Haha thanks, A1! I'm trying to decide to go to church either at the conservative Catholic church that is super close to the yoga studio or the liberal one that is a few miles down the road that I actually belong to. Just writing that out reminds me that I should go to the liberal one. Haha Oh yeah, add in like six loads of laundry! My husband is working on a big legal case and is already out the door for work today. If all goes well, he'll be home in time to go to Costco with me haha

Eek, just double checked all of the schedules and I might have to go to the conservative place. I'm secretly preferring that bc I'll feel less bad for showing up in scandalous yoga clothes. I know several PPDs from the office who go to the other!

Ha you feel better dressing scandalous at a conservative church??? 😏

Haha yeah. Long story short, just got home from Costco (still need to unload an epic amount from car) and turns out the 12 noon Mass at that conservative church was the Spanish Mass! I did not put two and two together until I was already inside. I was a Spanish double major in college so it ended up being ok, but so goofy. A1- yeah, I'm remembering why my husband and I stopped going to that church. The first three pages of their bulletin are all about fundraising. It's tacky. My husband left at 9 am this morning to work and said that he won't be home until around 10 pm tonight. And we consultants think that we have it bad!
