Mommy Day at Target

My hubby let’s me have a “mommy day” usually on a weekend since I stay home with the kids and don’t get much time to myself Monday-Friday.  Let me tell you, I don’t care how much you love your kids…you need at least some time away.  Usually my time away is taking the loooongest shower ever {until I run out of hot water}.

Anyways, so on my “mommy day” I decided to go to Target.  I decided to dress up.  Dress up meaning wearing jeans, having my hair down, and putting on makeup.  The moment my husband laid his eyes on me, he asked if I was going on a date.  Now that ladies and gentlemen is how you know you are dressed up!  I even wore my black high heeled boots that my husband keeps bugging me to wear out.  Of course, I wear them when I’m not with him…which is why he rolled his eyes when he saw me wearing them on my way out the door.

One other thing I get excited for these types of days is that I get to listen to music…with cuss words.  As I’m jammin in the car, I get to Target and what do I see?  Snow and ice throughout the BUSY parking lot.  No biggie if I had my snow boots on but remember when I said I had my high black boots on?  I could just picture in my head: falling on my butt as everyone tries to hold from laughing out loud.  Well, I wasn’t going to let that happen so the first thing I do after I get out of my car: GRAB A CART!  I’m a total genius.  There’s no way I’d be falling then!

Finally in the store!  I walk down every . single . aisle.  You know…because I can.  No kids getting antsy and no husband rushing me.  The home decor aisles get 3 walk throughs in case I miss something the 1st and 2nd time around.  As I walk through the store, I notice about 5 people staring at me.  Then it’s that awkward moment when you catch them looking at you and you both quickly look away pretending like you did not make eye contact.  After the 2nd person I noticed, I almost busted out my iPhone to click on the camera app to see if I had a booger hanging out of my nose or if I happen to have something on my hair or face!  I didn’t though because then someone passing would think I was doing a selfie!  After the 5th person, I gave up and just thought “maybe I look freakin good!”  HA!  I’m just playing.  I did come to realize though that when I’m just wearing yoga pants or sweatpants, I may not be walking with confidence…probably slouching actually.  I don’t want to look up at anyone.  I don’t want to be noticed.  When I put more effort in my looks, I have more confidence.  I wasn’t by any means strutting like I was a supermodel through the aisles, but I had better posture and looked UP at people.  I looked at people in the eyes.  It’s crazy what a difference it can be!

Well about 4 hours later, I finally left Target.  Not really sure where that 4 hours went because it seemed like I was only there for an hour!  I do want to point out that right when I got in my car, the first thing I did was look in the mirror.  Nope, no boogers hanging out my nose. 😉
