My New Tool

I went to check this bike out last Sunday because my husband's friend bought it for his girlfriend and she doesn't use it anymore. I love this bike!! We were able to borrow the bike to take it to Charleston, SC to our friends Dave and Liza's over the Thanksgiving holiday and I ended up putting 30 or so miles on it in two days. We bought it on Monday. Thanksgiving was good we had a good time at Robert's Aunt ans Uncles house, his mom and dad and Grandmother were also in attendance. we left there around 3 Thanksgiving day then drove to Charleston. I love going to Charleston to see our friends, it's kinda like a mini vacation but with the comforts of home.

Several Things

Well I started at the gym yesterday evening, Robert and Shawn went with me on my first trip to show me around and how stuff worked. We were at the gym until about 6 then headed home. Got up this morning at 5am and headed back to do a better workout, I'm ready for bed now. Robert found out today that he has strep, his throat has been sore for a couple of days but we had no idea it was this, Doctor gave him meds he should start feeling better by tomorrow. Shawn went to a Boy Scout meeting a week ago Tuesday and they made kindling, well now Shawn has a hatchet of his own and even built mom a fire Sunday night which was the hottest and longest lasting fire I have ever had, he did wonderful with a little bit of help from dad way to go guys.  :)

Today was a good challange

Today was a challange but a wonderful day. I learned that I can jog, maybe not very far, yet, but I can do it. Shawn was alot of help to me jogging, he loves to encourage me which coming from a 10 year old is more valuable than anything. I knew if Shawn was with me I couldn't cheet or quite, he wouldn't let me and I didn't want to, I needed someone to help me get over the fear of just starting. Now that I have started Idon't want to quite, I wanted to start the program over and do it again but I knew I couldn't and shouldn't. Next run is Friday and believe it or not I can't wait, I feel like I am actually doing something and I can't wait to see the weight start falling off faster. I think Robert is impressed also, he doesn't say much but I know he is watching.

Good news

Just found out that Robert has officially been upgraded to a
Pro 2. All of his hard work has and is paying off. I am soooooo proud of him. To go through everything that he has been through and still keep his dream alive and to still strive to do his best, what an AWESOME reward! I am very proud!    :)

Halloween 2010

Robert and Shawn went camping with the Scouts on Friday night, they stayed at camp Tokoa until after Shawn got to do the zip line @2:30 they made it home about 4ish. I got up and cleaned house so my boys would have a clean house to come home to. We all went to a Halloween party @ Paul Christopher's house. We had a good time, saw several bicyclist that we knew. We ate to much and drank to much, but had a good time. Sunday Robert went for a 3-4 hour ride and Shawn went to play, Robert took a bike apart when he got home and we went trick or treating around 6, Shawn came home with more candy than should be allowed in one house. All in all a funfilled weekend.
