I went snowboarding again today. My legs were still a bit stiff from all the Irish Dancing on St. Patty’s (we performed on Concrete floors which gives me shin splints ;p) It was a pretty great day! There was some fresh powder from yesterday and it was mostly sunny so I got a little suntan, too.  I have had a love-hate relationship with snowboarding. I’m not especially good at it and one frustrating thing has been my weight. It is difficult to do up your bindings when touching your toes is hard and when you fall a lot it’s hard to push yourself back up. I have noticed a huge difference this year. Just the 20 pounds has made a world of difference in being able to comfortably strap my bindings. My arms are also much less sore. I’m getting better so I fall less which means getting up less often. Overall today was a pretty great day!
