The Final Harry Potter

I know that everyone else in the world polished off this book weeks ago, but I simply have not had the time to really get into it. Today though - was a different story. Its a gloomy, rainy day ... a perfect day to curl up with a book! I finally finished the last book in the Harry Potter series, and although there are many other things on my overall to-do list, I feel quite a sense of accomplishment :)

Today is a rest and stretch day, so I did a short program from OnDemand for yoga stretching. It was the longest 15 minutes of stretching ever - with poses that I definitely could not handle! I think I will still need to do some additional stretching today but at least I have some constructive marathon-related work under my belt for today.

Cubs
Today is the second (and last) day of the Air & Water Show. Yesterday, though gloomy, planes flew overhead all day. Today its been relatively quiet during the past few hours. I have a feeling the the storms have put quite a damper on todays show. We also have tickets for tonights Cubs vs Cardinals game, but right now its not looking like the weather is going to hold up. The weather is forcasting some heavy storms for this evening (probably not unlike what we have had on and off all day!) and the game isnt until 7:30. Looks like only time will tell - but right now I am not holding my breath.
