I don't know how different Track is in elementary school, but I did track in high school and it wasn't just running and jumping. We had a lot of practices, we had a lot of meets, but also we had a pretty stringent workout schedule too. Maybe it's super laid back in elementary school, but it's definitely not "just show up and run"

Amen to that. @21stamps , one of my brothers used to run track in high school as well. As she mentioned above, it was more than occasional running around -- it was a "program". So I'm just throwing that in here to the discussion. Of course, we don't have a clue what T's track program encompasses, but here's two experiences with kids in track.

(I recall my brother telling me that it was after school, and the coach gave them orange (quarter slices) prior to running. It gave them something in their stomach so they wouldn't be hungry, but light enough not to upset it.)

That is way too cold. @MinnieM123 has to agree that that is too cold, right?

Nope. Cold is beautiful.

My DD has always said if you google your symptoms, you are dying or already dead on even the simplest symptoms. Yeah sometimes the internet is bad.

Meh. No guts, no glory. I read WebMD like the sports page. (Oh yah, I'm dead for sure. Died years ago, actually.)

I tried walking to the grocery store once. Nearly got hit by a car. That was the end of that.

Next time, try walking on the sidewalk instead of the street.

Did I tell you guys im addicted to THE MASKED SINGER? D:

We are too... I totally called the Dog last season. Hubby thinks the turtle is from this season is the singer from Green Day. And he totally got the female monster last night. (trying not to spoil in case people are still watching the old episodes.)

 

[MinnieM123]

Cool...!!!
Once I hipped the fam to it, they all jumped on it and thought it was sooooo cool...my pop in his element, captured on google earth street view...!!!!!

I thought (at least years ago) that people were supposed to be edited out of those street photos. (Not so much in busy city scenes, but at least on small roads, etc.) I love how your dad was thrilled to be in the photos! He's so funny!

If it was me, though, I wouldn't be too pleased. (Just wondering about the privacy restrictions. I have seen on G. Earth, familiar cars in driveways on various local streets, for example. But, I was a bit surprised to see they had not edited his image out. Perhaps they have some sort of "distance" filter now, that might only edit out, actual "up close" photos?

@Rista1313 Is your niece who cheers going to Atlanta this weekend?

I haven't heard anything, but I never do until my SIL posts on Facebook, "We are on our way to xxx"!

By the way -18 this morning but real feel with windchill is -29. And our power which includes our heat was out for 3 hours, it came back on at 4:30am, so it was a bit chilly in our house this morning too.

How awful, but at least the power came back in a relatively short span of time.

It's 17 degrees out this morning. I'm pretty sure it's the coldest day we've had to far this winter. I keep expecting winter to hit but it doesn't hit too hard.

Yesterday we came home to a snowman our neighbor made for us. We decorated it and A named it Snowman Rob.

She was sooooo mad when we got home though. She yelled at me MOM!! YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO MAKE SNOWMEN WITHOUT ME!!

the dog snuggled under the covers and kept me warm. Luckily the power did come back on and it is supposed to be 33 tomorrow.

not for sure about the actual temp in the house, we keep the heat set at about 68-70, so it probably dropped about 10-15 degrees.

I am south central PA. It was 31 here this morning. Tomorrow morning it will be 17 at 8 am. It will be the coldest day of our winter. The temps will warm up Sunday though.
