"Relay for Life"
Last night myself and a few of the elementary school parents participated in the annual "Relay for Life," a 12-hour overnight walk-a-thon (6pm to 6am) to help raise money and awareness for the American Cancer Society. District-wide, more than $70,000 was raised. Our little team raised the most of any single organization at last night's event, around $4,000.

It was 40-something degrees out last night, and the wind whipped at us non-stop. There were teenagers passed out all over the field, but the adults kept walking. Must have been all of the coffee and conversation.

But, if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to bed now.
