neglect
I have neglected my blog. For some reason every time I cam here my mind went blank.
Time has flown since I passed my motorcycle class. I got my full fledged license to ride my bike. Pat and I have been riding everywhere! On our first "long trip"(one that was longer than 20 miles) we went to Hale's Bar on the Tennessee River. That was a round trip of just short of 100 miles. I had a blast! Brook went with us on the back of Pat's bike.
I have now rode my bike at night, in the rain, in the rain at night. I have rode in the big town(Chattanooga) during rush hour traffic. I had had to stop fast or run into an idiot that pulled out in front of me. I have had the finger (I was going to slow to suit them, about 5 miles under speed limit). Slid in gravel and dropped my bike. So when do I become a real biker? LOL
I got a new set of teeth because the first set had a bad bite. it took 3 weeks of complaining before anybody actually paid any attention to what I was saying. By anyone I mean the same person every time. The head honcho took over and made my new set. I had to go back one time for an adjustment and that has been it. I guess it is time for Pat to take pictures of me for everyone to see!
I am hoping that Candy will have some big news soon. I won't tell you what it is until I get the news.
The scales show that I am down to 180 pounds now. 40 more to go and they sure are hard to get off! I was not able to take the exercise class this month so I will need to get my rear in gear and lose on my own.
Ok I am off. I won't stay gone so long next time.
