Seriously SO EMBARRASING!

Last Monday, October 21st, as the kids were headed out to get on the bus Rhett's nose started to bleed.  I told him we would get it to stop and then I would run him to school.  My kids are seriously one of the last stops so we don't have a lot of time between when the bus comes and when the bell rings.  So we hurried and got the nose to stop bleeding and headed out to the car.  When we got outside my suburban was still hooked-up to a trailer from the night before when we were helping our neighbor haul her 4-wheeler home from her ranch so my only option that morning was to run him to school in Ryan's filthy dirty ranch truck.  We jumped in and headed to the school.  As I was pulling into the circle drive drop-off area of our school I noticed a cop WITH HIS LIGHTS ON pulling in behind me.  You've got to be kidding me, I thought!! SERIOUSLY! Right here infront of teachers, students and OTHER PARENTS!! When the officer got to my window I rolled it down and his eyes got big as he saw my fuzzy pink bathrobe.  I was HUMILIATED!!  He kinda chuckled as he asked if I happened to have my drivers license on me this morning.  Luckily I had atleast grabbed my purse.  He looked at my license as he told me I was going 30 in a 25 mph zone and 25 in a 20 mph zone.  In my head I am screaming SERIOUSLY, S.E.R.I.O.U.S.L.Y!! YOU PULLED ME OVER FOR GOING 5.....FIVE OVER THE SPEED LIMIT!!  He then handed me my license back, didn't say a word about not wearing my seat belt or anything, thank goodness, and told me to slow down a little and to next time "maybe leave a few minutes earlier!" When I was telling my sister about what he said she told me I should have told him "If I had left any earlier I MAY NOT HAVE EVEN HAD THE BATHROBE ON DUDE!!" I went to the school later that day and one of the moms who is my friend said as she saw me, "Natalie, I am glad to see you got dressed for the day!" SOOO EMBARRASSING!!  :)
And here we are, me and the fuzzy pink bathrobe in all it's glory! Everybody else has seen it now, you might as well see it too! :)
