Long, long day

I am wore out.

We started today at 9 a.m. and it ended this afternoon at 4:30 p.m. when we finally stepped back into the house.

This morning we took back off to Westmoreland County to visit George Washington's Birthplace, http://www.nps.gov/gewa/, I was hoping to torture my children some more but we had a much milder walk and tour.

There is not much here to see. It was a nice place that sits on Pope's Creek and if you drive down the park aways you can gain access to the Potomac River. Kid's liked it alot better than Stratford Hall, mostly because the tour was almost all outside and secondly there were real live animals.

They had chickens, sheep, horses and cows. Cows with really big horns on them. I don't know about you folks but anything that out weighs me and has sharp pointy things on its head is not something I really wanta be around with just a wooden fence between us. A fence I might add that was built to period, that means basically it was a bunch of firewood stacked in X's. We didn't Look at the cows long.

After leaving there we flew back to town to the gym. We also did the gym thing yesterday and like today we were 15 minutes late getting there. The Terrorist is the slowest moving kid when I am trying to do something drives me nuts. A cripple with a walker moves faster than this kid. I do not know what his problem is. We park the car, the Princess and I are out on the side walk waiting on him for 5 to 10 minutes and he still doesn't have his damn seat belt off. Any other time he is 6 counties away and I am having to call out the National Guard to go find him. I think it's all part of his plot to send me to the crazy home.

This was the first week I had been to the gym in the last month, needless to say things I didn't even know I owned hurt. The trainer, plus all this outside walking around the last two days has just about done me in. The scale had better reflect all this movement or I am gonna be one ticked off person.

For now it's off to bed. I am even to tired to check out the new challenges on Pogo tonight.

I know the world is coming to and end.
