today is the first day of spring, finally! But it is still cold and windy outside. I need hot air. Yesterday I decided to take a walk. by myself! The kids were napping and Rick was home, so I grabbed my ipod.. ya know, the one I bought in hopes of using at the gym to work off the baby weight….. that I’ve used once. Once when I was going to walk to wawa to get ice cream, but then got outside and it was too cold.. so I drove.. but I still wore my ipod!
Anyway, I decided to walk on the boardwalk to Atlantic City.. about 2 miles round trip, I would say. Maybe a little more. The walk there was nice. I just enjoy being alone sometimes. I am kicking myself that I didn’t bring my camera, the ocean was super rough. I don’t like being on the beach by myself when it is like that, what if a huge wave comes and pulls me out to sea? But would it be less scary if the beach was full of people? Yes, b/c then maybe someone would grab me and carry me to a safe spot. Maybe.
The boardwalk was empty b/c it was cold and overcast. No old people like usual. They love to walk next to me and talk to the kids. I swear, old people are always in my way, walking slow as hellz in front of me at grocery stores and what not, but they see me on the boardwalk with little kids and they practically run to catch up and pinch cheeks.
So anyway, I walked all the way to Jackson Ave, which marks the city limit for Ventnor and the start of Atlantic City, and I pulled a u-turn to walk home.. and it started to rain! It was gross and cold. I’m not the running type, so I just walked. At least I was alone with no one tugging on me saying they have to go pee pee!!
Right now I am making dinner. Mac and Cheese with tomatoes and asparagus. This will bother me later on when Katherine falls asleep and fills her night time diaper with that lovely stench that is asparagus peepee. fun times! And it is ok that I am serving Kath mac and cheese from a box, b/c its organic and cost twice the amount of the regular stuff.. so I feel less guilty?! I can’t cook, I don’t even feel like trying.
