I'm out! I screwed up and didn't post yesterday - thought about posting all day but never did it. I woke up in the middle of the night realizing I missed a post. Oh well you win some and you lose some.

Whoopsie - almost went to bed without posting. Nablome is starting to become a pain.
Today was uneventful other than having to endure the House Guest milling around the house. Yes his company had the day off. I did get my scheduled ride in but went with a fellow team mate. Just cadence work - felt bad that I subjected someone else to it because it isn't a whole lot of fun. We had some whippity wind too I guess from the Hurricane they say. So worked hard out there to keep the cadence up.
Went home thoroughly depressed because she just got one of the new Giant TCR bikes with Dura Ace & some new Zipps for race season. Bike lust even though I am not a Giant fan which I shouldn't even say because Giant manufactures frames for a lot of bike companies. So regardless of the bike I buy I may end up on a Giant anyway.
Well one productive thing I can say about today is that I can name and point out on a map all the provinces in Canada. Can you?

I am totally zoned out here but thought picture worth saving just for the hair alone! That was 2nd day hair too. Much much worse 1st day. Funny to look at my eyebrows in their natural state - they were complete virgins then - however my total Ho hair gave it up long ago.
My Mom's cat Buckwheat.
Man that went quick. What a glorious warm day. Must be our Indian Summer. Did manage to get most of the bulbs in the ground. I don't know what it is about planting bulbs but that job is a drag.
Had our end of season field hockey party tonight. I was so not into going. I've become quite unsocial. Now their talking about a coaches only party. Ugh. The girls surprised us with coach jackets and t-shirts. So cool! Plus a nice signed and framed photo of the girls. Very thoughtful.
During the party we had a surprise visit from a bear. The host of the party lives on a wooded street in bear country. Actually her house is sitting in the bear's former habitat. Probably still wondering where that big fucking house came from.
Anyway, back at the ranch, completely happy that Tuesday night looks to be a nice stay at home night - finally - except for the fact that I have to pick up Kid 2 at football. Always a catch.
Another post that will just blow you away! 2 hr bike ride on a gorgeous beautiful day, core and kettle bell followed. I think next week is a rest week unless I added wrong - hoping! Just back from club board meeting. Our club is trying to morph to new kits without pissing off current members that recently purchased kits. I think they worry about it too much. It's not like they can't still where them for gods sake. Slow process. I wish it was my project....they'd be ordered by now. Our kits are so ugly.
Lights out!
