Will do 3 for 3

I am SORE!  Achy achy leg muscles.  I've got a whiny-ass daughter who won't get off my case about every damned thing.  Everything I touch or think about or imagine FALLS down and SPILLS out all over the floor.  THAT WOMAN in the grocery store parking lot driving like a maniac, taking that turn too fast and then gunning it where **I** have to hit MY BRAKES for HER, and then she ceases to drive, she's just kind of moving around the parking lot then.  WTF!!!!!  I just want to leave.. ...to go home, make lunch, drop, spill and knock-over everything in my vicinity.

But I had a good lunch. My gym clothes are in the dryer.  We'll go to the Y when they're done. I'll get the kids in the pool, and then I'll do my 30 minutes of cardio on the elliptical trainer.  And that will be day 3 of my plan for this week. Freakin' 3 for 3.

I'm sure somehow... SOME HOW... I'll feel better for it.

Smuggling in a beer, and sitting under an umbrella while I finish my book sounds even better.  Well, I'll have time for that (well, NO beer) at the pool this afternoon.... not cooking dinner tonight.  We can stay a bit longer than normal, I have about 80 pages left of my book, I'll even bring a new book along just in case... well, no.  I kind of miss listening to tunes in the shade.  That will be my reward for finishing a book.

I go to the Y, dressed and ready for a workout.  I take two bags with me.  One is the pool bag, sunscreen, waterbottle, pool toys.  Pool towels get carried by the kids.  The other bag is a gym bag; in it is my swimsuit and bath towel.  After I work out, I will shower to rinse off, then I dry off and change into my suit.  Gym clothes go into gym bag, which goes out and hangs out under an umbrella with me at the pool.  I've done this once before and it worked rather well.  The only thing I forgot was sandals and a cover up for when I'm leaving the Y.  I used a towel wrapped around me and wore sneakers.  I thought my swimsuit and athletic shoes were an interesting combination, even my pain in the ass daughter commented on this too.  but I've worn odder things before with my swimsuit (go to the Final Mental Image at the end)
