The last few weeks, the Y hadn't been very busy, but that all changed this week.
It started on Sunday night, the Superbowl. I wasn't planning on watching it, but some friends invited me at the night youth church service. I figured I'd go, even though it started at midnight, and I had work the next morning. I had loads of fun (except there were british announcers, and none of the "Super Bowl ads") There were about 10 people there, 3 were Americans. Most of the Irish guys just made fun of American football the whole time. I really didn't care who won, but I found myself rooting for the Giants most of the time, I had a blast.
Monday morning I was surprisingly rested. The Key group, the one we are going to take on the bivi out (my last blog), was here for their last training time before the bivi. I helped lead a session for them in the morning afternoon and evening everyday during the week. I even had my first assessment, and I passed (It was over knots and harnesses). I was at the center from 9AM until around 10PM. It was a really long week, and by the end most of the staff, including me, was worn out, but it was a really good week. We aren't going to be that busy for the next few weeks, but we will be a bit busy. After working all week, I just wanted to relax on Saturday. I slept in, and then tried getting a hold of the tennis club (which I've been trying to do for a few weeks). I actually got a hold of someone, and he asked me to come down to the courts to hit around a bit. I said sure, and I was excited to get to finally play some. I stepped out of the door in my full winter gear, and tennis racquet, and suddenly realized that if was really warm out. It felt like summer, or at least spring. I went back in and changed into shorts and a tee-shirt, in the middle of winter! I hit around for a while and he invited me to play on Monday night. After that I decided I couldn't wast such a nice day, and went out and through the frisbee around with Cailyn in the park some. It was a brilliant weekend. This week looks to be just as exciting, if not as busy.

Great to hear that all that training was not wasted. I am glad the group got to come and experience that. Great about tennis. Enjoy your nice weather and playing outdoors. Tell Catelyn I said HI, and Kevin too.
