I had to look at the definition of practical to get some inspiration on this one. I have conflicted behaviour in this area. Sometimes like this, I help the kids change and get sand off their bodies and sand off their clothes before before getting in the car and going home, I am very practical and fit most of the definitions 1 through 7. At other times I just pile them in the car and go home and face a big clean up everywhere and my wife thinks that I meets definition 8 a practical disaster area.

We will be doing this more now that the weather is getting hot. Which practical part of me will win out?

Happy Hunting Everyone!
