Mission Accomplished

Today's mission: hit the mall and buy pretty dresses and pretty bras/panties.

I started the morning off as usual.  Dragging myself out of bed at 6:30 to get the kiddos off to school.  As soon as I dropped them off, I crawled back into bed.

I woke with a start.  I had a feeling of dread, like I was supposed to be somewhere.  Oh yeah, work!  Nope, not today I told myself.  What a great feeling!

After battling with myself over whether to go to the mall or to the beach, I finally made a decision.  I need new dresses and undergarments.

So, I made it to the mall where I proceeded to try on every single summery dress in every single store.  I found two that I liked.  Which is probably a good thing considering if I had found more, I would have spent a fortune.

Then I went to Victoria's Secret.  I got measured and found out I've been wearing the wrong size bra for some time now.  Which is a relief!  Now I can actually buy bras that fit!  The woman was extremely friendly and helpful.  And the mirror in the changing room said "STRIP" which I found very amusing.  I wound up getting 2 very nice convertable bras (because I like to wear strapless dresses in the summertime) and 4 pairs of panties that are supposedly not supposed to show under your clothes.  We will see.

On my way home there were signs along the road that said "State Prisoners at Work."  Why do they put these signs up?  Is it to let people know that if they take one of the guys out, it is ok because they are hardened criminals?  Is it to humiliate the prisoners?  Is it to make the drivers scared that they are traveling amongst criminals?  I mean really?  Can't the signs just say "Men at Work" just like all of the other signs?

Oh yes!  I almost forgot to mention the highlight of my day!  I picked my boys up at the YMCA today.  My youngest was complaining that something was in his shoe and hurting his foot.  So, I had him hop into his seat in the car and I stripped off his shoe.  Then I saw that his sock was full of dirt and branches and stuff too, so I pulled it off and --- BAM!  There was this BRIGHT PINK foot staring at me!!  I screamed.  My son screamed.  And my other son standing, waiting to get in the car screamed.  It was a very funny moment.  You had to be there.
