I popped in to see my friend and bestest WW buddy Janita today and hopped onto her exercise bike while chatting.. like WOW.. when did the old bike, with the wheel on the front, that blew a gail force wind into your face, that sounded like a jet taking off get pushed aside for this little beauty????? Janita's bike records EVERYTHING, speed, distance, KJ's and I WANT ONE!!!!!! It was a little thing that would fit into my little house and no bits for the kids to get their little fingers caught in... will investigate further...
OK... Edit here... Wednesday and I have brought an exercise bike.. for only $170... In a VERY small box. I am not even going to attempt to open it until the kids go to bed. I am imagine there are like a THOUSAND small little screws etc in there!!! Exciting.....
I was planning to go to Horsham today.. just a few things to do and a girlfriend from school was home for the week and I haven't seen her since she got married. We met and had a wonderful lunch, having a huge laugh about all of those things we did, that only she knows about. he he he.. she was reminding me of all of these things we did and I had totaly blocked most of them from memory...so funny!! We where very close for those final years of school, just headed down diffrent paths when we finished school. She moved to London and has since married a South African. they are currently living in Melbourne, but haven't found that 'home' yet. No kids, been married for about 5 years or so. She hasn't changed... She is very clucky, but has just gone back to uni to study law.. finially... so who knows when those little people will start arriving. I have so many photos of that time in my life... school etc, i should have taken them with me to show her. I am a big photo taker and always have been. It really was so nice to see her again.
Ok... must go and check my tea We are heading to Bordertown on Friday. One of Jack's mates from school, father passed away and the funeral is on Friday afternoon. I have farmed out the kids everywhere for half a day.
Ok.. will report in once bike is complete!!!

It's amazing how many great memories we have locked away somewhere within our grey matter that it takes a catch up with an old friend to unlock them. I love that "oh yeah, I forgot about that.... do you remember when..." you got with old friends who you shared a different type of life with.
So, you got an exercise bike!!!! How exciting!!! So, photo girl, we want photos, of course :)
I love catching up with old friends, it's great and reminds us of what a great youth we had! Can't wait to hear all about the bike, it sounds amazing!

Oh good luck with putting the bike together - where did you get it from?
I would like a little bike.
Love catching up with old friends - especially the ones that know EVERYTING!
I love catching up with old friends too, i reckon as we grow up we dont do it half enough.
Hope all went good with the biek and you have been on some great journeys!
YAY for getting an exercise bike! I bought one too a while back and they're great for when it's raining or just for something different. Great while watching TV too :-)
where are you? all ok?
This will be one of my next purchases. I can see myself riding for half an hour during a show. It's a lot quieter than running up and down the hallway too :D
Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

I was thinking about you this morning and I was wondering how long it had been since I had read a post of yours. I thought maybe bloglines was playing up. Hope you're okay sweetie and that you're just busy enjoying life and don't have time for the computer.
