The Big 3-0

Goodbye, twenties. Hello, thirties. Andy and I rode our bikes 30 miles on Saturday in honor of my third decade of life.

Today I took the day off from work, slept in until 8:00 and then went to my YMCA, where my buddies sang happy birthday to me (twice!) and made me wear a battery-operated light flashing tiara. I liked it so much, I wore it on a few errands after I finished my workout.

My triathlon is this Sunday, and I'm pretty pumped about it. There are 650 participants in the race, so many that I actually received an "athletes' parking pass" this week. Oh my. As long as I don't get kicked in the face during the lake swim, I'll be happy.

Not much else is happening here. Fall semester begins Aug. 15, so I'm trying to catch up on all the work I put on the back burner during the summer session. Trent's still enjoying his work on the Braves' grounds crew, although July was pretty exhausting--longer hours than normal, plus three concerts at the stadium.

Hope everyone is well. Love ya!

Happy Birthday! Wearing a battery-operated light flashing tiara takes the cake! I like it.
You have a lot going on in your life as usual. I can't believe there are 650 entries in the triathlon. Good luck! I, too, hope a big foot in the lake does not cream you. And then there is the start of a new semester. The thirties are looking quite a bit like the twenties. But now you own a flashing tiara.
