Offering.


In honor of Donald (again), we made an offering to the only member of our family who has a shrine, Yeager. In front of Yeager’s picture and ashes, we offered a shot glass full of Yeagermeister – a liquor that was given to use by Katherine many years ago and tastes like cough medicine. May the gods look upon you favorably.

Getting back on schedule.

This past weekend was difficult to get back on NY time. Jeremy was exhausted during the day and ready to wake up by 4 in the morning. Hopefully today will have us all back on schedule. Vince is “washing the dishes” right now and I’m scared to go into the kitchen because I think the floor may be flooded.

We bought a baby monitor because from our new bedroom location, we can’t hear the kids until they are screaming. So now they only have to make a little tiny peep.

Finally!

Went out biking for the first time today since breaking my collarbone. WOO! It was a super nice day as we went out to the coast to get some miles in. We did a loop of about 26 miles from La Honda to San Gregorio to Pescadero and back. At Pescardero we stopped in a bakery that had some fresh, hot artichoke garlic sourdough bread. Super yummy. I was tempted to stuff a loaf in my jersey and take it home. Too bad. THe shoulder felt surprisingly good, tho I’m definitely taking the decents a little slower now. 😛

Spinning class.

In honor of the Donald-meister, I took a 60 minute spinning class this morning, except for the fact that I don’t think my gym bought the Spinning TM bicycles, so they call it a cycle class. I walked into the class and it was clear I was not prepared. Everyone brought little gel seat protectors for their butts and water bottles and had bicycle shoes and little towels for mopping up their sweat.

I fiddled with the bicycle and I got on and realized that the person in the previous class had set the resistance so high that I couldn’t move the pedals at all. So I set the tension way, way down and then spent the class going up “hills” and crusing the “open road” pretty funny.

Jeremy is home!

Vince went to his first birthday party yesterday at Diamond Gymnastics. It was pretty funny. They had pizza and cake and a moon bounce. The whole place smelled like sweat.
