Beautiful day here in the Midwest! high 40's, sunny, light wind. but I couldn't sneak out until a bit late so only had time for 21 before the sun was creeping down. But it was fast (for me coming out of the neighborhood) 18.1 mph. I felt a little guilty 'cause Mr. didn't bring his bike home.

Woke up to a white christmas....and its still snowing over 12 hours later. I'd say there's at least a foot out there. So, no ride today.
All I did was sit on my butt, watch "A Christmas Story" over and over again while my kids go happy-happy-bizerko with their new stuff, drink wine and eat ham. I'm pretty sure if I eat any more ham I may turn into a ham.
Ds is FINALLY asleep! Now its My turn to play on the DS.

Nice 30 mile tandem ride in rain and snow here today. It was fun.

I went about 2 miles uphill in the wind and snow with my dog..and it was pretty cool...the snow had not started sticking to the road yet...
I just like testing all my new clothes... They were AWESOME. It was HARD work in the cold air and I was so comfortable....except for my throat and lungs...I think all that hard breathing of cold air just really hurt!
It hasn;t snowed on the 25thDec here since 1990... I remember that as an icy mess...Discipline is remembering what you want.

I left early in the morning, before hubby and his mom got up. I rode 30 miles in 28 F weather. It was so peaceful and tranquil with a heavy frost in the fields and geese flying overhead. It was such wonderful weather for a morning ride.
