    True, but I did not want to rush the young couple into anything.

    I'm in a different state now, though, and I need to get a new crank before spring (I can't change it myself), so gonna have to face the music sooner or later. In fact, I'd rather visit the dentist than a bike shop. Even the mere thought of having to go in there makes me extremely nervous.
    I'll go in with you OTG. You've met me in person now. I'm sure you've figured out that I can be rather outspoken when needed. How do you see that encounter going? **there's X with a LBS guy pinned against the wall, feet off the floor, begging to serve us**

    Oh, I'm just kiddin'.

    Really.

    I am SO happy for you and J. You to deserve all the best life has to offer. Now go bring some new little ones into the world.

    Well garage door guy came, and for those of you single and looking, he was hot!! Anyway, he will be back tomorrow and I will be out $1250. Upside, my garage door will be new and in working order.

    Today is DH's birthday and I told him I expect $1250 to be spent on my birthday.

    The twins are buying Chinese takeaway for their Dad's birthday dinner. YUM!

    Happy 500, TD!

    Lise - I am so happy for you and J. The whole thing is SO great!

    BM03 - good job on the bracelets...

    Knot - I wanna work at REI, too. Problem is I wouldn't take home any money because I'd always find something I couldn't live without. Hard enough haveing TWO of the stores on my commute route.

    When my older son was 12 or 13 he told me that when he grew up he'd buy me a house with a view. (He's 28 now and living in my basement) I'm not holding my breath.

    Jennifer, it's great that you have those pretty med ID bracelets now! I bet your famiily feels less worried now wehn you go off somewhere. Oh too bad about that garage door- I hate it when life gets in the way and ruins nice plans.

    Mimi, too funny. Well, he did make sure that you were in a house with a view....a view of him sleeping in the basement.

    I think everyone sees different numbers on their TD pages- depending on how many posts per page they have their TE preferences set to view. This page for me is in the 300's somewhere.
