A Monday Afternoon

Two longtime girlfriends spend 3 weeks trying to get together. Between both of their part-time work schedules, husbands each with their own business and 4 children under the age of 5 each on different nap and feeding schedules, this is no easy task. Today a window of opportunity arose and a playdate at the park was arranged. While driving it started to sprinkle, then steadily rain and then downpour. One girlfriend called the other and laughed at the misfortune of it all. Since a date at the park was now out of the question and both were on the road with kids in tow, instead they met at the local wholesale club and did their grocery shopping.
