Today, I actually felt like I was living in the Twilight Zone. If I just stayed off of social media and lived in the mountains I think I would be so much happier…but alas…I own a business and without social media…you are dead. So, when I answer questions or check on things I get sucked in.
Today, one of the prominent people that I follow and has a big huge booming business…went to pick her kids up in a unicorn costume…and girls…I can totally relate.
I don’t know how many times I’ve wanted to go shopping in my blowup unicorn costume…and I have one that I was supposed to wear at an actual function….
The thing is, I’m not sure that if I actually wore it that anyone would notice….I mean, I think everyone would keep on shopping and say…”yep, it’s 2020.”
I feel like we all have this dazed look on our faces…where we get out of the car with all the things…and clean off all the things…constantly…and try to follow the arrows…and then we all say “screw it, I forgot something three aisles back and I’m NOT following the dang arrows.” I’m happy to say that Sams finally got rid of them…we all basically quit paying attention.
I get overly joyous if I find Clorox wipes…and feel that I’ve hit the jackpot. I actually secretly hide these wipes under other things because I’m scared I will cause a riot and others will try to take them out of my cart…wipes? I said wipes.🤦🏼♀️
Not a lot of lipstick wearing going on I have to say…I think we was women are somewhat enjoying less makeup…
The new Phrase for being late…orders not coming in, something is unavailable….Covid. Car won’t start? Covid. Can’t understand math? Covid. Have allergies? Admit it…you go check your temperature every time and say to yourself…Covid…it finally got me.
The beautiful part of this whole thing…is I realize that I am NOT insane. I hear women way they run a business and homeschool and do all the things and they feel like they are going crazy…and can I just say….🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. Thank you sooooo much! I used to feel like such a loser because I felt like I was losing my mind…and finally….I have people that “get” me. I realize none of you asked for this by choice…but hopefully you now get how hard it is to homeschool…and no this is not normal…even homeschooling gets a break…we call it co op…and we are missing it horribly!!!!!
I think right now I’m more grateful then ever for the distraction of the holidays….I think we will be seeing lots of parents dressing as unicorns…and who could blame us?
Embrace your inner unicorn…or whatever makes you smile right now!
