Yesterday...

Clearly it's been a super weekend. Saturday we started the stretch run with $527.10 and we've steamrolled through the last two days to put us back into positive territory. We'll stay in the black for the meet since our total plays today won't be enough to drain the account under $1000 even if we lose-out.
