My trip to the water park..

Jun 26, 2010

So, this summer I felt good enough to take my boys to the water park.  I haven't been in public in a bathing suit in a few years, at least.  We went three times last week.  Well, on the third time my son wanted to ride a water slide, A BIG WATER SLIDE!   We got to the top, stepped in the opening to put our raft in and WHAM! My feet flew out from under me. I hit my tail bone on the step of this awful slide; I've been in pain since yesterday.   All I could think is "if I had that extra cushion this wouldn't have happened".  Then again, if I had that extra cushion, it wouldn't have happened, because I wouldn't have gotten up there in the first place.    Anyway, I was in shock for a minute, tried talking my son out of riding this thing, but like most 7  year olds, he wouldn't budge, he wanted to go.    In the end we went down and I'm glad we did, we both had a great time...butt bruised and all.   I'm thankful for all the changes I'm going through that made this much possible.    I'm glad to have the opportunity to spend this time with my kids, had it been summers past, we would have been sitting at home doing nothing.   

I'm down 83 lbs, people are noticing my size 16 shorts are getting too big. Yay me!
