Is it wrong...

...to feel like grabbing my perky 12 year old aqua fitness instructor's leg and pulling her into the pool tonight

???

OK, so maybe she's closer to 20 than 12, but she's too damn perky, sprightly, giggly - I could go on!!! Am I just too old and jaded to remember being so energetic - PROBABLY, but for goodness sake girl, some of us are worn out at the end of the year, and could live without the "Noodle Nazi" on our cases!

To add insult to injury, she called Mum and I "kooky kick boarders" with a cute little giggle and a crack of her whip!

Then she MADE us go out of our comfort zone in the deep end, into shallow water and she MADE me hurt my dodgy foot again!!!

Do I sound exhausted and up to my eyeballs with 2008 -

you betcha I am! After all, 2009 brings the promise of a new beginning, a fresh start...and the down hill slide to the

big 40!!!!

"She's sounding a bit 'Grinch like'", you may say, and to that I reply...

BAH HUMBUG!!!!

On a happier note...

Tonight was the Prospect Fire Bridage's lolly scramble night!
