    Hi girls! Good news! First some background.....I spent friday night with sis, it was finally a normal feeling of chatting with her. She asked me to go to bingo at her new senior low income housing, I used my new empowerment skills to tell her no thanks. I've always been one to have a hard...

    I’ve been feeling lazy, tired but pushing myself out to ride and then I surprise myself how well I get up the hills and feel so much better for having done it! Jody, we feel like fraudsters too. We have the nice bike, shorts, jerseys, helmets, clip in shoes and then we’re carting around this...

    Hi everyone, we had a hail storm a couple nights ago in the middle of the night. I was up with suki from 1 to 5 am, poor thing was petrified, finally went back to bed at 5.30 and slept until 8.30! Weather warming up now so we took a short ride today. Something must be in the air because my eyes...

    Hi all, we are trying to cycle, cycle, cycle before more rain (at least it isn’t snow). But we were so tired yesterday so we did just a Jody type ride around town. Jody, please get a helmet! I know in my 20’s I rode motorcycle with no helmet (yes we tend to think we’re invincible then, but...

    Jody, I think I looked at the wrong ride, you were at 22 mph going downhill. I’ll take my giggles back.

    Aw Ronne, you touched my heart when you said I sounded really happy and it was nice to see. I've been putting so much into me after the nightmare. I've been trying hard also to live in the PRESENT. A saying I found is 'Regret is time travel back to the past, where you ruminate on something...

    Hi all, we had a beautiful weekend so DH and I got in lots of cycling and exploring new areas/routes. Another rain/snow event coming this week. Yes I did go to therapist, overall it went well. There were a couple of times I had to repeat things (when she went into self pity, and then all the...

    Hi ladies! Good to see you Tracy! Sounds like a great getaway with DH and now one with the GF! I want to see a pic of the shaved dogs :) were you surprised they shaved the ears too? Should they have just been trimmed? Suki says hi! I do plan to go to the therapist, firstly to listen, not...

    Hi ladies! I'm the one waaaay behind on movies/tv......I finally watched Bohemian Rhapsody, loved it! I won't be rushing to GoT or Marvel. Jody, we did have a fabulous ride yesterday, even with the trail closure where we had to route up onto the road, it all worked out! It helps that the...

    Jody, so scary! I freak out too. Haven't used a Pw manager. I hope all is ok. Mary, what a great surprise! I'm pretty sore from the bike rides, outta shape or old age? Thank goodness for rain so I don't feel bad taking rest days

    Hi all, we cycled beginning of the week and just took a couple of days off. Heading out now for quick ride before sushi lunch with BFF and DH. Easter will be rainy here so getting a ride in tomorrow. As far as sis, she emailed, full of excuses IMO. I replied with honesty (it hurts to hear truth...

    I see my emojis didn't post and I can't figure out how to edit it from my phone, sigh, technology, it's great when it works and isn't used nefariously (like for scams)

    Hi ladies, we had snow yesterday so bike riding halted, though we did ride Sunday and Monday (Monday was very windy so cut it short). Now we have to wait for another warm up, maybe Sunday again, ‍♂️. I got upset yesterday, scumbag contacted sis! She hasn't told me yet. Thank goodness I can see...

    Quick fly by. Mary, that’s so gracious taking in your niece. I’ll be honest, our nephew (dh side) is now in Colorado and his mom (dh sis) inquired about him living here until he gets his feet on the ground. Dh was a resounding no. This kid has had a lot of emotional baggage, adopted at school...

    Heading out for another bike ride today. I'm sore and lazy but I gotta get out while the getting is good (ie good weather). Jody, I'm a total introvert and am happy puttering around home or on the trails. Not only to recharge but because that's what makes me happy and in my advancing age I'm...
