I believe in dressing for your environment. For instance, if you are going to a black tie event - you wear a tux or gown; or if going to a barn raising - you wear jeans and boots. Today was no different so I dressed for my environment. Blue crocs paired with a fuzzy purple socks, blue jeans, slightly dingy white shirt with a black sweater. Hair pulled back in a bun, no makeup, and used my sleeve to brush my teeth right before I went in (oh, don't hate - you know you have down it before). Grabbed my cart, wiped down the handle for germs (didn't want to fit in that much) and ventured in. You probably have guessed by now where I went, but for those of you still struggling - I went to Wal-Mart.
And all along I am hoping that I don't see anyone that I know and it NEVER, EVER fails - within three minutes I see a friend - Christi Callan Adams - who compared to me was dressed for tea. Of course I can not dodge her - she is pushing her cart in my direction as a tractor-beam locked in on a target. And there in the main aisle next to the cold medicine - we catch up. While I'm talking to Christi, I do a shout out to a guy in Jayhawk shirt - told him, "Hey Kansas, I like your shirt." He smiled and then I came in for the punch, "Not really - I root for KANSAS STATE and don't forget red and blue always makes PURPLE!!" And then I started showing everyone my fuzzy purple socks!!! Yup it happened; ask Christi. I have missed her laugh and I told her that we need to get the "old BBW" group back together at least for lunch or dinner - we would have a hoot laughing.....we were a fun bunch!!!
So Christi goes to check-out and I go about shopping. Didn't see anyone else that I knew. Christi has now witnessed "Donna's Dressing For Your Environment" as for the rest of my friends - if you hang out with me - you have been warned. However, in an effort to be transparent, most people refer to my "Dressing For Your Environment" as Saturday and Sunday.
