okay I'm back..I did almost all of level 2 of 30 Day shred, I bailed on the last two minutes of cardio ...oh well!!

have a great day :)

Good Morning

Sorry to hear about ankle and wrist Mandy, how were you so lucky to sprain both of them?

Holly great job on exercising and staying OP- Glad to hear your job is still
fun for you, hopefully tips will get alittle better as time goes on. Is it usually same people that come to the lodge every year or different people
all the time? Just curious

Well DS races Friday, Saturday, and Sunday this week. DH races Saturday only. My laptop the last couple of days won't connect to internet but the other 2 computers will so not sure what is going on there, and I hate sitting in computer room it is boring.....

Ok I will check back in later hopefully
Have a Great Day :)

Hello- It finally Friday but the home chaos will just begin..... Well this week we have races tonight through Sunday, plus we have our Eagle Rider group ride Sunday as well.

Hope everyone else has a relaxing weekend and gets to get out and ride

good morning! best wishes to your crew racing, CChick! and I sure hope you have nice weather for your group ride.

I did not work out yesterday and I won't today. So there. :p :D I just didn't have the energy yesterday, and I didn't make the time this morning. Something about leaving the house at 8:30, and then getting home at 9:00 pm or later, wears you out! but i know the consistant exercise has helped me with endurance for these long days.

CChick, it is the same people each year, they have a very limited membership and at this point, people have to pass away before another slot is available, and there is a long waiting list.

oh, the first night when we 'passed the baskets' I noted that there were alot of small bills? well each night they have increased, very nice to see. Either our service sucked the first night, or we just had to get them warmed up, lol. Tonight is my last night in the dining room, thank goodness!!!! I couldnt do it full time.

I want so much to ride to work today but it is pretty 100% rain coming in later, and I just don't want to deal with extreme fatigue, darkness and rain coming home.

do we know when Tammy gets back?

Mandy, how ya doin'? :hug:

HEY Gina...are you OK? and Jill, do I need to PM you again sister? :)

have a great day chicks and watch out for those cagers!!!

Im doing much better, my ankle popped yesterday and it feels much better today, I can put some weight on it and I have a bigger range of motion. I think it must have been dislocated or something.

Last night, my husband took Christian to the ER to get his nose stitched up. He fell into the front door handle, and it sliced through his little nostril. it not a sharp object so I am pretty amazed at the damage.

if anyone is curious, here is a pic of my son with his stitches

Holly glad to hear tips were getting better as the days went on. Those are some long days glad to hear they are just about done. Mine will just be getting started next week, we start stocking the new store and open on Thursday, finally :)

Mandy oh that would have hurt boy little guy. I wouldn't have thought that a door handle could do that kind of damage either.

Well DS got 1st in his heat and 3rd in his feature last night- so he is still
doing an awesome job :) YAY

Well I think I may try to take a nap before leaving we are going alittle early, need to run into next town to pick up refrigerator for river camper. Not a bad price acutally $350.00, but got to have a working refrigerator.

Well ladies I think Tammy should be getting back any day now. I hope she posts pics for us????

Talk to you girlies later

Oh and weather is suppose to awesome for us tomorrow- 75 degrees and sunny

Hey Ladies, I am at a public computer so I will only be able to post once. We left last Saturday, got in Vegas on Monday night. The weather was brutal on Mother's Day..... but we got blessed by a HD dealer in Amarillo, TX (which is where we are now b/c of the rain-- been here since yesterday afternoon-- hopefully leaving early in the AM for home). I will go into details about the blessing when I get on my laptop, which I kick myself for not bringing! Anyhoo..... we were married on Wednesday AM. It is not on the web yet b/c we did not want to pay the $150.00 extra for it. I do have the DVD in hand.... the wedding pic may be a problem, they could not print them they were going to mail them to us (say a little prayer we get them, there are some good pic in there). The preacher did a beautiful ceremony, it was not like some drive thru hurry up job..... it was great. We left Vegas Thursday and we were doing good on time until we hit this storm. It produced tornadoes about 25 miles ahead of us and it runs our entire course home. So, there is nothing to do but wait it out. I have a lot to tell you guys..... I have missed blogging with ya. Thanks for your well wishes. I am going back to the room now. I hope to be home tomorrow night..... if not hopefully Monday AM. Miss you all.... have a great night. Btw, I have been eating horribly, I bet I have gained 10 pounds! No exercise besides walking down the strip and fighting the desert winds! Oh well, it has been worth it.

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Tammy!!! :D:congrat: thank you so much for checking in from the road, so sorry to hear of the terrible weather! looking forward to hearing ALL about your trip and hopefully some pics :)

Mandy, so sorry about your little guy!

CChick, congrats to DS! and gosh, another store opening, congrats on that too :)

last night was my last night waitstaffing, and I had a couple hours between baking and then waistaff, so I was able to come home for a one hour nap, and that made all the difference.

I did ride to work today, the rain was over but was still kinda windy, and all the way to work I was avoiding stuff on the roads, like branches, pine cones, small saplings broken across the road, a dead beaver :eek:

I was so pleased that DH and DS#2 cut most of the grass yesterday, I knew it really needed it but I just have not had the time lately. As I pulled into the driveway I noticed right away, doesn't a freshly cut lawn at your house look so nice :)

I have off tomorrow, yay! first day off in seven days. I have alot of laundry to do, and I haven't worked out in 3 days, so I will get back to regular working out :strong:

have a great night chicks :carrot:

good afternoon! I slept two hours later than usual and that felt great. Lazed around a bit, then did The Biggest Loser Cardio 25 minutes with Bob, then about 10 minutes of Cathe abs. I still have hours of laundry to do, and to make an appt. for my car, the heat shield is loose and rattly but I also hear something like a hole in the muffler. I hope it won't cost too much! (futile wish, I'm sure :D)

hope everyone's doing OK :)

good afternoon! today and Wednesdays I leave for work at 6:00 am so I won't be saying hi til later. And making myself exercise later. I swear, I dragged myself kicking and screaming into my workout today. If I could, I would have thrown myself on the floor and drummed my heels and whined. I was truly seriously resisting!! finally after about 15 minutes into it, I started to smooth out and put more effort into it. And completed it! It was the Denise Austin cardio/weights/abs. I"m glad I MADE myself do it.

This morning it was 30 degrees when I left. I had to pull over about 15 miles from here, to defrost my fingers but that was all that was cold. But I wanted to ride because it was going to be beautiful on the way home, and it was!

have a nice night chicks!

Hey Ladies, I am home. I got home LATE Sunday night and after riding from Amarillo, TX to home (733 miles) in one day I was beat!

First of all, the wedding. I have not been able to get around the encription of the wedding video to post on myspace or facebook. To top it off, they had a problem with the computer and the pictures so they are mailing them. So, I have a big fat ZILCH right now..... but I do have the DVD in hand. The ceremony was beautiful, but we were told one price to have it put on the web and got there and it was much higher for a shorter period of time. So, we did not do that. My boss is confident she can get around the encription.
It was awesome....... I cannot even tell you how good the wording of the ceremony was........ and of course HE cried..... which made me tear up. My youngest son so kindly pointed out the tears in my eyes...... b/c I am a bawl bag by nature.

I have the true biker face going on..... the pale eyes and the sunburned face--- by the way...... I burned through the bandana with sunscreen on---- so that tells you how hot the sun was.

I have to tell you...... I had major cold feet, but it was the best trip and the best bonding experience either of us could have wished for.

We gambled a whole $25 away (20 for me, 5 for him). We just looked at the sights and enjoyed each other's company and not having the everyday life bothering us! We are both not going back to work until our original date of next Tuesday, so we are just home hanging out and having mini vacations. I did go in for a few hours before daylight this AM and will do again on Thursday..... I just don't want the cash flow in the office to be interupted.

As far as the trip, you know he got the new bike right before we left. We were going to have to strain to get to Arizona to have it serviced b/c everywhere I called was not open on Sunday's until June or so--- which included the dealership in Amarillo Texas. However when we went by there were bikes outside so we stopped. Wayne told the guy what was going on he actually was eating lunch and stopped eating and did Wayne's bike and did it for $150 less than it should have been as a wedding gift. They are not open but for 2 hours for their HOG meeting and not to the public, but they were so kind and did what we needed. It was such great customer service.

There were points of the trip that we froze to death (Amarillo Texas!) and points that we were roasting (desert of NM and AZ). And there were tornadoes (Amarillo Texas), but it was a great journey!

I am sorry I have missed so much. I have not had time to read all of the posts but I do plan to do so later this week.

Thanks for helping me before the trip gals, I appreciate it! :hug: You rock.

Btw, in Kingman AZ their service guy was ran over by an 18 year old "under the influence of something" and killed 2 weeks ago. And Sunday their was a couple killed by a 17 year old that pulled out in front of them while they were on a ride. I am thinking seriously about doing a letter to the editor for the paper...... just about my thoughts and feelings.... any suggestions?

Tammy

I just wanted to post up a hello...Biker chick here. I have a CBR600 Smokin' Joe Replica and a Yamaha R1. I'm looking at getting a cruiser though because alas, I'm getting old, have a bum knee and it locks up after too long of a ride on a sportbike. Hehehe....

Are any of you ladies on sportbikes.net? I'm sexnstillettos on there, founding member of the kitty posse...hehhe

Welcome 'hello pinki'....... sorry, I drive a cruiser...... I am an old woman at age 35--- too old for a sport bike. :welcome3:

Hello and Welcome "hello pinki", well I to am to old for sport bike my 19 year old just got a Yamaha R6 and it is way different riding than riding a cruiser.
I personally have a chopper, but I do consider it a cruiser still. :)

Tammy so glad to hear your had a great "super" trip. Sorry to hear about the weather you ran into, sounds scary. But on a good note that sure was nice of the guy in Amarillo, TX and wow that was a super price $150 shoot to have our service done here it is about $280 + tax
Hopefully your pictures do come or you get disc un-encrypted so we can watch :)

Well again I have been super busy but new store opens on Thursday so I can't guarantee I will be on here much this week, but will try.

Have a great night

good morning chicks! big welcome to hello pink! Cruiser chick here also, though I'd love to test ride a sport bike.

Tammy - 733 miles in one day is a record buster!! cant wait to see some pics :)

hi CChick!! thanks for saying hey :hug: we know you must be super busy with the new store opening.

thank goodness it's 20 degrees warmer now than it was yesterday at this time!! (50 instead of 30!) that will make riding to work alot more comfy. have a great day.
