A Small Truck

So took my car in to the body shop today to have it fixed after it was hit unattended in the parking lot of one of our offices. Of course I had to rent a car and when I got to the rental car place they didn't have many cars left - they gave the car they were holding for me to someone else and asked if I would mind driving a 'small' truck. I expressed a bit of frustration since I have to take my bicycle with me this weekend on my travels and if it is raining all weekend I really didn't want the bike in the bed of a truck getting wet... But then I didn't really have much choice - they mentioned they would have more cars tomorrow so I asked if I could swap the truck out - which they said they would. Well, I get out to the parking lot and the 'small' truck is not quite 'small'. It's pretty much a full size truck! Which is actually quite fun to drive. Guess I'll keep it! Of course who knows what the mileage will be like as I'm gallivanting around Southern California this weekend! And as it turns out the truck has a back seat - so I took the front tire off my bike and fit it in the back - hopefully I'll be able to put the bike back together early on Saturday morning! Ramble... ramble... ramble...

Isn't Like I Don't Have Anything to Write About

I was so good in January! And then fell apart in February! And now here it is - the middle of March - ok - new goal - every day for the rest of March... and then we will go from there. And it isn't like I don't have anything to write about - not only the absurd that happens every day - but an amazing Emmaus weekend - the Safari Park 1/2 Marathon - the wonderful group that is my church LIFE group - the Blessing of the Lenten Devotional - and then coming up is my first Triathlon - and of course there is always my third job - Pampered Chef... So enough said for now - it's getting late and I must be up at 5am to go to the gym. Good night and there WILL be more to come!
