Hello my Poke-riffic little friends!
You guessed it; I caught the Pokémon fever. Why? Because there is a new free app called Pokémon GO the just got released. Long story short, you walk around the real world and find and capture Pokémon in the virtual world with your phone. Awesome!!! And not just because it is another Pokémon game, but because instead of sitting at a desk or couch, I get my butt moving in search of the elusive Pokémon. Not just the Pokémon either. You need to find places in the real world that are shops, item drop places, and even gyms that you can battle. My brain is about to explode because that is SO COOL!
And guess what? My KIDS think it is super cool! And that means not just me moving, but the rug rats as well! My 17 year old downloaded it before I even managed to. My 5 year old is going to explode if we don't get out today and try it out. (Please rain go away! For my sanity PLEASE at least take a 15 minute break tonight!!!) And the youngest, well, if his brother thinks it's the bees knees so will he!
So what does that mean to me? It means more exercise and more family time. For now, the lonely walk, even if punctuated by zombie chases, is on hold. On hold so I can explore the city with my children in search of new Pokémon. We get out together, we get exercise together, we get to explore places they (and probably me) have never been before. What a wonderful idea! And I plan to take that idea and turn it into the most fun my family has had all summer!
Wait! Was that a Pokémon that just showed up on my scanner?!
Whoa! Gotta go! (Come back here Mr. Pokémon! I just need a moment of your time......)
