good morning and happy Sunday! alot to comment on...
Tammy - Congrats on the jeans!!! and on the belly button piercing!! I LOVE my bellybutton jewels, I think they are so sexy. And even if you don't show it, YOU know it's there. The cow bell - argh!! couldn't they come up with some other congratulatory sound?!
ChopperChick - Congrats to your son! That car IS smokin. Good lord you have alot to do in your life!!
Job with alot of resonsibilies and travel, the racing, trying to enjoy your bikes, your family, the house. And congrats on the bike selling, it's sad to see the old friends go but the $ is always helpful right.
We were at a local swap meet all day yesterday, we had the United Motorcyclists of Vermont trailer and a table set up with membership info, bumperstickers (Save a Life, Look Twice for Motorcycles and Motorcycles Are Everywhere) buttons, patches. We sold $6 worth of UMV schwag
but more important got the word out about our May 1st Storm the Statehouse gig.
It was cloudy and barely 50 degrees, I was freezing! Untl husband brought out the tequila and that warmed us up a bit. My friend Pickles did ride about 20 some miles to come to the meet, I gave her much deserved kudos for saddling up on such a cold and cloudy day, and received my fair share of ridicule that I didn't ride, LOL!
I bought a new pair of gauntlet gloves that will be perfect for me, even for summer, they're lightweight but have gel in the palms and a soft lining that feels great.
Oh gosh, listen to this...last night DH and I were here at home, guess it was almost 8:00 pm, and we heard a motorcycle approaching on the road. We always pause and listen when a bike goes by, cause if it's someone we know, they will pause and rev or give a crack on the pipes, and a particular friend has pipes that really bark
Well we heard the bike approach, .... but not continue on. then we heard it in the driveway. So we went out, and it was the friend with the loud pipes...asking for a flashlight to help him? BECAUSE HE WAS RIDING ALONG AT 70 MPH IN THE WOODS AND LOST HIS HEADLIGHT!!! Not that it fell off, that he lost power to the headlight, and the auxiliary lights also, so he was in total darkness. And this is a country road, NO street lights! and no other cars around to follow. And in 'moose infested' woods. So he had about 12 miles to our house, so he just sucked it up and rode those miles in darkness (sun had gone down maybe half hour earlier)
He took off the seat to get to wiring and figured out what he could do, he needed a piece of wire that he then stripped and made a connection, and bingo light went on. He thanked us and left quickly, and about 7 minutes later called us from home (he lives 5 miles away) to let us know he was home safe. Can you imagine riding along at night and losing your lights???? Oh, and in that particular stretch of country, NO cell coverage from any provider.
Oh I forgot to brag about something to you ladies -

I skipped working out yesterday
but this morning did Day ..5? I think of Level 3 of 30 day shred. I really should do something else to add because I've been eating like a heifer
and I really do feel physically able to, my head and lungs are clearing out better and better.
okay! I am LOVING LOVING LOVING time off
And because the last two weeks of this month were mandatory time off, my wonderful
boss made us all take 2 weeks vacay without pay, I qualify for at least one week's worth of unemployment ins. benefits, maybe 2 weeks. That sure helps.
okay, I should rouse myself and do some outdoor work again, it's sunny and high 40's now, would be nice to get to the low 50's!
