Hello,
I like to read these threads, but have not written in. I thought I would today.
This past year has been the WORST year of my life! I was 49 yrs old, my husband of twenty years told me he needs his space, wants a divorce and has moved out of the house, I have two teenagers at home, had surgery, and now I have to find a job after 15 yrs of being a stay at home mom. These are just the highlights, of 2010!
Anyway, I was pretty miserable when my 50th birthday rolled around this month. So... I went and purchased myself a 50th birthday present! A beautiful new Specialized Dolce Elite roadbike! You do not know how excited I am about this bike! I have been riding a Diamondback hybrid bike (that my husband picked out FOR me) for over ten years. I have wanted a road bike but was afraid to get one, and they are expensive for me. Anyway after wishing for a new bike for the last couple of years, I thought, you only turn 50 yrs old once, and I deserve it!
I just brought it home and I feel like kid with a brand new toy!! I can't wait to ride it!
As the kids are visiting my husband at his apartment this weekend, I just had to tell someone!
Thanks for listening!
Connie
