I have been watching them incessantly for the past 16 days. Even when I was in France, I found the channel on my hotel room's TV that showed the Olympics--there was even a second channel that showed it in German in case you didn't understand French. I'm not staying up to watch the closing ceremony tonight, but you can bet that I'll be checking all tomorrow to see if they have a recap on the BBC.
We had Sunday night dinner at my place today, but I had barely any food. I ended up making pasta and some cookies, Alice brought scones, Courtney brought a pie, and Miriam and Jackie brought nothing. We didn't stuff ourselves like usual, but it was still fun. Alice cut Miriam's hair while we watched the Olympic men's hockey final, then she cut Courtney's hair again (she did it a couple days ago, but took off a lot more this time).
Besides that, the rest of my day was quite tame. I got up late-ish and read my book while watching TV and eating breakfast in my PJs, then worked on some homework for Celtic Civ while baking cookies. Really not an exciting day...I never left the house except to go on the deck briefly.
I have a lot of errands to run tomorrow, and since I have not even enough food for lunch tomorrow, I need to do some grocery shopping really badly. I've got this whole big list that I'll have to find and then lug home. I'm excited to have milk again and maybe even bread--oh the shock!
I'm still feeling under the weather with this cold and blisters and all, so I'm going to head to bed. Good night.

Hi! Loved the pictures and descriptions. Last night's blog was awesome too! I have recorded the Olympics and can save them if you'd like. I haven't watched all of them. I've been working on Brian's graduation quilt. Only needs binding and label! Have a great day and watch out for those swans!
