You may recall last year Kyle jumping (more like running) in the frozen lake for a fundraiser for Special Olympics. This year, his work didn't participate but our friend, Helen asked us if we would be willing to jump in with her. Foolishly thinking the weather would be as fantastic as it was last year, we agreed... boy were we wrong!!! It was FREEZING this year... it was starting to rain/snow when we all headed outside, and it was like a madhouse! We didn't jump in the lake like last year, but the outdoor pool. The worst part for me was that the pool was 11 ft deep so my plan was to jump in, hit the bottom and push myself up as fast as possible. It never even occurred to me that I wouldn't touch the bottom, and when I realized that, I started kicking like crazy!! But, you're legs are in some sort of "cold shock" and they didn't want to move either! We all made it out ok and to be honest, I'm glad we did it. I don't have a "bucket list" but if I did, I would cross that off!
