The kids and I just returned from a shopping trip to Wal-Mart. As low as some of their prices are, I can hardly stand to go there, especially with 2 kiddos. Perhaps it is the creepy Memphis Wal-Marts but I always feel like we need to hand sanitize upon leaving the store. I really have had some days when I drive in the Wal-mart parking lot and just don't feel up to dealing with that store, and drive back out. Generally we wait forever in line but today was our lucky day and we didn't have to wait a bit. Hurray! And we actually had a nice person checking us out. So, I suppose, that was one good thing about Wal-mart. I really ought to be more positive about the store since we do save a bit of money by shopping there, but after barely surviving our experience today, I'm wiped out by it all.

Barely Survived Wal-Mart

This was an outstanding celebration of the ordinary.
Yeah - not my best celebration of the ordinary...but I suppose I can at least be glad the experience didn't kill me. :)
I hear you on not being able to handle walmart. Last time I went Matt had to keep telling me, "deep breaths Angie, you can do it.." :)
