When you think of “Real Housewives of —” the image of
the TV shows most likely pops into your head… They have a lavish life filled with spa days, lunches with the girls, fabulous vacations and shopping at high-end boutiques. Their lives are filled with diamonds and more LVs than they can count.
Then there’s me…
My spa day consists of a pedicure with my bestie, Ruby, at Turbo Nails. My shopping is done at Goodwill, Plato’s Closet, garage sales and the clearance section of Target. A fabulous lunch with the girls usually takes place at our favorite Panera Bread. My vacations involve a tent and lots of bug spray. And minus my lone LV (a fabulous steal from a garage sale) and the couple pairs of Joe Jeans (fabulous deals at Plato’s Closet), my wardrobe is far from fabulous… And covered in spit-up 98% of the time.
I am currently at school for 12 hours every day and the other 12 hours are spent tending to a newborn and trying to keep the house livable. This leaves little time to partake in the above festivities, which ultimately, I have very little money for anyway.
Also a huge difference between the other “real housewives” and I, there will be no skimpy bikini covering this mama body anytime in the foreseeable future. I do not have a nice, tan, perfectly toned body free of stretchmarks. And I definitely don’t have large, full breasts to flaunt. Oh no. This 5’4 size 10 body will not be making an appearance in a bikini any time soon.
Good thing this blog is about the REAL housewives of Minnesota and not the GLAMOROUS housewives of Minnesota! 🙂
Love,
Macy
