3. Sweats, jeans, and tee’s. When you are a working mom, of course you tend to look like you just stepped off the runway every morning in carpool line, but when you are a SAHM, your new look basically consists of sweats, jeans, and tee’s and that’s okay. Flannel can be the new go-to. It’s important that you are comfortable in whatever you are wearing and save those special outfits for date-night because you don’t want those Louis Vuitton’s covered in only God knows what.
4. You’ve washed the same load of laundry more than once. This is one that we have all done. You put a load of laundry in the wash and realize the next day, “oops, I forgot to put that load in the dryer,” and you have to rewash those musty wet socks and underwear all over again. It’s not the end of the world, and maybe those sweaty gym clothes needed a second-go-around anyway.
5. You are secretly jealous of your working friends. When you see your working friends in their pristine fashionable work clothes, positing pictures of the five-course steak lunch that the boss treated the office to, or are listening to the latest edition of salacious soap opera office gossip, it is a bit hard to not think that you should immediately brush off the old resume and rejoin the world of the working, but just remember, that you can live vicariously through your working friends. It’s okay to think that they have found the Holy Grail of adulthood in their 9-5. But, secretly, just know, she may be wishing that she was you instead!
