My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
I had a completely different post scheduled for today. However, when I walked into Target earlier this afternoon and spotted something horrendous in the women's clothing department, I suddenly felt the need to share what I saw. So, I whipped out my cellphone and took these photographs for you.
Are you ready?
Are you sure?
Okay, here goes...
I just about clutched my heart, fell on the floor, and died from shock when I saw what Target was already advertising on their sales floor.
Look at this...
BATHING SUITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IN JANUARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two things:
#1) - I'm in retail and have always disliked how it's MONTHS ahead of the season it is currently in, never allowing you to enjoy the season you're experiencing. Retail is the worst example of learning how to live in the present because it's always living in the future.
No doubt, I still enjoy my work in retail. However, I don't enjoy its politics. And it's getting worse with each passing decade.
#2) - Can we please just enjoy winter without projecting into summer? For god sake, winter just started. Summer is FIVE months down the road. And as you all know, I hate cannot stand summer. So, seeing two-piece bathing suits on faceless mannequins in Target made me want to cover my eyes and recoil in horror.
Summer lovers have already had their time (last summer). Now it's time for us winter lovers to enjoy our time - the cold, the snow, wearing knit hats, scarves, down jackets, and gloves.
I don't even want to think about bathing suits, sunshine, humidity, and 98-degree heat just yet.
No, I want to savor the season we're in.
My second-favorite season...
Winter -
Happy Winter, Everyone! ⛄
And Happy New Year!
