Noisey night!
A water main broke on our street! And I got out of the shower just in time for them to shut the water off! That was close! They don't even let you know when either! I mean, what if I still had soap or hair dye in my hair! Well we do keep bottled water in the house! Though it would be a little chilly coming straight from the bottle! So all night long we got to hear them breaking out the concrete! Then we went to work in 90 degree heat w/high humidity! On the way home we stop and pick up a bike at Wal-mart that my hubby found cheap on-line! I haven't had a bike in over 20 years! My husband calls it an old lady bike cause I prefer the kind I had as a teen. Coaster brakes and no gears! Yep, I like it better! I had one with 3 gears and one with 15 gears and hated them and the hand brakes! Well after we got the box home my husband put it together right away! While he was doing that I caught up on washing dishes and eating a late lunch! Then he asks if he can come for a ride with me when I try out my new bike. What, I'm gonna say no?!! So even though I was just planning on taking it just around the block, I now went for a 10 block ride! Boy am I tired and hot again! But I enjoyed it too! After we got back from the ride I asked him if I went too slow for him! He says" Are you kidding?!!" " I thought you were going pretty fast and was afraid if you went any faster I might have trouble keeping up!" OOps! I figured since I'm alot shorter and 10 years older that I would be the one dragging behind! He wants our next bike ride to be twice that long and at a lot slower pace! I CAN DO THAT! I want to get in better shape! I want to be one of those little old ladies that still cut the grass and can pick up a 40/50lb bag of dog food and put it in the basket and then still lift it into their car! I was always stronger than most my age and dont want to wus out now!So you see I had a not too shabby day! Hope yours was good too! : )
