Yesterday two of my friends that I work with and I had planned to go swimming at the pool. The boys and I were finishing a bike ride right before Stacy and Jess were coming over; it started to sprinkle a little. Then, I noticed that the sky was completely gray and looked like impending rain.
At that moment, Stacy and Jess showed up. We all half-heartedly agreed that it looked like rain, so my family had lunch and we just sat and talked. Besides, we concurred that the weather man assured us that there were storms coming our way that could ruin our afternoon at the pool.
As the day progressed, we began to realize that the weather man may not have predicted correctly. By 1:00 the sun was peeking through the clouds. By 1:45 the clouds were breaking up, and by 2:30 there was sun and major heat! At this point we were completely bummed, realizing that there was not enough time for a full day at the pool anymore.
So, we sat in my garage watching the kids play and sweating profusely from the heat. Ultimately, we had a great day, however. We hadn't visited since school let out, so the conversation became as pervasive as the sun and heat. By the time they left, my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing. It was a good day.
