I want a lounge chair ...
* look at clock and realize the pool opens in 20 minutes
* slightly panic because if you want a chair to lay out in in this town ... you have to be standing in line 15 minutes before pool opens.
* tell kids to get swimming suits on
* inform them that if Mommy does not get a chair she will not be a happy camper laying on the cement
* dig beach towels out of dryer
* attempt to cram 4 beach towels into beach bag
* cussing under breath because towels will not fit in beach bag ... due to 3 pairs of goggles, 5 tubes of chap stick, 3 swimsuit cover ups, diving sticks, 3 pairs of sunglasses, hair brush, sunscreen and baby oil
* get frustrated and decide kids can just carry their towels
* realize my 4 bottles of water are not in my bag yet
* go to kitchen to get water bottles from the freezer
* get sidetraked when panic over takes me when I notice that there is only 17 minutes till the pool opens.
* scream at kids to hurry up
* realize I forgot to pick up the kitchen after lunch
* debate with self if it is more important to leave immediately to score a chair at the pool or pick up lunch so Clint does not have to see it when he walks in the door after getting off of work
* chair wins
* shove the kids out the door
* everyone wines as the 196 degree weather slaps us all in the face
* try to open car door ... but it is so darn hot I can hardly touch it
* Eythen starts to complain that his feet are to hot as I am trying to open the car door
* look down and notice that Eythen does not have shoes on
* Really???
* tell Eythen to go get shoes on his feet
* finally get everyone in the car
* everyone starts to scream for me to turn on the AC
* AC only blows out hot air
* everyone wines that the AC is not cooling them down fast enough
* reach for 1 of my water bottles to take a sip of water
* Shit!!!
* forgot the water bottles
* run back inside to get my frozen water bottles
* convince myself that every other stay at home Mom in town is gonna get the chairs before I can even pull out of my driveway
* finally pull out of the drive way with 10 minutes to go before the pool opens
* notice that the line is clear out to the street when we pull into the pool parking lot
* instruct Breeanna and Harleigh to take off and dart through the line to grab me a chair ... once the pool opens
* listen to Eythen ask me "How much longer till the pool opens" every 30 seconds ... for the next 5 minutes
* attempt to count how many people may be wanting a lounge chair that are standing in line in front of me
* debate about writing an letter to the City demanding they buy more lounge chairs for next summer
* pretend like I do not hear Eythen ask me for the 18th time "How much longer till the pool opens?"
* pretend like I do not hear Harlegh inform me that Eythen just asked me "How much longer till the pool opens?"
* pool opens and I yell "GO" to Breeanna and Harleigh ... while frantically pointing my finger at the lounge chair area
* realize I might have sounded like I was at a track meet and I was in charge of starting the race when yelling "GO" ... a moment ago
* Breeanna gives me a thumbs up as I am still standing in line to enter the pool
* *sigh of relief* Momma's got a lounge chair
* the girls are MIA by the time I reach by beloved lounge chair
* lay beach towels on lounge chair
* wind blows one beach towel off
* chase beach towel down
* tuck beach towel into grooves of chair
* watch Eythen hop on the hot cement like a bunny on crack trying to get to the water
* wonder how Harleigh already made it down the slide 3 times before I could even bust out the sunscreen
* CRAP! SUNSCREEN!
* sunscreen on wet children ... not gonna happen
* make mental note to self to buy some of the sunscreen that you can put on wet skin the next time I am at the store
* grab water bottle because I am so hot and thirsty
* tip back water bottle to take a drink
* one itty bitty dribble of ice cold water comes out of the bottle
* make mental note to lay out frozen water bottles earlier next time
* lay down in lounge chair
* 2 minutes later ... sweating in places I did not know could sweat
* get up to go and sit in the pool
* 2 hours later ... get out of the pool
* 20 minutes later finally get all 3 children rounded up
* get to lounge chair ... and already lost 1 children along the way
* spot Eythen jumping in off the side of pool
* see Eythen come up above water with a shit eatin grin on his face
* give Eythen the "get your ass over here right now before Mommy looses it
look
* pack up everything on the lounge chair ... that I did not even lay out in
