There are times I just want to look in the MU section, or hair color section, or whatever...while I'm grocery shopping. The kids are usually pretty patient but I feel people watching me and I imagine they're thinking "what is she doing just staring at boxes of hair color??? Why doesn't she just get her pull-ups and Pop Tarts and get going?" LOL
Oh, and don't you hate it when you are looking at something, and your kids are in the shopping cart, not bothering a soul, and then some girl with a scowl comes by and keeps glaring at you b/c your cart is taking up so much space that she can't get close enough to see what she needs to see. Like she has more right to be there than you, even if you were there first!!
People need to realize you can't always get a babysitter, nor should you have to. This is the real world and we all need to live in it and get along, right!
I'm done!
Thanks guys for your opinions,Its nice to know I'm not nuts and not the only
one!
