Have you been watching the Olympics?

It’s been on almost non-stop at our house. I personally can’t get enough of it and my athletically minded family is all over it as well. My oldest and my youngest are both chomping at the bit waiting for the track events to start as that’s what they were both involved in.

I think it’s just so much fun to watch all the sports because we’re seeing events that we wouldn’t normally watch, like fencing, water polo, sculling. dressage. I could go on. Oh, and those cycling events over the past few days??

MAN!!

It was so very painful to watch the riders fall off their bikes and into those elevated curbs. And that Dutch woman who crashed in the rain yesterday? I had a hard time catching my breath after watching that live.

Well, live to me, but really taped. She just wasn’t moving and I just started praying that she’d be ok.
Then this morning, come to hear Bob Costas say that her poor mother was watching the race on TV IN THE NETHERLANDS and on her birthday, no less!!! 

I teared up when I heard that because as absolutely horrible as it was to watch the event unfold having no relation or emotional tie to this woman, my heart just completely ached for her mother and family. As Annemiek van Vleuten lay there motionless I’m sure it ripped her mother’s heart out not knowing if her daughter was ok.

Fortunately, from what I’ve heard, she was conscious shortly after and suffered some fractures and a concussion. Sending prayers and positive thoughts for her complete and speedy recovery.

I absolutely LOVE my slow cooker. There are times when I’ll use it a lot and then times that it will just sit for the longest time and I think darn, why haven’t I been using that thing? That and my George Foreman Grill are my two favorite portable kitchen appliances.

They both just make dinner so easy, especially during the week when it can get a bit crazy with appointments and activities. Am I right?
