired him. He looks nothing like Santa and no amount of padding would change that. I would love to know how many people actually took pictures with him. I wasn’t the only one that thought that way either. Many people were making comments at work about the Santa at that mall that year and everyone that got in on the conversation knew exactly where you were talking about. That’s how bad it was. I went to a mall that had a Santa that every kid could recognize and the parents for that matter. I went back this year and they had another great looking Santa. I heard that bum Santa wasn’t at the mall that we live close to, but I just went with what I knew would be worth my money. For me Santa for grown up is Global Escapes’ vacation plans!!

My Global Escapes vacation trip made me finally shut me up from bunch of complaint. We went to Minnesota. We loved it very much, especially Eden Prairie!!

I've never been a fashion trend setter. I've really never been what I consider to be in fashion. I am not the person who is constantly making some complaints about fashion. I just do what's right for me and never think about what's hip and the in thing to do today. I just think fad are often scams. I'm sure this has a lot to do with being a plus size gal and not having the option to be trendy. The fashion industry really doesn't think about us women that have more curves than what we know what to do with. It's all about being skinny and on the verge of death to fit into cloths of today. With that being said, I think I'll stick to having meat on my bones and not being able to fit into these skinny mini cloths. I'm not going to starve myself to death just to fit into some cloths. I mean what would you rather prefer happy and healthy or skinny and sickly looking? It's ashamed that the public accepts this type of attitude that is trusted upon us on a daily basis by the media. If it isn't movie industry it's the fashion industry showing the young people of today; you must weigh under a hundred pounds to be acceptable. What really cracks me up is how these individuals can flat out lie and say they don't have an eating disorder to look like that. The latest reason they blame for their malnutrition look is stress. If I was under that kind of stress, I would definitely make some changes in my life. It's not worth dieing for. I'd rather go to my vacation trips with global-escapes.net to go to see my internet friends in person. They live in Minnesota. They have been sending me bunch of pictures of where they live: Eden Prairie. Can't wait to go there!!
