How to burn 10,000 calories in 45 minutes.
Get the kids dressed in their snowsuits.
Calories burned = 200
Get the baby in the stroller, get Tyler outside, pull sled down from 5th shelf in the garage
Calories burned = 100
Have the following conversation:
Tyler: "Mommy, I wanna ride in my caaarrrrrrrr!"
Me: "Tyler, I'm already pushing the stroller, I can't push the car too."
Tyler: "But Mommy, I wanna ride my caaarrrrrrr!"
Me: "Tyler, I have to push Connor, can you walk with us?"
Tyler: "Moommmyyyyy! I wanna ride, in my caaarrrrrrrr!"
Me: "Come on Tyler, let's go, you can walk, and when we get back, you can have a pop!"
Tyler: "I don't wanna walk, I wanna ride in my caa- oh, can I ride in my sled?"
Me: "Tyler, how on EARTH am I supposed to pull you in the sled on the sidewalk while I'm pushing the stroller?"
What a stupid question on my part! You know how - you just pull the freaking sled on the cement!
Calories Burned = 9,700
I swear to God the neighbors were probably laughing their asses off! Here I am, pushing the stroller on the sidewalk, trying to keep it in the clearest path possible (some sidewalks haven't been shoveled yet), and at the same time, trying to keep in a path with lots of snow for the sled, that I have tied around my arm, and am pulling behind me. Do you think I could possibly make this up?
Can you imagine the sound we were making, walking down the sidewalk, pulling that sled on full cement????
