Bathtub Safety
Memories October 16th, 2007
So Jackie and I have started our registry and as we were going through the items we needed, the discussion of bathtub items came up. As we talked about things to help manage bathtub toys and other items that would be piling up in there. I had a sudden flashback to when I was a child and would take baths. I felt a sudden pain in my legs, arms and buttocks, and it was then I realized the horror of bath time! For whatever reason my mom would place cactus plants all around the rim of the bathtub. It was like a war zone, and my buttocks were the targets, I know Jenn can back me up on this one. We would argue who sat at what end, because one end had more of them then the other. So mom why did you have cactus all around the bathtub? I know they look fancy, but they sure were a pain in the bubbles. I for one am not going to keep this traditional alive.

Wow. Cactus in the bathtub in Ireland. That’s just odd. But Greg, how do you know that the cacti didn’t contribute to the fine upstanding lad you are now? Maybe you should keep the tradition alive - just in case.
