We still need to hang some art or something.
I have one class down and eight more left. Eight left as in ever! Bachelors degree is so close I can almost taste it, it sort of taste like expensive parchment paper.
Though we are swamped with birthdays, weddings, and our own anniversary we have still been finding time to ride. Brandon "finished" Olive and then took her to get the final touches by a professional. Riding Olive is completely different than June Bug, but I'm getting more comfortable with the differences. And at 25 I think I am beginning to understand shifting. Better late than never.
This is June Bug, my Schwinn.
This is Olive, my Bridgestone X0-5 frame with pretty much new everything else.
Our couple rides around the neighborhood have taken a turn for the strange. There is a duo of young boys who will suddenly appear and follow us when we take our bikes out. I have no idea where they come from or how they know we are out. They want to race and want us to watch them. I'm not very comfortable around strangers kids so mostly we just stay away from the school, their favorite spot. It does kind of suck because the school parking lot is a great place for me to practice getting comfortable with shifting.
Olive and the Unnamed
Mostly we have been busy with the regular old family stuff but I have made some time to do homework outside. I like going to the conservation club with my husband and doing homework out there. It is very beautiful.
It is very peaceful too, except for all the gun fire.
Work is busy, school is swamping us, it feels like every weekend until January has something but we still make time to do things just the two of us.
Just us and dinner on the patio.
Counting down the classes until I'm done with school. Counting down the weeks until I go to Florida in November. Counting down the days until my wedding anniversary (09-08-07). Counting down the hours until I can get on my bike again.
