today is sunday so it is a rest day for me. i am reading my book and playing on the computer. i just found some allergy medicine in my things. too bad it took me all week to find it – i didn’t sleep much this week because my nose was so stuffed up. i have been training with the number one german guy for the last few days. he is good and we have worked on my gut wrench a lot.  tomorrow i go to cologne where germany is having a one week national team camp. it is close to dortmund so i may go straight to dortmund after the camp. i am not sure if there will be people training there yet so i haven’t finalized my plans.

i go home in 21 days. i am looking forward to sleeping in my own bed again. however, i won’t be home for long as i am scheduled to go to colorado springs, where the US team is having a camp, on july 6.

i am almost finished my last book. i think i have one or two movies left to watch. i may be posting a lot more often over the next 3 weeks. murray comes back on thursday. this is good because my body needs some work and it is nice to have someone to talk to.
