Target trips are a lot different than they used to be.
Today’s started with a text, “Is she still asleep?” Sent to my mom to see if I could steal 5 minutes on my way home from work, to stop before the baby woke up. I dashed in and grabbed baby saline nose spray, adult saline nose spray, and boogie wipes (You can decide which of us you think those are for.). I got these essentials so quickly I felt like I’d have an extra minute to grab a treat. I stood between the ice cream and beer sections at the far side of the store, contemplating for long enough, when I got the text, “She’s up.” Beer.

Wait! Your Target has alcohol? No fair! Not in Massachusetts. Boogie wipes and beer. What a combo! LOL!

I can't believe you left Target with only 3 things! I never get out of there with less than ten!

Ending is perfect! I love the way you structured this narrative sandwiched between the text messages!
