I'm going to see if Jillio knows anything about light boxes and their overall effect on the skin. After I hear back from her, I'll let you know what I find out.
Good. I am interested.

60 pounds is a lot. Your old coat won't keep you warm, it will let in cold air if so much too big.
No it won't mate as last years coat is a size 18 and I currently wear 7-8. The old coat would swallow me whole and still not do much good for warmth. I am considering getting this one from American Eagle as a birthday gift to myself:
Garment Details - American Eagle Outfitters Clicky on the link. The cost is quite expensive but several seasons of use and abuse it would pay for itself. Of course I would have to order this in XS or S for it to fit my small frame. I am considering to get it in black as that color matches well with nearly everything and I can get a nice pea coat for nicer occassions at Christmas.

I have a nice, warm genuine leather coat that I (believe it or not) purchased on eBay for $20 several years ago. At $20, it was a bargain I couldn't pass up. The coat is unbelievably warm and has a zippered leather hood that I can wear as well.
From now on, the only kind of coat I will purchase is leather since they are so warm and comfy.

what animal?
Im assuming cow, but if it was made in China it could be cat or dog, sadly.![]()
Since the leather on my coat is so thick, I'm guessing it's cow.
True.
Anyhow, I need something that able to take abuse, as I quite literally put my clothing through the ringer. I also don't like to fuss with dry cleaners as in m rural area we have no local dry cleaners, I would have to drive nearly an hour one way to have a garment cleaned.
leather isnt conducive to that. I would prefer something that I can throw in the wash once or twice a year and hang dry it on the stair rail. I also hate nylon puffers which are down filled that make you look like a colorful Michelin Man.![]()
Me too. I got my husband one on ebay cheap too, and it is nice thick leather. I am pretty certain it is labeled as cowhide.
Agreed wholeheartedly, Hear Again. Astounding bargains at Ebay!
Anyone know where Jake's postwhore list is?
