"We love to play at the Y-M-C-A!"

So here it is. I dumped my gym. The feeling of being in an episode of "Nip and Tuck" (which I've never actually watched) was getting to me. Plus, the kids really hated the Kidz Zone: the babysitting room where they watched your kids. I don't blame them. It stank of recently disposed diapers and the workers weren't terribly friendly. We didn't have to pay an initiation fee because they had some deal going on, and we were paying month to month, so no monetary loss.

HOWEVER, this doesn't mean I've given up on working out. Instead, we joined the nearby YMCA. It ROCKS! For less than we were paying at the other place, they have EXCELLENT workout epquipment and group classes AND we get a free pool membership. This is especially excellent considering the adorable little kids pool they have.
Its a brand new facility, so it's really nice. Also, Stevie and David really like the childcare area, so much in fact that they didn't want to leave yesterday.

We spent the entire afternoon at the pool. The kids had a marvelous time. And I (being an idiot) was so intent on spraying sunscreen all over my face and my children, completely forgot to spray my back. The good news is that I no longer have a farmer's tan. The bad news is that my back is now a charred lump of red flesh.
