Today I had my first 20 mile ride and I am wiped but so proud of myself! I spent half of my ride listening to my music and the other half working with the "spin trainer". This also happened after a whole day of moving boxes and furniture in the effort to prepare for tomorrow.
Unfortunately it is almost 8 on Sunday night and I have done nothing to prepare for school tomorrow but that is ok. :) I will go to a website and order the thing I need for school. This week is going to be:
a) busy
b) stressful
c) one where I cannot wait for Saturday to roll around
I also started working with a trainer and I have been so sore but so thrilled with the awesome progress I am making. So thrilled in fact that I had to go clothes shopping on Saturday for some things that fit. And I am debating joining a cycling club...

Biking Shorts and A family update
So I am finally home from work... I left at 6:15 and got home shortly after 5:30. I am wiped but now that my weird rash is gone I have committed to getting back in the gym every day. This leads me to my bizarre thoughts about my biking shorts.
1. I feel like I am a diaper wearing fool. That padding is thick!
2. Since I have lost 23 pounds I always feel like they are going to fall off and I am constantly pulling them up.
3. You can't wear them with underwear because they are meant to stop the rash and therefor they must be washed after every use. Not a problem right now but let's fast forward to the kitchen remodel. I better get very familiar with hand washing.
Aside from my thoughts on my shorts I am so PROUD of myself for staying with this diet and for continuing to work had to obtain a physical shape that I like. I am almost there! I have more energy and am feeling better than I have in a long, long, time.
As for the rest of the peeps this blog is about...
Reid is super busy with work and he is having his Third Molars aka Wisdom Teeth removed on Thursday. I am really not sure how to feel about that, but it gives me a day to stay home and have a nap. The kitchen is coming along. I sacrificed a lot to get the backslpash and bar I wanted and I cannot wait for it to be put together.
The dogs are good. Duke was really sick a few weeks back but is doing ok now. Olive is still my girl and has recently had some quality time with me in the evening which always ends in Reid exclaiming she has tried to bite him. I have to laugh at that every time. And little Grey is still little, she is tipping the scales at 7 pounds. Reid does not even consider her a pet because she is not hard to take care of. :)
