It's alive!!!
So, I rode my bike to my meeting tonight!! It is sooo awesome! I can't wait to show it off at the next run!!
I'm hoping that I will be in town for the "Ed Mahony" run next Sunday, but I'm not sure what the schedule is for football. We have a game in San Diego that Saturday night. If we stay the night there, I might be able to go to the end of the run.
I'm sorry this is so short, I just wanted to let ya'll know that the bike is up! Now I have to go to bed. I have to be at the airport at 7:30am to go play football in Dallas.

Do I look blue to you?
So, my bike is mostly back together. The rear axle needs to be tightened, the primary fluid needs to be poured in, and the push-rods need to be tightened up just a little. I am holding my breath for a ride tonight.
Hopefully, I will get to ride it to meet with "the" girls tonight!!
Its actually a good thing that my bike was not completely finished last night. It would have been very hard to come to work today if my bike was ridable!
So, the Showgirlz are leaving on a jet plane tomorrow morning! I think we are much better prepared to take on the rest of our season. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
Our current record is 2-3. If we win our last 3 games, I think that we will be in the play-offs as a wild card.
I am taking my knitting with me. I am making the "Learn to Cable Scarf" from Lion Brand out of Caron Simply Soft Quick.
Is that wrong? To do a free pattern from one company out of yarn you bought from one of their competitors?
Too bad, I'm blaming Walmart (they get blamed for everything else anyways haha). They were out of Wool-Ease Thick 'n Quick in purple. I had every intention of using Lionbrand Yarn when I picked the pattern.. It's out of my control!
So, I am making it on US 10.5 plastic needles. Has anyone flown with knitting? I hope they do not throw away my needles. :( I'm taking the plastic ones!! Come on!! Please... I left my scissors at home.. PLEASE!!
Cross your fingers that I get a nice security guard .. I'll be in my football jersey with the rest of the team, so hopefully I get the football fan whose g-ma knits! :D

I WANT TO GO FOR A RIDE!!!
So, I have not really been in a "woo hoo I can't wait to post this" mood lately.
One of the people at work turned in his resignation to avoid being fired, he has been an on-going stress in my life. I think its better for us and him.
My bike has been taking baby steps towards really ride-able. Everytime one thing is whew something else is CRAP!
My son turned 16 last week, and I found out the hard way that you need to schedule a driving test with the DMV 2 months in advance!!
Then, on Monday at football practice, he broke a molar! I took him to the dentist last night, and they gave him a root canal and a temp. crown!
My hubby also had a broken tooth. It was a week ago, and that is how we found this new dentist! (old dentist sucked!!) So atleast we were prepared for my son needing a nice dentist.
Last weekend was home comming for my kids high school. The football team won! My middle one looked gorgeous for the dance!! Of course, she always does.
Her play practice has been going good, but now she wants to drop forensics (debate) which is the only thing that she has been doing consistantly through high school. The coach for debate team actually wants them to put in effort and work at it this year, so she doesn't enjoy it anymore. Unfortunately, kids can drop classes without their parents aproval, so no matter how much we do the "don't quit, give it a chance, you've done really good at it" thing, she probably dropped it before she even brought it up to us.
My football team is playing Dallas this weekend, @ Dallas. We fly out Saturday morning, and we get back Sunday afternoon. Between sitting in the airports and flying, I should have a decent amount of time to knit! :D
My motorcycle club is taking an official, by a photographer, club photo on our bikes this Friday. I will cry if my bike is not ready :(
Two weeks till I get to go back to CC!! I think I might join a knit group that meets on Thursdays also!!
I'll write more later, gotta go!
