  1. Great post! I’m stumbling right now.

    Esp. love the grocery one. I always feel naked without my kids. Or I would, if I ever did go to the grocery store without them.

  2. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve caught myself talking out loud in the grocery store with nobody around. Very embarrassing.
