Day 302--a quickie, but everyone likes a quickie now and then

I rode a bike today. My daughter Rachel walked along beside me at first because I am afraid I'll fall. But I didn't. Then we went on TWO bike rides. My legs are all noodly. But I did something I haven't been able to do in years because I was fat and I did it wayyy before I thought I would be able to do it.
Me!
Riding a bike!
It was so much fun!!!!!!!!!
And when my kids get home I know they're all going to want to go on a bike ride with me because I have never---let me repeat that, NEVER--gone on a bike ride with any of my children. And I have been a Mom for 25 years.
I am being reborn.

  8. I secretly want to buy a bike this spring. The bigger hurdle will be riding it in public. Yeah, I know, "nobody cares!" but it's still a thing with me. If I make myself do it, it would be tremendous because that would (obviously) be a lot of great exercise.
