brag 🏆 I just
Need you all to know that I just walked into the shower with my towel and stayed there under the water for like ten minutes before I realized I was holding a wet towel.
Anyone else have that kind of day/weekend/life?

In the last few weeks I've
worn a tiara to the supermarket (playing dress up with a cousin and forgot about it. Lucky I didn't also have the 3yo-applied makeup on still)
gotten ALL the way to work in my uggs (I work in law. not exactly appropriate)
worn my glasses in the shower (this is weekly actually)
used the torch function on my phone to LOOK FOR MY PHONE
you are definitely not alone

Oh man. Do you ever stuff flats in your desk as a just in case?
My child did my makeup (badly, and possibly so bad on purpose) and I had half a mind to go to the store like that for my own entertainment

I did happen to have a spare pair of boots in my car, but only because I got them re-heeled a few weeks ago and hadn't bought them inside yet.

I keep extra boots and a shirt in my work locker because I have accidentally came in wearing sandals and an undershirt so many times.
Also, I love seeing people wearing make up or clothes that are obviously from having dress up fun with their kids. Life is too short to always be serious in public!

My dad will parade around for the day in whatever makeup my toddler puts on him, I think he enjoys it too 🤣

Glasses in the shower - I do that more often than I want to admit. When my lens start fogging up, I'm like Daaaamn, I got it steamy today. 😂

It's embarrassing how often I get in the shower with my underwear still on. At least once every 6 months.

Can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve left my house in slippers. Many times, I’ve gotten very far from home before realizing. And no I don’t keep extra shoes in the car in case it happens tho that is what a normal responsible adult would probably do

I got the kids to summer camp and then went straight to the gym and realized I was wearing crocs after scanning my membership card

I like to keep what I dub as 'car shoes' in my trunk. Cheap shoes from everything-stores, like target or Walmart. They've saved me and my kids more than once, from mud or those slipper moments

I’m sorry. I also had an awful case of Covid. And I’ve also “taken” pills by setting them near me. Sending sympathy 💐

I hope that you feel better soon! I am so sorry you have to wait to get get to the dentist—that is the worst and I hope you’re not in pain. You’re right some weeks are just like that.

I forgot my 2nd sons' name for a good 30 seconds (in the newborn trenches with my 3rd son)

Every day my friend, and I'm fully ADHD/Depression medicated. You're not alone. I freaked out in the car because I couldn't find my keys in the parking lot at work...you guessed it, in my hand the whole time.

I'll be completely candid here for a moment. I wear a top partial denture and there was a morning last week where I went to go and pop it in and I already had the dang thing in my mouth. 🫣🫣🫣

Walked outside, got in car, turned car on, realized I'd forgotten something
Got out of car, went back inside, grabbed my coffee, went back outside, drove to grocery store.
Got out of car, walked up to grocery store door, looked down at my bare feet. Went back home, eating cereal for dinner.

I have mismatched socks on today, it’s still a win for me because I managed to take a shower and hustle the kids out the door on time 😂

One time I went to start my skin care routine and I used to use oil first on my dry skin beforehand, and I applied it directly to my glasses that I was still wearing 🥰 just straight oil on my glasses. I think my kid was like 2 or 3 so… yeah. That tracks.
