adult scootering

While at church today
there were many who inquired about the injuries that covered my sons face
and how he got them.
It really isn't that exiting of a story--
Just the old
fell down
went boom...

Anyway, someone made the comment
that just the other day they saw and adult
on one of those scooters.
How Ridiculous--was his impression of the situation
an ADULT--scootering?
I couldn't understand his indignation at that--
big deal--right?

I now get it---
Grown woman--mothers with children
(isn't that what makes you a mother--children?)
Especially when it is late at night
and you have your purse on your arm--
because it keeps slipping from your shoulder
and your slip on shoes keep slipping off
(because they were not made to scooter)
should not be on a scooter.
I can only imagine how truly
RIDICULOUS
i looked--
(don't ask)
Never mind the fact how ridiculous i felt!
Needless to say
i was glad this little adventure was done
under the cover of darkness
and it will not be repeated anytime soon.

Do i get bonus points for not getting injured?

What?? No pictures? I bet these would have been a lot more exciting than the tire changing. By the way - I'm ready for a field trip anytime!!
