I hit another goal on Saturday in circus class – I did a drop for the first time! In the picture above I’m throwing myself forward as I let go, the fabric unwinds from my legs and I fall a few feet toward the ground before catching myself by the backs of my knees. It was a total adrenaline rush – I had a circus buzz for a good hour.

After class I packed up the pup and headed to my parents. I swam in the pool for the first time this summer. It was so cold, but I did a few laps anyway.
