SAW SOME VOLLEYBALL LAST NIGHT

Well last night I went up saw the Colonials volleyball team in action for the 1st time this year, the Colonials boys team lost to Matoaca 3-2 while the CH girls team won 3-0. They had a good crowd at the game for volleyball, the only time they will have more people is when they play Thomas Dale. Last night we went to Cracker Barrel for supper and when we got up to leave I got a cramp in my left leg, I couldn't walk for about 5 minutes and it was extremely painful. Andrew will be running for Chester Middle School today in a cross country meet, for those of you who don't know Andrew is on the Eagles cross country team. I guess he got his speed from Keith. It is going to be very humid today here in CH, there is a tropical air mass that has set up over us but there is not going to be allot of rain with this system. By the way today is the 1st full day of Fall. MICKEY

Don’t Give Up
While many people know of coping strategies that can help with stress, as with diets and exercise programs, the most successful individuals are those who maintain the effort for the long term. Don’t give up on your situation; don’t stop working toward getting through it. Trust the process.

Do Lunch
Because restaurants experience much lower volume at lunch, lunch offerings are much cheaper than the dinner menu. And this doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be stuck with sandwiches and burgers – many restaurants offer an abbreviated version of dinner menus for lunch, allowing you to enjoy your favorite dishes for as much as half the dinner price. Also, if the restaurant is less busy, you are also likely to get better and faster service.
