May 5: New Clothes

I went to Marshall's to get my husband some new socks, and to look for a few items for me: new pajama pants, maybe some pajama shorts in preparation for summer time, and new sports bras for running. The two sports bras that I currently have I swear I have had since high school, they've lasted so long because I only wear them for exercising, and I have only ever exercised sporadically in the last twenty years (Let's see... I went to the gym [SPAC] in college regularly for about a semester, I went to the YMCA in Beloit during one of my summers in college, I joined the Westford Racquetball and Tennis Club Gym for 6 months in 2010 [by the far the most successful gym experience I've ever had], I vaguely remember joining a 24 hour gym at some point for a bit in Groton, I joined a gym in Waltham for a few months in 2012, and I went to the YMCA in Gloucester and Ipswich for about a year a few years ago.) Now that I have set the goal to run for 30 minutes every day with my very own elliptical at home, I figured I should upgrade my sports bra collection, and I found three delightful new ones at Marshalls. They are super soft and comfy, and they make me excited to use them and keep up my running regiment. Ever since I quit my job in the midst of this pandemic, I haven't had much need for new clothes, since I've just been at home wearing pajamas, paint clothes, and leggings/hoodies most of the time, so it was delightful to get finally get some new clothes. I did take a glance at the dress collection at Marshalls like I usually do, but because I don't yet really have any places to wear dresses and  because the dressing rooms are still closed due to COVID, I don't really feel like spending money on things I can't try on first. So for now, I'll stick to the pajamas. (By the way, the pajama pants I got are also super soft and comfy). One more delightful thing, while in the checkout line, I saw two bags of gummy bears, which my husband has been enjoying recently after our friends keep bringing over bags for Magic Pizza Tuesday, so I decided to buy them for him. So yes, I delightfully brought home socks and gummy bears for my husband. 

With delight,
