It's a rare Saturday-Friday!

It really is a GOOD Friday! I don't have to work! It's a very rare day when school is closed AND my work is closed too. Usually I have to work a full day on no-school days.

Even more GOOD, Jim is off work! His department relies on the stock market, which is CLOSED! So we have Jim home, the kids home, and me home!

Commence...CHORES!

In sporting news, Paul had a track meet yesterday, which I was unable to go to (because it was in Stillwater and I was in Prior Lake working). He ran both the 1600 and the 3200 (first time this season). He did ok in the 1600, but got a personal best in the 3200: 10:37! He says the coach is now going to put him in the 3200 more often. He's still the top guy in the 1600 too. Yay for Paul!

I have no pictures of the race (having not attended) and usually I would just "borrow" some from the woman who goes to all the meets and takes many metric tonnes of pictures, but she hasn't put them out yet.

While I wait, I might as well make out the chore lists for today! I'm all tingly with excitement!

It is also Earth Day today...

Yay for Paul! I ran today, but it was on the treadmill and I alternated between walking and running every 5 min.

Hooray for a day off! You certainly deserve it. Don't do chores though. Boo! Have fun. I know how it goes though. I, too, have been doing chores all day trying to catch up from the week of having activities every single night. I need Paul. My floors really need to be vacuumed, and I can't muster up enough motivation to get it done. Eventually...

Hey 10:37 is a good time for the 3200M. My son had run those events in the past. Nice job.

yay for days off. I am glad it was to your liking and benefit. I hope you have a cleaner house now than you did when you woke up. If, not, it is only because everyone was home. And the best thing is...you still have Saturday!!!
