Old navy is a great place to buy clothes from and using old navy coupons you can get discounts on items pretty easily. -Anne

I love this post. It makes me laugh and I empathize along with you.

I am that fourth mom too.

I can get bored sometimes and I wish I could wear high heels to B&N but my life is so cool and I’m grateful that I can up and go to B&N any time of the day.

One of the main reasons I continue to work is that I strongly suspect that I would quickly turn into Bored Mom. I fight her all weekend long.

Well yep, that pretty much describes me to a T. I’m a #2 through and through. Well, except that I don’t think I could handle B&N. The library is insane enough for me.

I probably look like the Burn Out Mom, minus the slippers. I’m usually in flip flops no matter what. I don’t wear make-up everyday. I kinda go au natural on that 75% of the time. I look frustrated usually b/c my 2 yr old and 4 yr old have run me ragged. I also have 1 in school. I don’t really feel Burnt out most days, but in a book store with a 2 yr old…I know I look it! LOL! I’m chasing him around picking up book she’s thrown in the floor, tryign to get him to sit down and read a book.

Anyways, good post. I’ll have to people watch next time I’m at the book store.

I hope I HOPE that I’m #4 on this list at least more days than not. There are certainly days when I am burnt out I have to admit but it’s usually after several weeks of averaging 3-4 hours of sleep a night . But, as Manic said, I am way too busy with three kids to be bored, and nobody at B&N needs to see me trying to be slutty.

This made me think about the moms I’ve seen at Chapters (the Canadian alternative to B&N). The one who comes most readily to mind is the mom who physically blocked my daughter as she was gleefully running away while I chased her with a howling three-year-old under my arm. Maybe call her the Friend in Need Mom? Except I was too embarrassed to actually look her in the eye, so I wouldn’t recognize her if I saw her again…

I go to Borders because that’s the book store in the town that I work in. Since I’m not a SAHM I got to thinking about my “type” or what you would think of me from your impressions of me at the bookstore. I think it might be a post.

Hey! I’m a #4 also! Not a slut; too busy with three kids to be bored; and finally over the burned out slump now that I do have some daily free time!

Found you from Dawn!

And B&N is my most favoritest bestest place in the whole wide world! I’d live there if I could!
