Closing Ceremonies of London 2012 are over. I feel bereft. 17 days of believing in the best of sport, and the best of humanity. Someday, we'll hold onto that energy longer.
I didn't finish the quilt. I was derailed by emergency bathroom renovations. I had a couple of bad days feeling sorry for myself. Olympic athletes put that back into perspective. No matter how disappointing their day, or their finish, they pick themselves back up and complete their task.
Think of my quilt as a marathon. I may finish last but I will finish.
And once the floors are replaced, I will return to writing. During the Beijing Olympics, we had a Writing Olympics. Many words were written, pages turned in. Maybe that could be my paralympic gold.
What about you? Are you going to continue to enjoy London 2012 and cheer on the para-athletes?

Ah yes, the Writing Olympics. Hard to believe that was 4 years ago. I think I still have my "medal". Keep plugging along, you'll get there.
