rain boots

today was sort of an unexpected adventure...
that ended with a question that went something like this:
How does a smart, prepared girl wearing really cute rain boots still end up out in the rain with no umbrella?
Well, that would be because I don't have one.
And that would be because I have children who think they are magic wands and swords.
So I did have one, but they were broken when I walked out the door.
And that is why I froze all day soaking wet, and came home looking pretty much exactly like a drowned cat.
But My feet were dry.
At least I remembered the rain boots!
