Jump Around

Its been a long busy week at work - sorry for no blog posts this week!  Boy, was I glad to get a chance to go to the Badger game yesterday!  I needed that!

The Badgers were playing #1, and undefeated, Ohio State.  There was a big buildup for the game.  During the football season, the Badgers had beaten #1, and undefeated, Ohio State.  Everyone was wondering if the basketball team could do it too. The crowd was loud and ready to see an upset.  The Badgers played really well in the first half and was only losing by two.  The second half started really poorly and we were eventually losing 47-32 - 15 points!  It looked like a loss for the Badgers.

But then, the Badgers made a 3!  And another!  And another!  Everyone was on their feet and cheering. It was the loudest I have ever heard the Kohl Center.  We tied it!  When they made another 3 pointer with 30 seconds to play, there was elation.  I was literally jumping up and down!  Amazing!  Improbable!  Unbelievable!  We won!

When you've had a tough week, let yourself do something fun!  Get carried away in it!  Jump Around!  Have fun!

Can you believe that the fans behind us wanted us to sit down!! Thankfully they left with two minutes left and we could join the celebration with the real fans. Where do you suppose they had to go that they would leave that game early????
