I can't imagine owning a suit, much less wearing one. My step-mother tried to give me something wool and dry clean only for Christmas. I very politely declined and explained to her that kids and dry clean just do not mix!
I;m sure you looked lovely. I bet you could hardly notice the snot, puke and blood.
Ummm are we having a bad day????
Do we still have the Chicken Pox on top of the suit issue??
Whaaaa? Why are you at work? Don't you have chicken pox??
I second the "Why at work with the pox" comment?!
Get back into bed!
That must be a suit of teflon if you can just wipe off snot, spit up and blood. I want one.
I used to hate getting to the end of the day and THEN seeing the snot/spit up/ baby food smeared on my shoulder.
Yuck.
Thanks for the memories.
I can relate to this today...I put on my favorite shirt this morning, and two minutes later my son smeared a blueberry on the front of it. Knowing that blueberry stains (really, really badly) I immediately put Spray N Wash on it and threw it in the washing machine.
Bodily fluids: the perfect accessories to any outfit.
Too frickin funny.
Too funny! Also happens on important-interview day or fancy-date night.
There is an unspoken rule in motherdom (is that a word?) The minute you put on something nice, your child will come down with a raging case of stomach flu.
Hope you survived suit day!
Happy Suit Day!

Come to think of it, I bought a 5 or 6 suits 2-3 years ago when I thought I'd try being someone's employee again after owning my own business for 20 years... I quit after 8 hours... but I still have the suits!
wow a suit. I dont think I even have a skirt anymore around here. Do you have to shave to wear a suit? I'm no longer jealous if you do.
Suit day = suck day.
But did you get this question: "Are you getting a new job?" or "Do you have an interview today?"
I hate those questions. Dumbass, if I did, do you think I'd be dumb enough to wear the suit to work and raise suspicion?
But I'll bet you looked amazing anyway.
No suits or stocking for me. I keep is simple and smart casual for work. Do you keep the baby wipes in your handbag? Doesn't the baby need them?
So it was Acne and not Pox !
This post explains why I've been wearing jeans for the past twenty years...
:-) i totally get suit day.
Imagine working somewhere where every day was suit day? Scary, but awesome.
