Today was all about being hot, sweaty, and uncomfortable. Ugh. Carting around two kids in a minivan in 86 degree heat made me wistful for the old summer days I remember before I was mommed.
I’d stop at a deli, buy a hard salami sandwich with a pickle, drive down to the beach with my windows unrolled and the music cranked. I’d let the breeze whip my hair into my mouth. I’d sing.
I’d lie down on the hot sand in a teeny-tiny bikini and know I looked great. The heat would soak me raw and hot. I’d walk down to the water to cool off.
I could spend my whole day doing nothing and being responsible for absolutely nothing. Maybe I’d take a nap later on and just chill out.
I just noticed the stubby end of a pretzel stick that Genny left for me on my desk.
She made cherry juice earlier.
She actually helped water the garden and only complained once.
Cole is sleeping. Genny is sleeping.
And I just finished a cool glass of ice tea.
why don't you still get the sandwich and go to the beach with kids?
