Just wanted to quickly update you on my week-end.<\/p>\n
I know, I know.\u00a0 The week-end is outside of stay at home mom blog territory, but in this instance, I’m particularly proud of this data point so wanted to share…<\/p>\n
Sonny (My son.\u00a0 No, not actually named Sonny, just named Sonny HERE for the purposes of this blog and so as to protect his anonymity) and I went\u00a0to a Mother\/Son dance this week-end.\u00a0 Not just\u00a0any dance.\u00a0 A ho-down!<\/p>\n
Being a stay at home mom and all, I had time last week to go to the fabric store, get a\u00a0$3.50 remnant of (crappy, constantly shedding) faux cowhide and make us\u00a0matching vests!\u00a0 Yes,\u00a0matching vests!!\u00a0\u00a0Super cute?\u00a0 (Or bordering on TMFFT* Crazy Town?!)<\/p>\n
Anyway…we both\u00a0wore black pants, jean shirts, red bandannas and\u00a0cowboy hats all culled from our closets and…….our matching vests!\u00a0 Oh – also – unbeknownst to me, Sonny\u00a0carried a\u00a0pair of handcuffs (?!), a toy gun, and\u00a0a sack of rocks(?!??!?!).\u00a0 Nothing says ho-down like a sack of rocks.\u00a0 Am I right?\u00a0 Or am I right?!<\/p>\n
I am proud to announce that…wait for it…wait for it…<\/p>\n
WE WON!\u00a0 There was a “best theme dressed” contest and we won.\u00a0 2-$25 gift cards.\u00a0 Best ROI of my life.\u00a0 $50 gain in exchange for an investment of $3.50 on a fabric remnant?\u00a0 Or should that be ROF?!<\/p>\n
Nicely done, stay at home mom!<\/p>\n
