No Way!!

Three in a row?? Wow something must be wrong with me. Hee hee just kidding. So we had a good day today. Went to church this morning and Michael sang in the choir. If the video loads up correctly he is the one on the end in the long sleeved white shirt. Too cute...

After church, we came home and went bike riding yet again. Nothing as memorable as yesterday considering I got a flat and had to walk home instead of ride. Took a little longer,but at least the weather was good. Anyways, basically had a good day. Back to work tommorow yuck...

See ya again in 2 months! (just kidding) (maybe).

A Natural High

I took the kids on a long bike ride today. It was perfect weather and a good chance to escape. I rode longer and harder than I ever have before and it felt good. I felt alive. Maybe it's been too long and I've been walking around like a zombie. I'm not sure. I just know it felt good. I've heard of how people push themselves to a point of pain but they love it. I always thought they were nuts. But I had that today and it was great. Euphoric. Ya.

Will I ever have it again? Maybe, maybe not. But it was the best natural high I've ever had.

Rock on...

Regrets...

Are a wasted emotion. I realize this now. But still, it's hard not to have them. My grandpa's funeral was today. I wish I had gone and seen him more often than I did, but there's nothing I can do to change it now. And that sucks. It truly does. I tell myself that he knew I loved him, and try to comfort myself with that fact. I did pretty good today with the emotions kept under control, but it seems that now I'm all alone with with my emotions going nuts. I don't know...

Anyways, I did get to see a lot of people that I haven't seen in a very long time. It had been WAY too long... It's sad how family only seems to come together when somebody passes away. I am going to make it a promise to start keeping in touch with more people. Even if by e-mail or phone, I will make it a point.

Life is too short to miss out on the most important things.

2009

Has started off on the wrong foot. My grandpa died a week or so ago and I will miss him so much. I didn't get to see him a whole lot, but our visits were always special. I will think of him always and remember him forever.

We had a good Christmas, kept it low-key and had a pretty awesome day. I tried to make it not so much about the gifts (because it's not really anyway) and kept it more about spending time together as a family. Of course there were gifts, just not as much as usual. But it turned out to be one of our best Christmases yet.

I was sick over New Years (not from partying =p) so the kids partied at my mom's house and I was in bed at 8:00 pm. Nice. Oh well, I woke up at 12:45 and wished everyone a Happy New Year before I threw up... Ha ha.

Other than that, any free time has been spent outside (since we recently got rid of any and all cable) riding our bikes and going on our little adventures. Every day we go a bit farther and it is so much fun. (We go a bit farther every day on account that I'm impossibly out of shape...) But hey, I'm getting there.
