Tales
from the Crypt Commissary
This morning all my kids woke up
before the butt crack of dawn! Luckily
the princess started yelling for daddy bc he forgot to set his alarm! I got up changed them all, fed them and
headed off to the commissary (grocery store on base) The commissary is always
full of chaos when you have 3 under 3.
Last time we went I buckled the big uns into the car at the front of the
cart and gave them my phone and they were fine.
We today every stinking cart had broken buckles! EVERY ONE! My guess is there are many more military
wives with crazed kids like mine that have broken free! Anyway I started early to avoid the crowds
and the countless amount of elderly folk that have nothing better to do then
stop, stare and say Oh My! You have your hands full! Thankfully it was fairly dead in there this
morn! We didn’t get 20 feet in the door
before princess started throwing a fit.
She wanted out, in, out, in then decided to lay on the floor… The lady stocking the produce was shaking her
rude lil head and I very sarcastically replied Well! If there was just 1
freaking cart in this store with a working seat belt this wouldn’t be an
issue! Grrr people do your job and mind
your own stinking business!
Well it got more comical as we dredged
through a few isles. I decided to
capture a few pics so you could see what I was talking about…
Yeah so after many unsuccessful attempts
to keep them in the cart, several things knocked on the floor and stuff rearranged
on shelves, them laying in the floor, climbing on the cart, me and the shelves.
I was defeated and done! I could not bear to go one more isle! We headed to the check out where grandpa bagger
started in. Your kids not have
shoes today? OMG Grandpa! I should have said no were to poor for shoes or something off the wall like that!
But I said well if you look in the cart you will see 3 lil pairs!
Luckily we made them out of there with 3
whole pairs since I had to stop to pick them up several times!
Grandpa continued to hurl randomly
rude comments to the car where he loaded our groceries. After I sat and had a few deep breaths for
several minutes I decided danget I deserve starbucks for this! Pumpkin Spice Frap is always the answer
hahaha
Ok so 1st moms of
multiples, especially young multiplies what is your advice for grocery
shopping? I used to love grocery
shopping! Now I dread it! And since I only
got half done this morn I have to eventually go back!
