Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Middle Ground. I'm Caroline. And I'm Joe. And happy Monday. You guys will be listening to this on Monday. I know. It's happy Friday for us. Yeah. But Monday for you guys guys that's the weirdest part of podcasting for me

yeah it's like in the future yeah I feel like we're in the future we get so deep on it we're like

hello from us in the future yeah hello from us on Friday to you on Monday or whatever day

you're listening to this.

Oh my gosh.

We're going to get right into our grounding moments.

Joe, do you want to go first?

Do you want me to go first?

You go first because I've not thought of mine yet.

Okay, so my grounding moment from the week is I went to Blake Street this past week, which is our fitness and wellness center and in my area where I live.

So it has a pool and like most of you know, or if you don't know, I used to be a swimmer growing up,

and I've always wanted to get back into it.

I've been out of the pool competitively for about two years now.

And so when we went on, I went with you joe when was that wednesday wednesday and i met

this guy there and he was like i am into triathlons like i do all this stuff i would love for you to

come swim with us monday wednesday friday i was like oh my gosh like i've been looking for a group

it's just the two did you go this morning no i didn't go this. I was like, oh my gosh, like I've been looking for a group. It's just the two. Did you go this morning? No, I didn't go this. Okay. I was like, I'm starting

impressed next week. No, I did not go this morning. I know. And so I'm really excited to have like a

group to go with and to hold me accountable. And it's just two guys. They're probably in their 50s. Mike and Scott, which probably aren't listening to this, but thanks Mike and Scott. Shout out Mike and Scott. You made Caroline's week. That's a big deal. Yeah. What about your grounding moment? So for me, my grounding moment this week, I would have to default back to Wednesday also. We got to go to Blake Street and meet with our team

and have breakfast, which is the first time that I've sat with a group of people and had a meal

in quite a few months. We did social distance while we were eating. We were apart from each other

still. But that just gave me kind of a sense of normal.
