OK...What is with the weather?

It is warm and windy here...I mean really windy with gusts of over 40mph....not exactly the kind of weather you can ride any distance on a bike. Tomorrow however...it could be snowing...So when you think it can't get worse...it does! I guess it will be trainer time....unless I decide to get out and run. We'll see.

Gosh..27 years ago today...Jarrod was born. Little did we know how our lives would chance. Under the circumstances I guess we were naive to think any differently.

Please explain to me why...6th grade students cannot take on responsibility? Do they do it just to drive their teachers insane? That is what I feel like more everyday. Please tell me that retirement will actually happen in a few years. If not...just shoot me now!

I have been following a blog...from the Livestrong Challenge website...and what an inspiration Susan has been. She is asking people to join her team for next years' Austin Livestrong Challenge in October. Please consider doing just that. She is a 10 year survivor who continues the battle....and wouldn't we love to see her victorious? I know I would!

BTW...I was back on the road yesterday. I have been off my bike for weeks because of a bad ankle sprain! Boots and crutches were like being in a straight jacket for me. ( For anyone who knows me...being confined is not a good thing!) I rode some of the normal route...hills and all and basically feel pretty good. The ankle was a little swollen today....but I am working through that. Can't wait to ride again after this crazy weather patch passes us by.

Keep the hand sanitizer handy...Seems like the bug is everywhere. Poor Hillary cannot get it out of her house.Maybe the little night critter she has will get it....who knows. With all the sweets it has been given lately....it may be on sugar overload. Cannot wait to hear about the latest videotaping session. If it is some type of phantom rodent....we will not be pleased.

Thank goodness....no ice storm this year....last year it was NOT pretty!
