Nothing to Wear

Having kids makes life a lot harder. And having 2 kids is a lot harder than having 1 kid. This is not news to me (or to any other parent), but I was reminded of it today. My husband and I are going to a dinner event tonight with some friends and family, and I foolishly waited until this morning to try to figure out what to wear. I tried on outfit after outfit, and just about everything I own either doesn't fit or is outdated. The remaining items are either too hot to wear in July or too casual for tonight. Feeling a little depressed, I asked my sister if I could raid her closet (she lives about 15 minutes away), but when I realized how much effort it would take to get the kids ready, pack up the car, drive over to her house, get the kids out of the car, drag them inside, try to watch them while looking through her closet and trying things on, get them back into the car, drive back home, and unload them and all our stuff... well, I just felt tired. So I decided to just make do with what I have. I still have no idea what I'm going to wear. Think anyone would notice if I just showed up in my usual uniform of capri sweats and a tank top? :)
