Finding Krissi

Hey everyone, If you are still thinking about joining us on the, "Little Red," registration has opened. Click on the picture below to find out all the bike info. Also, if you are like me and will be renting a bike I talked to Canyon Sports in Ogden. The cost to rent a bike is $35.oo a day. They will open their reservations in mid-march. I spoke to the manager and he was really helpful. When you look at the course info you will notice there are several length options for the ride. The minimum being 15 the maximum being 100. We would love for everyone to join us no matter how far they ride.

I fell in love for the first time in 6th grade. His name was Jeff he was tall and had the most delicious brown eyes. He was very, very cute and like every other girl in my class I developed my very first crush. I wonder if dear Jeff was aware of how much all of the girls loved him. From that point forward my heart was in a desperate race to give itself away. Tripping and tumbling through junior high my silly heart gave itself away more then once. It is almost funny how quickly I would tumble in out and out of love. High school dawned and before long my heart was once again tumbling in out of love. However, this time it was joined one or two times with another heart. There is nothing quite like the intensity that our heart feels from those first kisses and the rousing emotions of those first loves. Even as I sit here and write I can feel my heart beat faster as I think of those boys. The way my heart would beat when they entered the room the way my heart would jump with those stolen kis...

If you haven't noticed I really am not a big fan of, "WINTER." For me I just don't see the point of freezing your, well you know what, for 3-4 months out of the year. While I may have grown up in Utah, the decade I lived in California did not help endear me to cold.  Freezing cold, snow, ice, will this ever end winter! Sorry, I got a little side tracked there. It just goes to show you how my dislike of winter takes over.  However, being as I have a husband who loves the cold and short of a job falling into his lap and relocating us to a much warmer place, it looks like I am here to stay. Spring, Summer, Fall I don't mind but Winter, grrr, grump, mumble, whine. That being said, this week I went on a look out for reasons, to like, possibly even to love freezing, well we already covered this didn't we? Once I found some reasons not to detest winter I decided that they would be my blessing of the week.  Kind of  a silver lining in the cloud. Speaking of clouds her...

The other day I read a post by the Country Dr,'s Wife.  I'm still laughing.  She has a great sense of humor check it out here . Back later today with my 52 Blessings Post .

Have you ever sang, "Popcorn Popping on the Apricot Tree?" Well I created my own version and decided to share.  Hope you enjoy.  I looked at the Calendar and what did I see? Three more days 'till January's gone! Winter last longer than I would like it too. That is why I hate January I could pretend that it wasn't so bad I could pretend that it could be worse But we all know That it isn't so Because January Blows Oh So Hard! After singing this song to Brent he said, "Traditionally February is the coldest month of the year." Which I replied, "What makes you think I wont be complaining about February?"

Right before Christmas I found my running shoes on sale for $42.00. Normally, my shoes sale for $95.00.  Needless, to say I jumped on that price and bought myself a brand new pair of shoes.  By the time I had found this killer deal, my shoes were well past the need to be replaced.  Don't believe me?  Take a look. As you can see I clearly was in need of new pair of shoes. While I thought these shoes were, "Oh so comfy," they were indeed ready to be replaced. Have you heard the saying, "Life is not a sprint but a marathon?" Replacing my shoes brought this saying to mind. Wearing my new shoes and having my knees, ankles, arches and feet say, "Geese, it is about time!" Brought to mind the mentality of living a sprint life and living a marathon life. I think I have lived my life, up to this point, with a, "Life is a sprint," mentality. I want it done now. Right now. Yesterday, would have been better. I have figured out that the first step I need t...

Any of you, even considering doing this crazy 104 mile bike ride, might be interested in a blog I stumbled on this morning.  It is called the Fat Cyclis t, and his first two post are a riot.  Especially, in light of the fact that I am just becoming aware of how expensive this sport can become. Check him out! I will be back later today with a groove post. Have a great morning.
