Happy Birthday Pittsburgh!
Today is the 250th birthday celebration for the city of Pittsburgh! WOW, I can't imagine what it was like, here, in 1758. I'm glad we got to see the remains of Fort Pitt, in downtown, before the historical society buried it, this year, for its own protection.
Tonight, there is going to be the biggest fireworks display the area has ever seen. You may even see part of it on the national news because there will be 17 launch sites, a waterfall off the West End Bridge, followed by a "secret" finale. If you've ever seen Zambelli fireworks before, you know they will be spectacular.
Today was tax school. We had a quiz and I missed one question because I didn't read it thoroughly.
I do that all the time. Next Saturday is the mid-term exam so I better slow down and read! The graphics mid-term exam starts Wednesday so I'll probably take it Thursday to leave enough time to study for tax class. Already turned in the logo for graphics. For the drawing mid-term, I only have one drawing left to do. Haven't really decided what it's going to be however I'm leaning toward a drawing of a statue of an Egyptian cat. DH has been drawing all day and doing a mighty fine job - a grapefruit on a table that actually looks 3-D and a terracotta warrior (he likes Asian art). The rest of the weekend will probably be artsy fartsy for both of us.

Took all vitamins and drank 64 oz water. Walked around the mall a little at lunch. Started the 5 mile run training today (was too lazy on Tuesday or Thursday to do it). 45 minutes running equaled 2.63 miles (treadmill). Steps at the time of this writing: 11913 (57 aerobic minutes; 4.88 miles)
Looking forward to breakfast with DH at Casey's tomorrow, finishing the laundry, and maybe taking a nap! We'll see.
Have a pleasant Sunday. Go Steelers!
