d - Yuck - being sick sucks and esp taking meds - prednisone can have some pretty major side effects so just be careful and keep an eye on your self over-all. This next week sounds busy for you too, don't over do it!
tc - that's so cool re: piano!!!
My week last week was GREAT!
- started my 4 day work week with bike ride to K's school with her and pick up after school - best Monday ever :-)
- only ran twice and H's running career is officially over - she's gone very much senior on us and I'm still not back into the habit of running at lunch (plus it's been stinkin hot this past week)
- football occupied most of the past week - one practice then the provincial championship tourney all weekend long in Kelowna - it was 35degC - the kids did fantastic considering the heat - 8 games on Saturday and 3 on Sunday. Finished up 14th in the province out of almost 50 teams so that was a great finish for a team with more than half being complete rookies to the sport. So it was a lot of standing around in the sun, on the sidelines, trying to not get burnt/heatstroke, and keeping the kids going. We were all so tired but so happy. On the drive home Sunday, I found myself actually missing the kids, realizing that there's no more practices made me sad. It's amazing how you have to really get to know a child, their strengths and weaknesses, how to try to motivate them, how to try to get the best out of them. I feel really honoured to have been able to get to know all of these kids.

I have a skills clinic I'm helping with in 2 weeks, then that'll be it for football for a while - dryland training starts for speedskating this week so I'll see if I can get one session in. That, plus three rides, and two runs will be about it for me this week. The house is being painted this week so it'll be a bit of a gong show around here.
