I had a dilemma today. You may have had this issue come up as well. It’s jammy day for me. I have a ton of work to catch up on from this week. Plus I woke up with a big kink in my neck and it hurts so bad. HATE that! It’s just the kids and I at home and right now only one kid even. I’m not picking the other one up from his friends house until after dinner.
It may be noon, but I need coffee dang it. I’m not really supposed to drink it but again, read above, I’m trying to catch up on work and I really need to crank it out. Plus, what does noon matter when you only got out of bed at 10:30? My system thinks it’s still morning. I also have to stay up late. Daughter and her friends are going to a bonfire then coming back here to sleepover. I’ll need to be up late to make sure everyone safely gets here.
The dilemma? Oh right, get past the rambling. I needed coffee and I really didn’t want to get dressed. I’ve run down the street for coffee many times in my jammies but their coffee is just horrible lately. So I’d need to drive another mile or so into town. Hmm, this means a longer trip, more likely hood of some idiot running into me. Yeah, I do worry that some butthead will run in to me when I’m looking oh so glamorous. I don’t care if the barista sees me in my jammies they are used to that. See how funny this dilemma is? But here’s the kicker!
I changed into jeans real quick before going and I went less than 4 miles round trip. The reason why? We live in district. If some idiot causes an accident I don’t want hubby showing up to the call and I’m in my jammies. lol Or worse yet, he’s not on the call and it’s just our friends making fun of me for being in my jammies. It’s not that he doesn’t know I’m going to be in them most of the day and it’s not that my friends aren’t going to read this and know. lmbo But the thought of possibly being everyone’s laugh at being the call of the day made me put jeans on. HOW DID THAT HAPPEN? I could see if I was miss fashion, but I’m very far from that.
So there’s my funny story for today. I’ll be spending a lot of today in the exact position of my picture. I don’t need to be dressed up to work from home 
Have you ever changed your plans or your clothes because your afraid of who’ll show up on any call you’d be in? I can’t say this is a first either cause we’ve lived in district since he started being a firefighter. Feel free to tell me I’m the only one, I can take it.

I do the same thing. We live in the district that he works in part-time so I’m always making sure that I put on clothes instead of jammies when I go out. Whenever I drive through the district that he works in full-time I usually think about who would come on the call if I was in an accident. If my husband is on duty I can only imagine him getting a call for his wife!
ROFLMAO I’m glad I’m not the only one. TMI I’m sure, but I hate to wear bra’s. Hubby laughs his butt off cause I’ll go out to quickly pick the kids up from somewhere that I don’t have to get out of the car and talk out loud about what shift it is and who should be working what station. Then decide if I’d better go add the bra. I’ve done that since he started as a volunteer lol
LOL! I’m with y’all too. I get up and get dressed because, not only do we live in district, my forgetful Boo has a habit of showing up on our doorstep, (to get whatever he forgot – drivers license, wallet, head) and brings the whole damn crew in with him!!! Not only do I have to be dressed, I have to be hospitable too! I tell him, if he keeps doing it, I’m not gonna offer drinks, I’m gonna put a damn paintbrush in everybody’s hand and their all gonna finish painting the kitchen he’s left unfinished for 6 months.

LOL Amber. Thankfully I’m not in hubbies area now that he’s at a different station so I don’t worry about that as much anymore. They’d stop and pick up things after calls previously and I’d be all flustered. Cause I’d always look like crap. Never mind how the house looked, I hate housework lol I love being in district, but I prefer getting to drop things off to him.
I’m not in FF’s district, but I still have to get dressed…well, sort of…to go out. I drive my son to school, and I’ve seen accidents in the mornings as everyone’s apparently still driving asleep. The people usually aren’t very injured and end up standing out on the side of the road talking to the cop or whatever. So I’m always afraid I’ll end up in a fender-bender and don’t want to end up standing on the side of the road in my jammies with all the school traffic going by.
That said, I still don’t really dress, I just wear sweat pants and a boyfriend-T or a hoodie, depending on the weather.
Yeah, sweat pants and a hoodie is dressed for me too. lol
So happy to see that I’m not the only one who hates bras! LOL! I have been in a car accident were EVERYONE, when I say EVERYONE knew my husband. The paramedic and EMT on the ambulance (my FF has worked with them), the dispatcher (my FF’s best friend’s dad), the guys on the rescue squad ( I wasn’t in the city were my FF volunteers), the sheriff’s deputy (who called my FF on his cell phone to tell him I was in an accident), and the state trooper (who was in my FF’s National Guard unit) all knew my husband! I’m so glad that I had just came from work and had scrubs on!
Yeah, that’s exactly why I rethink leaving the house even for a trip a mile down the road. lol
