Once upon a time (pre-kids) shopping was a pleasurable experience. I would go on a Saturday, have lunch, maybe catch up with a friend, look in shops, try clothes on, go to another shop, try clothes on, go back to the original shop and buy the item i originally saw anyway. That was called browsing.
Nowadays i go to a shop (with my list of course, no spontaniety) and look for a specific item - it's in the right size, i look semi-decent in it, and it doesn't cost $9999 so i'll take it. This takes all of about 3 minutes! Then i spend the other hour looking for things for the kids and then i go home because i've had enough.
Shopping used to be so pleasurable.
Maybe again one day.
On another note, to my million and one followers i will upload some photos eventually. I'm not the quickest to master technology - but i get there eventually!
I dread shopping with children. In fact, I loathe it. I agree, it's impossible when you have children. I rarely go to the supermarket anymore, but send my husband instead; and me and the children all stay at home! And there are no fights.
