Blowing Off the Grocery Shopping, No. 3


Dear Family,

I just couldn't do it today. I am so sorry. We will have no yogurt or Honey Nut Os for breakfast tomorrow. You will have to make do with jelly toast.

I know it sounds ridiculous, but some days the thought of going into the grocery store is just too much. Not even the promise of a tub of dark chocolate covered almonds could get me in there today. (And that often does the trick.)

I will try to be a better person and go tomorrow. I will try to get the dishes done today. I will make sure your socks and underwear are clean by morning.

Please be gentle with me. I am already feeling terribly guilty and vexed with myself.

Love to you all,
Mama

P.S. I did manage to make a quick stop at the market for a half gallon of milk.
