Even on a cold cold day. She must be a shopaholic.

I guess I should explain more while in a taxi in a traffic jam I watched this very old lady it took hr like a minute to go up one stair and I did not see it as the power of a shopaholic but more the powerful drive to survive

It is quite meaningful with your explanation. It does become quite hard for some older people to get around. And for them it is like climbing a mountain to get home...
