The Daily Dash: May 13 2016 {Friday the 13th}
IN THE NEWS:
* Trump & Ryan meeting “encouraging”, but no endorsement…yet
* Obama encourages public schools to offer transgender restrooms
* Thousands of checked bags missed flights
* Invictus games come to an end
* Blues to face Sharks in Western Conference Finals
IN MY LIFE:
* So although I’m feeling better, it might be safe to say I’m not in my ‘right mind’ just yet. I took my son to the dentist yesterday and it turns out the appointment is actually today. Oh well – good thing it’s only 3 minutes away.
Interestingly enough, my friend Rachelle messaged me last night to let me know Lester Holt was actually doing a story on the rise in strokes amongst young people (28-45…young for strokes). While I didn’t have a stroke (I had a TIA), it brought up the exact point I realized…those of us younger than 45 don’t even know the signs of a stroke, much less expect a major health event like that to happen to us. The best way to combat it – other than practicing good health and rest – is with knowledge.

And let’s just say, thank God it’s Friday! After getting home from the library last night, the kids and I spent 2 hours on the couch reading and I daresay, it was so much fun! Lots of activities planned for tomorrow, so we’re looking forward to another chill night tonight. Hope you all have an amazing weekend too!
