Weekend Updates!

I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend! The weather couldn't have made for a more perfect weekend here in the 'ham! I spent Saturday by the pool, Saturday night with one of my best friends, LK, and of course spent all of today poolside.  I've made lots of new fun friends at the pool and hope to see them more throughout the week! My last day of work will be Thursday and I'm looking forward to a six day pool binge after that!  I'm trying to enjoy my last week here in Birmingham; I'm excited about what is to come but it's so bittersweet considering that there is a lot that I will miss living in a bigger city.  
On another note, have you been keeping up with all of the madness that is March Madness?
I had to leave the pool early today to get back in time to watch the Ohio State game, so maybe it's safe to say that it is becoming a bit of an obsession.  I was doing so well (in my bracket, that is) until Pittsburgh lost.  It's a shame I didn't stick to my original picks.  Overall (excluding Pitt's loss), I would say that I'm doing pretty good considering that this is my first year to make a bracket.
And on the running scene, I'm supposed to be running a 5k on Saturday...for those of you who aren't mathematicians, that is approximately five days away. My knees are just now to the point that I'm able to walk without being in excruciating pain.  I'll admit that I'm a little hesitant to start running again but I'm going to give it a try tomorrow and see how it goes! If I have to walk all three miles, I will walk three miles.  I've come to learn that my knees really just aren't worth risking.
I've got a meeting tomorrow and Tuesday morning at work and it should (and I repeat should) be an easy week after that! Here's to hoping you all have a wonderful week!
