There would be water involved and I needed the dreaded (horrible,terrifying) bathing suit. Off we went as last year's was not only hideous but much too big for me now (yay!). Found one I LOVED but they didn't have my size (of course) but 90 dreaded minutes later I hit the jackpot (if you can call it that). I was content.
So we debated...waterpark (did I REALLY want to be seen in a bathing suit for 8 hours? Umm, no.), Parc Safari or Granby Zoo? Granby won and what a great day it was!! There was water involved but my fears were groundless. I was not the most pitiful person there. By a long shot. If you're ever feeling bad about yourself, visit a waterpark. All shapes and sizes in all their glory. Beautiful, large women in APPROPRIATE bathing attire and others, not so much. Clearly people are more daring than I am. OY!
I also made a deal with myself before leaving. I would NOT be THAT person. THAT person who takes the photos but doesn't get in them. I did NOT want to be that person. So I wasn't. I was silly, I was giddy, I was IN there, I was HAPPY. So suffer through my shots...

Silly and in all my glory! Mom, we're in public!! Love my photo bomber babe in the back, lol! End of day, wet and tired. Can we leave now? I call her Bessie. I love Bessie. She smiled for me in another pic. I'm not sharing that one - it was MY smile, just for me :-P |
Silly, happy and exhausted - take your pick.
I have to tell you that when you throw your insecurities to the wind, it's freeing! New motto: Throw insecurities to the wind!!
