Sports is so, so often focused on the men, so it's great to see that changing, especially when the women are doing so well.Mason T.

Wishing her great success!<br /><br />There wasn't too much o the Olympics here except for those venues Egyptians entered in - those were things like weighlifting and judo. Sadly, no coverage of the swimming or the gymnastics (which is my favorite part).<br /><br />Congrats to Elizabeth on her release and to Jess & Bish for winning your audiobook!<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735576044552810103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-2486808957349382362016-08-19T22:12:51.914-04:002016-08-19T22:12:51.914-04:00Hi Alex!

In addition to classes, I just went to Surf City a few weeks ago. Whew! <br /><br />I am very excited about Rogue One. I had no idea Jimmy Smits was back. I haven't seen him forever.

I meant to drop by sooner to leave a comment. I haven't seen much of the Olympics having been at camp. What I have seen has been pretty amazing. Of course, there has also been the disappointing in the form of the boys who made up the fake robbery story. What were they thinking???? Ah well. <br /><br />As for my IWSG post... yes, I might just need you to put that together for me. hahahaha.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-77824673565112351092016-08-19T18:32:38.922-04:002016-08-19T18:32:38.922-04:00Wait...
