Waterpark Workout
The kids and I had an absolutely wonderful day today. Wow. Tons of fun. Tons of water. Tons of climbing lots of stairs for the "scarey" waterslides. I got quite the workout today. I just loved this waterpark. I also love that I am supporting an area that was devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
On the way home, I saw the weirdest sight. Wow. Driving down the interstate. Doing just a tiny bit over the speed limit. I look at a car that has pulled onto the shoulder of the road. I look again. OMG. A woman has a boy 8 - 10 years old by his arm - spanking him with a leather belt. My mouth flew open. My brain registered shock. What in the heck do you do in that situation ? By the time it actually jived with me what has happening I was passed them. The traffic was crowded and everyone was cruising along. It wasn’t like you could just stop. Ugh. Such a weird thing. Guess I’ll have nightmares over that one tonigh. Blah.
I had considered taking the kids to the pool tomorrow, but I think we’ll skip that. They need a day or so to get over all the sun they got today. I did line up a babysitter for a little while tomorrow. Woooohooooo. I’m going to have some me time.
Oh yeah - all those letters( Jr League ) I had to get out - task accomplished. Whew !!!
I almost puked when I read that about the mom and son. Disgusting!
