What to Wear...or not to Wear..on Christmas Vacation.
Well, I got what I asked for...then I got what I deserved! Wouldn't it be nice to have a pair of those cozy Roots sweatpants I thought! Like the ones I had already bought my boys...my husband..even my father! Oh ya...sure! Imagine my glee on Christmas morning when there they were. My very own pair. It wasn't until boxing day, that I decided to try them out.
Sure, they were cozy...even somewhat fashionable...for a dorm room! It was then, on boxing day that I made the fatal mistake. I thought I would drop my son off at his work and scoot right back home...in my sweats! My husband asked me to pop by the mailbox on the way back. I made some silly joke about what if I saw someone I know dressed like this! NO make up...hair in a pony tail...and SWEATS! Ha...what were the odds? Actually...pretty high...because I always run into someone when I look like that!
I arrived at the post office in the twilight. I saw an elderly fella just going back to his car. The coast was clear. "Get out of the car gingerly!" I told myself..."Get your mail and hop in again..undetected". Which is just what I did...almost. I was crouched at my lower level box and I heard tires right behind me pulling in. What were the odds it would be someone I knew? I would just keep my head low and turn and get in my car. Odds were high enough again! I stood up and looked right into the face of..yes...someone I knew...a client I had recently found a great house for. Actually it was great to see him!
Funny thing...He got a chuckle out of it as I recounted the story to him. Then...my husband got a really huge laugh at my expense! Guess everyone is smiling! That's good right? Hope you all had a great holiday!
