No, Roger Moore can't really sing. I still loved that- I had forgotten all about it!

No commuting for me this week.
It was a terrible, horrible week.
Monday I always drive (to take clothes to work, etc). When I got to work I found out one of our 3rd graders was murdered by his father. Every day this week was really emotionally draining, and I didn't have the energy/motivation/desire/care to ride my bike.

Next week I'm off all week for Thanksgiving break, but hopefully I'll jump back on my bike and ride. I'll try to ride every day in December. Dedicate the rides to our lost little one who loved to play and be outside.

Oh no, Tri Girl, that's awful!

How terrible for everyone, and what a burden to take home with you from work.

That is horrific, Tri Girl. No wonder your energy is not quite there.

Sad

I heard about the little boy on the news and it is hard to think a family member could be so cruel. I can understand why you don't want to ride. After my sisters nephew was killed in Iraq, we were all very close I did not ride hor a several weeks it just seemed pointless. Have a nice break and enjoy your Thanksgiving.
