What my Confessions are All About

As women, our lives are full of expectations. Expectations come at us from everywhere. We are supposed to be the perfect wife, mother, friend, employee, etc, but somehow, despite our best efforts, we never make it to perfection. This blog is an attempt for me illustrate some of my imperfections, hang-ups, struggles, and hardships while still realizing that I'm only human. And that's okay.

Confession #5 -- I Wore my Workout Clothes to the Grocery Store


I would like to say that I'm "put together" every time I step out the door, but then I would be lying. And truthfully, "put together" for me is certainly not Paris Hilton's idea of put together, either. I'm happy if I have the chance to blow dry my hair straight or even put on a little mascara. Forget having a good haircut. I keep going to the cheap place and I regret it every time...but it's cheap and I'm poor.


But until I had kids, I was always a bit judgemental about people wearing work out clothes in places other than the gym. I wondered why they didn't have the self respect enough to put on some nicer clothes. But then the kids came along and now I'm pretty lucky to even put on the work out clothes. And sometimes I have to get some food from the grocery store and as luck would have it, I don't have time to change. Luckily, it's cold and I can use my coat to cover most of it up!!
