Happy Tiger Cat Fan with Sore Glutes!

Well it was a fun weekend!

I went to the game on Friday night and only stayed until 1/2 time because I knew I had to get up early for the race the next day and because Connor's friend Henry was falling asleep! :) When we left the score had it Tiger Cats 17, Edmonton 10 nd I said to Henry ... "you know, they're going to win tonight." So when I got home I turned on the radio while I got my stuff ready for monring ... and sure enought ... THEY DID! They TROUNCED THEM 40-14. Happy Tiger Cat fans for sure!

The funny part was during the 1st quarter when a black squirrel got on the field. The poor little thing must have been scared to death, it kept running back and forth. Then the stadium announcer started announcing "Squirrel is on the 30, 20, 10, 5, ... touchdown squirrel" and the crowd cheered. The Toronto Sun had a pic of it but I can't find it online.

Then on Saturay morning I headed out to Paris and did the Run (or in my case WALK) for the Toad. It ws fun but TOUGH! The race is at Pinehurst Conservation Area and it was up and down hills for the whole thing. My Glutes are sure tired / stiff today! We managed to cover 25K in just under 4 hours which was our goal ... we finished in 3:57:16 coming in 26 out of 64 female walkers! The site should have pics and I'll post 'em when they're up.

Then Sunday I went to church . I really, really like my church. I'm so glad I found it and it's cool 'coz I feel like I know people there. (A couple of the guys also go to the Ti-Cat games so we talk football). And I feel like I belong ... and that's a good feeling.

On Sunday it was communion. I always love communion but for some reason this Sunday it seemed special. I think it was because Lane said something along the lines that it is THIS BLOOD and THIS BODY that is the one and only reason that I'm saved. It rang soo true somehow. I remember another communion in another church some years ago where the pastor said communion is often seen as a sombre event when it should be celebrated because THIS is our gift!

As well 4 people signed up for H2O .. YIPPEEE! Though I was dopy and forgot my H20 Info sheet .. I did email it to them this morning.

After church we went to the AGO for the Catharine the Great show ... it was really something! One of the most fabulous things was the coronation coach check it out!

Then we went to my Mother-in-Law's for crock pot dinner. She's such a great cook and it was doubly nice not to have to cook!

Well ... back to work ... 5 days and counting to CHICAGO! Getting exicted!!!!!

Blessings
