In preparation for camping I headed to Tar.get today after going and making my new last name official where I picked up some supplies, including a pair of men’s charcoal gray sweatpants.
Last year when we went camping and I was freezing. I forgot one of the first rules of camping…Layers. And layers means you need some looser clothing. So I decided to purchase a pair of men’s sweatpants so that they are not only long enough, but so that I can wear other pants under them and layer up.
Now I have never been a small girl. It’s a combination of health issues I was born with, and just plain on bad habits. Oh make no mistake, this latest little burst in size is my own fault. I drank my way through out honeymoon, and haven’t given a care in the month since the wedding to what I’m eating. I gave myself a repreive. So yea, it’s my doing. But I’m also noticing that my age and health issues combined are really catching up with me-I have to watch what I stick in my trap just to main, much less loose. So it’s my deal, it’s harder, but whatever I’ll handle it. In the meantime, I came home with these rather large, rather comfy pants….
And now I will never take them off. I picked up the boy at the metro in them (and they are actually “nice” sweatpants, as far as sweatpants go) and he was speechless. I explained to him that I could totally see why someone who was a SAHM would easily fall into the ’sweatpant- tee shirt-pony tail hair wearing’ type cause it is COM-FY.
I can see the fear in the boy’s eyes already. Bwahahaha

I am immediately taking you to the nearest vintage boutique where you will be enchanted with the beautiful things and get this crazy sweatpants thing over with.
Cute blog! And I have to agree, nothing’s more comfy than Target sweatpants on a cold fall day!
They are pretty awesome sweatpants. BUT if you start wearing them to the office or out to dinner, I will come over and confiscate the fabulous sweatpants.
