It's official!

I am done with Physical Therapy! What a long 4 3/4 months it has been! Holly and Brian even gave me a certificate of completion, because I was so disappointed I didn't graduate a few weeks ago! I'm gong to miss seeing them, but I am so happy my back is healed, I'm running again, and in a month now I can start hitting golf balls and work my way up to tennis again! Instead of 6 months, if I go slowly, I could be back swinging the racket in about 3 months! Hurray!

I went for my run this morning. I did not get in any cardio the past two days, and I could tell in my pace. It slowed just a bit. I also did not fuel up properly, even though I had a nice carb dinner last night for energy. Fuel is the key to the right work out for sure! But the run was nice and I'm ready to take on the day!

Which is a playdate with Carson and Amy and also bonus Megan while her mom goes to the doctor! Then tonite I have Art Masterpiece training for Caden's school! I am so excited to do it! The PTO has planned a lot of great events this year already from Doughnuts with Daddy, to a movie night, "Speedracer", a skate night!, and the annual Fall Festival! We also are having a Veteran's day celebration in honor of all active and nonactive military people. What a great and neat idea! Details to come, don't want to spoil any surprises. ;-)

And while we are on the subject, Caden is being recognized on Friday morning in the Character Counts program for his school. It's the first recognition of the year and it is Respect! Only a few students all year will be chosen for different things like respect, citizenship, etc. Mike and I were so impressed and just so proud of him to get this! So he will have breakfast with the principal on Friday morning, get his picture taken for the 08-09 Character Counts wall, and a certificate! Okay this is when I would love to scrapbook! Maybe I am finally inspired! ;-) I'll make sure Mike takes his camera! Caden is all about eating doughnuts before school!!

I can not wait for Saturday night! My friend Jen and I are double dating at a place called Quiessence! We are doing their Brick Oven Table which is a 2-3 hour dinner and they cook specifically for us! They asked for our likes and dislikes! I'm just so thrilled that Jen is such a major foodie like myself and now we have friends to enjoy eating at new places and enjoying fabulous company! Thanks Leah and Hannah for letting us get out together! You girls are the best! So that's about all we have planned for the holiday weekend! Saturday can not get here any faster ;-)
