the grandpa in me

it’s cold out. seasonal depression has me oscillating between general grumpiness and all-consuming sadness. it’s a struggle for me to do anything as of late, let alone get dressed and leave the house. but i’m trying. i’ve been reaching for my cardigans a lot. while i do have other pieces of outerwear, i get a lot of joy from doing my best mr. rogers impression. he was a good dude, mr. rogers. but i digress. these days i like oversized looks to appear tailored (or as close as i can get). my boyfriend has these trousers he never wears that once i rolled up the waistband and allowed them to dangle on my hips, the hem fell nicely on my sneakers. i felt at ease in this look; one would even say … handsome. i love the winter and dressing for it. i just miss the sunshine and living my life in it.
