A miserable New Years Day
Posted by Kevin on January 1, 2012
We were supposed to be going for a walk in Richmond Park this afternoon but just as we were about to leave, my wife mentioned it was raining. Now, being the eternal optimist, I assumed it was that dreary kind of drizzle you usually get so when my daughter said she wanted to go anyway, I said I would take while my wife would stay with my son, who absolutely hates rain.
When I say walk, what I meant was that we were walking but my daughter wanted to ride her bike. I am a bad father because I still have not gone out with her enough on her bike for her to remove her stabilizers. She’s eight. So I went out the back door to get the bike and found it tipping down. Cue apologies and sobbing.
So now we are all dressed up with nowhere to go. Brilliant start to the New Year.
