I need a hiding place
I’m not a huge fan of clothes shopping. Sure, I do my share of shopping, but I tend to shop online or get things when I desperately need them (or happen to be at the mall on a lunch break.) It’s pretty casual for me on a normal basis. And about once or twice a year, I’m able to hit up the outlet malls and get all clothes shopping out of the way.
We had to go shopping tonight because we’re heading to the beach and I have one pair of shorts. I can’t tell you how much I detest shopping for maternity clothes. Especially online (though, I did find out that our Old Navy will take almost all online returns in store. We were in and out in less than 5 minutes.) It’s such a hassle. And expensive. I cringe every time I realize how much I’m having to spend on clothes that I can only wear for a few weeks months.
And this evening I caught a glimpse of myself in a full-length mirror (in one of the stores we stopped at.) I was not pleased. I wanted to be swallowed up by a hole in the floor – if only I could find that sinkhole in the mall….
Can I go into hiding for the next 20 weeks?
no you may not!
but i’ll say i hated shopping for shorts not pregnant. {{{hugs}}}}
No, you may not go into hiding. You don’t need to.
You are beautiful & the life inside you will have you glowing.
((hugs))
No hiding, Jaime!!! There is absolutely no reason for you to feel awkward. The Little McKee is just growin up so fast, that you will miss that bump when he’s here!! God made pregnant Mom’s pretty, so enjoy it! Stand up & be proud!!!! Love & hugs, Aunt Linda
