Okay, another attempt at clothes shopping for pants and...I got two great pairs of dressy pants from Reitmans (one black, one ash grey), and a nice pair of Roots capri mantra pants (black). They were also bought on sale or via gift card :) I have to say that my clothing size went from S to M and two pant sizes up from my pre-pregnancy size. All done in 2.5 hours and one very poopy diaper. I have to say, it's wonderful to be able to try out clothes in a spacious fitting room. Reitmans, Roots and Old Navy has great change rooms for moms with strollers and/or walking children. Thanks to these stores and many more that have us moms in mind!
Still looking for a pair of cords and Lululemon long yoga pants, maybe tomorrow when I go out with my mom...My mom...I talked to her today after yesterday's horrible phone conversation and we didn't even talk about it. Which is fine, I don't want to bring it up, but I felt some anger/embarrassment in her voice. I just hope it wasn't directed towards me. It occurred to me that her way of dealing with conflict is too simply stop or disconnect. For example, if a gift exchange between two people didn't go well (ex. Christmas, birthdays) than, don't give any gifts to that person anymore. If a trip wasn't fun with someone, don't go with them again. If a stay at someone's house didn't seem welcome, don't go there anymore. For her, it's all or nothing. I hate that. I wish she could be more flexible and not take things so seriously. Really. I don't know why I feel I have to report on her today, perhaps I don't want to become like her.
