Huggable Hangers?

When I'm no longer fat, I look forward to my clothes staying on the hangers.

Right now, everything is so big, it just slides right off. Perhaps I should be using Joy Mangano's Hubbable Hangers. Have you seen these on QVC? They look amazing. But somehow, I just can't convince myself to buy something from QVC. Now if I could find them in the "As Seen On TV" section of the store, I'd probably grab them.

On a non-band related note, I have to tell you about our experience at church yesterday. We go to a pretty small church, only about 50 people there on any given Sunday, so they're glad when anyone comes. As we're leaving church yesterday (in a blizzard, no less, it kicked up during the service) I run ahead with my 2 year old while my hubby is right behind me with the keys and my 4 year old. He isn't immediately behind me, so I turn around and see he is talking to an elderly lady. I run back, grab the keys from his pocket, and I hear him say "Well, we're just going to continue to bring our kids to church and do the best we can." I'm thinking, "what's going on . . ." but I run my daughter to the car, and then he's there shortly behind me. When we're all out of the blizzard, he told me that this lady pulled him aside after the service to tell him that she thought our children acted downright terrible, and she was offended. She said, "I'm just a visitor, and I don't know if I should say this, but I wanted to let you know that you'll probably be offending other visitors." I guess she was still bitching at him when he just walked away.

What a rag, huh? Who does that? You don't go to another congregation and tell a lovely young family that the kids are horrible. Especially because they weren't. We've had much worse days at church. There was no crying, no fits, no screaming for anything. They were chatty, but that's how you keep two little kids entertained for an hour and 15 minutes.

Anyway, she really bothered me yesterday. I've never had ANYONE, let alone a stranger, tell me that my kids were misbehaved. My hubby should have pushed her in the snow.

  2. Uggh - I'm not sure what my husband would have done in that situation. I commend you for taking them both - just one is hard!
    OK - I'll fess up I have bought stuff from QVC and had no problems - plus they take everything back. My friend had those hangers and liked them.They sell them at Target too.
