Even worse, cannot ride my bike.

Good day: Have got my goodies almost ready to send to my SS, hope she will like everything.

Today was going to be my cyber shopping day for socks for my SS. I was thinking warm wool socks as she lives in a cooler state..what to my wishes appear, but from TE a sale on such the things I was looking for. So I called TE regarding some questions on these ( Molly was very helpful) and can't wait to place my order tomorrow..now the big decision is what color? HHMMmmm!

i got the email of the sale too... and i just sent my gift out to my SS today. hopefully she likes it. i was actually able to shop for it in person instead of online. its a great accomplishment for me!

I got that email too. Seeing as my SS won't be seeing cold anytime soon, I picked up some socks locally. And a record for me.... I mailed it today!! I usually mail it the last week of the month. Of course she may not get it until the last week of the month!

Mailed my secret sister's package off today!
Most appropriately, I brought it to the P.O. on my bicycle.

Yeh Lisa! Supporting the cause! I'm jealous cuz I might get killed if I try to ride my bike to the PO. Most roads around where I live aren't so biker friendly.

HOWEVER - We went to Performance Bike in Hotlanta today, and I picked up the last of my SS's gift and I will be mailing it off tomorrow.

YEH! This is fun

You know in November I will finally be able to do this!! We are moving to a quieter town and the post office will be a short bike ride away. I might need to start researching some racks/panniers. Of course I can only imagine the look on the small Texas town's locals when they see the new resident running errands on her bike for the pure joy of it! I think it would be something like this:

Aggie, YOU may also be surprised. I live in a verrrry small town. It is rather dangerous riding to the PO as I'm expected to wave to every car, (because they always honk and wave) I'm always given the right-of-way at the town's only 4 way stop, and you are treated with utmost courtesy. You may have to have several conversations AT the post office about how great/terrible the weather is for a bike, or every time you walk into a store, the cashier will ask "Did you ride your bike today?" Eventually some want to know where you purchased your bike, what kind do you think THEY should get, and more often than not people tell me how great it is that I'm always on it, they wish they had that kind of energy...Yup, kind of crazy here in smallville.

No, they'll be secretly jealous. and will wish THEY had a bike and were free spirits enough to get in shape, save gas, and go forth on their OWN POWER!

Hey Trek, I saw those wool socks too, so I got my SS her socks and ordered me a pair too, those knee high stripacinno(sp?) socks, I needed those last saturday morning on my club ride because my lower legs were cold even w/ tights on. They're a little high for one pair, but I said, it's only one pair and they feel wonderful. So if anyone else has their eye on them, they're worth it. Jennifer
