How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

This Is How I Roll

in Uncategorized on 05/24/10

I got through my dental appointment today.  Without a mental breakdown or a single tear!  Rewarded myself with some indulgent shopping.

Jumped for joy when I found the cutest shirt on sale.  Marked down from $80.00 to $25.99!  Woot woot!

When the 69 year old cashier was checking me out and congratulating me on the “beautiful blouse” I was buying I had a moment of self pity and thought “Oh Crap..I just bought myself an old lady shirt.” 

Was so distracted by the thought that I was ageing prematurely, that I momentarily forgot where I parked my car.

Drowned my sorrows in McDonald’s coffee and Muffins. 

Wrapping Up.  Dentists are still bad, 39 is not old, and carbs are good.

This is how I roll.

Mwah

      Shopping and carbs are the best post dentist medicine!

      And I’m sure the cashier says that to everyone.

      I think the word “blouse” is just a bad, old lady word! I’m certain it’s a nice shirt!

Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!
