Takin' it to the Limit

So I got a wild hair the other day when I read somewhere that rollerskating burns like 800 calories an hour.  I remembered how much I used to love skating and decided to post on our community's Freecycle message board to see if anyone had some skates to give away.  In the fortuitous way that freecycling can sometimes be, about 20 minutes later I got an email from a person, not 8 blocks from my house saying Yes!  They had some old skates collecting dust, exactly my size.   I love them so much and am guessing they are maybe about as old as I am :-)...

And so last night found me clumsily rolling back and forth in front of my house, using my son as a balancing tool.  It was the most fun I've had in days.

Happy weekend, y'all.
