Christine: That was sweet of DD19 to say that. I can imagine how good it felt. I take a multivitamin and an extra calcium in the morning. I am thinking it is all the salt from yesterday. It is still a little sore today, but I didn't feel it when running today. I am icing it right now and drinking lots of water. I have been looking at bananas rather fondly at the grocery store lately. Maybe I need to pick some up. That was a good idea to take a rest day today. How fun to go to a black tie dinner, I've never been to one. Looking forward to hearing how it went.
Cathy: I hope you aren't too bummed about your team. There is always next season. Have you read the book Freedom Writer's Diary by Erin Gruwell? It was later made into a movie. I just saw on Yahoo! news that a teacher was fired for using that book with her class. It was a video and our sound on the computer is not working right now for some reason so I can't get the story. I may have to turn on CNN, which I never watch. I went to the Michigan Reading Association conference 5 years ago and she was the keynote speaker. She was great and even broke down in tears telling the story. She could barely speak at the end she was so emotional. I have read the book and watched the movie (DH even had tears in his eyes) and I think this seems to be ridiculous. I will have to find out more about exactly what happened. Just kind of fired up about it.
Have a great evening all.
