I Might Be Addicted

Just for a minute, I want to laugh at the fact that I am actually embarrassed when the clerks at Target see us coming - because we are there a few mornings a week due to our preschool schedule. As you all know well, my girls and I frequent the local Target(s), Chickfila's, and parks on school mornings. I know, we are really exciting - try to contain yourself.

But yesterday, I almost kept my sunglasses on when we walked through the doors so they didn't know I was there...yet again. Like sunglasses are going to disguise me and my crew. Geez, good thing I don't work in undercover operations. I actually thought, "Maybe I should go to the Target south of town."

I know, I can't believe I'm admitting that. I think confessing this to you all takes our friendships to a new (funny) level - we're friends for the long haul now people. Come rain or shine...or Target rehab. Don't be afraid. :)

I thought I'd post this poem again, I wrote it over a year ago. Am I really the only one???

The morning is crazy,
And the babies are tired.
I’m needing some coffee,
And my 3yr olds are wired.

Off in the distance,
There is a small sign of hope.
That big Red bulls eye,
That always helps me cope.

The doors pull open,
And there’s a feeling of peace.
Target and Starbucks,
“Mommy, your favorite!” says Reese.

Your deals draw me in,
Like a new wide eyed pup.
And now there is the new Target brand,
The affordable, Up & Up.

I try to stay focused,
Stay true to my list.
But we all know the holiday candy aisle,
Can never be missed.

I cruise the end of the aisles,
Where the best deals are found,
“Perimeter shopping”,
I am red sticker bound.

So off to the checkout,
Where the cashiers know us well.
Do you love Target like we do?
Oh please, do tell!
