    Spent $550 putting new tires on the car, I much rather buy tires for the bike at $50/each.

    Thanks, but it's my heart and lungs that feel out of shape. (of course the heart 'is' a muscle) My legs were just fine on the hills, but my breathing was very labored and it felt uncomfortable. maybe part of it was the cold air, but I felt much more out of breath than I did on those same hills last Fall. ...Thank goodness my quads miraculously survived the winter in good shape. I love my quads, they are the best body feature I've gotten from biking so far!

    Got my old-new wood/coal stove! It looks really nice in the livingroom in front of the fireplace, especially since the appliances are ALL OUT OF THE LIVINGROOM AND IN THE KITCHEN! (Yes, I have a kitchen, except it's kindof like an Ikea kitchen--all show, no function till the plumber comes tomorrow).

    I'll have to call a woodstove/chimney person to give me an estimate of how much it will cost to hook it up. It may not happen until next fall...but it looks warm.

    My mom sent me a text message saying the princess (me) had been given the Logstix by my brother and three boy cousins. My 91 year old Mammaw decided there was no time like the present to buy a new home and I wanted those quirky little toys, I cannot wait to retrieve them tomorrow.

    Happy birthday to me!! I will be building towers of Logstix this weekend.

    Maybe if you just think how warm it could be it will warm you a bit?

    hey everyone. I went on a real bike ride yesterday, 26 miles of trying to keep up with DH and another guy on a tandem. Going wasn't bad, with a tail wind; but good grief, the return was tough, with a headwind... and they just started feeling their oats. Eventually i quit trying to keep up, and had a great ride and slept like a baby last night.
