When Life Is Like an Episode of What Not To Wear!

Last night, after dinner, I decided to set out on Mission; Buy New Fabulous Jacket. I arrived at the mall still unsure that I could/should spend $80 on said jacket. So I hop into a couple stores looking at clothes- some pretty- some ugly. I try on a couple things and realize that at my house, in the basement, packed into several boxes, I have all the things I had just been trying on. In sizes 10, 12, and 14. So really my wardrobe problem is that I just need to get rid of some of the fat on my body so I can wear these clothes again!!!

So I set off to the store to accomplish my mission. A couple other things catch my eye so I decide to try them on......and yes I do already own them in a size 12! I'm in the dressing room and it hits me. I look like crap! A- My hair is pulled into a horrendous ponytail! B- I have a large zit forming on my chin! C- My jeans are really much too tight (I blame it on the fact they just came out of the dryer but really they're just getting too small!) D- My shirt has a coffee stain on it from the morning (I never even realized that I spilled any coffee!) AND on one shoulder I have some of Baby's boogers and on the other is some of the dinner that didn't quite get into Baby's mouth, but instead made it's way onto my shirt!

I am a bad episode of What Not To Wear! There has got to be camera crews somewhere in the store filming me! I'm just waiting for someone to come up and tell me they are filming a documentary about people living in Pittsfield and their fashion choices. HA HA- I'm on to you Stacy and Clinton! Really this has to be the only reason my husband would allow me out of the house looking so horrible!

I quickly make my purchases and run out of the store! I never did see any camera crews so I'm probably just ultra paranoid and need some medication in nice pretty colors!

Luckily when I got home my favorite t-shirt (you know the kind- it has all sorts of holes in it from excessive wear and washing!) and my favorite pajama pants were waiting for me! ;)
