Getting Started

Today is one of those days where I am getting an exceptionally slow start. I have been fooling around at this computer for over three hours and I have no idea what I have accomplished. I don’t know if it is because I am tired or just that I have been busy lately and today has become sort of a day off.

This wasn’t and was the plan for the summer. The real plan was to take the kids to Chuck E Cheese on Monday’s to work and then go to Gather Wednesday and then watch the kids on Friday so my wife could work. It all got switched around a bit because the kids decided they didn’t like Chuck E Cheese anymore.

The kids are all about Sky Zone and it is the only place they want to go. They like it which is good but it is also expensive. Especially when compared to Chuck E Cheese. There is also the fact that I can have fun at Chuck E Cheese. They have games I can play with them or buy myself. Instead at Sky Zone I have nothing to do but watch the kids play or purchase overpriced food.

Right now I am ready to get my day started but I am also hungry and want to eat something. This is what happens when I sit around for longer than two hours wondering where the time went. It catches up and reminds me that I should eat. That’s life.

Now that things are slowing down a bit with less responsibilities chasing me I can relax a little bit. I still have lots to do and get to but it is slowing down. One big thing is done and who knows what is next. Who knows what can happen today. I have things I would like to do, but I am not sure they fit.

There is an elevated heat warning today which means it might not be wise to do too much outside, but I would like to go to the water park even if it will be insanely busy. It is fun and the kids will have fun. We need a more relaxed Tuesday to go, and that will come. The summer has just gotten started even if it will end before we are ready.

Spending time together as a family is a good activity and it can be done at home as much as at the water park, but we don’t have any water slides here which makes home less fun than a water park. Yet we’d still have to deal with real feel weather of ten thousand. It makes the ultimate decision something the think about.
