Did yoga when I came home from school.  The 3 kids joined me (I pick up my nephew from school.  He's almost like one of my kids).  Eli got bored after 5 minutes and then wandered around trying to get the other two to stop.  Caleb got bored after about 20 minutes.  Spencer did pretty much the whole thing with me.  He sat out for a few minutes when the poses got hard for him.

Then I went out to the KC's for dinner, where I was the hero of the night.  They do this monthly drawing.  If your number is drawn, you win a certain amount of money.  If you aren't there to collect, you only win half.  My husband had to work and I really didn't want to go, but I was told I had to.  I almost didn't go, but I did, and...we won!  $1710.  Now, don't get too excited for me.  We split it 5 ways (my husband's brothers do everything together.  They each get a number and they always split).  But still.  A bit over $300  If I hadn't gone, it would have been 1/2.

Normally my mantra is "I hate the KC's," but today I love it.  The love won't last long.

And then I came home and did the gazelle for my 7 cross training miles.
