Rough day

So this morning started out just like normal. I was excited even though I was going to take it easy since I was hurting so bad. Just after noon my mom called and needed a ride up to SLC. That was OK. A long ride, but not bad. We came home for a bit and cleaned up the grill we will be taking this weekend. After that we decided we might go swimming at my sister's.

We get headed over there and my swim top is bugging me and pinching. I've gained too much weight for it come to find out and it kept making my arm numb. So the Husband says that we will just go get me a new one that fits.

This seemed like a great idea. This weekend we will be going up to Idaho for a family reunion and will be in the water for the most part of Saturday. So a swim top that fits would be great. We go to Wal-Mart and they don't have anything that will fit. We got to TJ Maxx and Ross and same thing. We go to the mall and look at a maternity store and they didn't have one. They suggested Torrid so we go there and they still didn't have one that I didn't have issues with.

So we headed back to Wal-Mart thinking if I get a good sports bra I can use it the one day for playing the water. Couldn't find anything there. We still needed to get shoes for this weekend since we will be outside a lot. At this point my feet had swollen so all the shoes that should have fit me were tight.

So here I am after 3+ hours of trying on swim wear that wouldn't fit even close I am sitting on one of those benches in the shoes section trying to force my swollen foot into a shoe losing all hope. I ended up crying in the aisle. I felt ashamed. Here I am a grown woman crying because she can't find shoes to feet my fat feet.

Husband, the great guy that he is, helped me calm down enough that we found some that fit even with my swollen feet, but will fit when they aren't swollen too. He made sure I didn't get just the cheapest ones because I was fed up at this point. He helped me to find some that are actually really comfy.

So today was just not a good day for me. Tomorrow will be better I hope.
