What am I going to do with my days and my nights? The OLYMPICS ARE OVER!! Like millions of people around the world, I love the Olympics. I get no sleep but it's worth it! There were a lot of highlights, including Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt, the gold-medal winning Canadian mens '8' rowing team, Simon Whitfield, the list goes on.
I'm especially happy for Perth's own Ian Millar, who FINALLY won just about the only award that eluded him, an Olympic medal. At the age of 61, Ian Millar joined Oxford Mills' Jill Henselwood, Eric Lamaze and Mac Cone to win the silver medal in team jumping. And I'll never forget the moment that Eric Lamaze won the gold medal for individual jumping, with his magnificent horse Hickstead. I haven't cried that much since I saw Seabiscuit.
Now that the Olympics are over, I guess I'll get back to my 'to do' list. After I watch 'Celebrity Family Feud'.
