Whoa...what a day.
I got up early today, not because I needed to help Jason with anything in particular, or because I had to get the girls to day care (they didn't spend last night here), or for any other typical reason I have to get up early. Today I got up early because I wanted to go for a bike ride. Actually, I wasn't up until 07:00, and that much later than when I usually get up. I rode out to Cabrillo State Park, and took a couple of hours to make the round trip. It was quite hilly and it gave me a good work out. It also showed me just how out of shape I am. There were two other riders, going in the same direction as me, and they both passed me with little effort, and I felt terrible for that. I thought I should be able to keep up with them, or at least ride a little faster than I was moving. Anyway, it just motivated me to keep pushing to find time to ride.
Jason had no appointments today, and the girls were not with us today, until after day care. That's why I felt I would be able to take a couple of hours and do some good road work. Shortly after getting back to the house, well maybe a few hours after getting back, Jason got a text asking him to call, so he did. He was asked to pick up the girls from day care and have them spend the night. This was a total surprise as we didn't expect to have the girls with us until sometime later, so obviously we were pretty happy to have the very nice gift, bestowed upon us. When we went to pick them up they were both very happy to see us and Jackie was actually able to see us drive up, since she was outside in the play area.
It did mess with the schedule I had for the day, but that's okay. We were able to head over to the store and pick up the things we needed, and I made spaghetti for dinner. Stacy says she loves my spaghetti so it was a win win all the way around. After dinner they went to go play with daddy, and daddy had some cookies for them, for desert and after that we didn't even have to ask them to go brush their teeth, they just went and did it. They got their bath and then got ready for bed. It turned into a wonderful night and I can get those things I wanted to do today, tomorrow. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers and take care and stay positive.

That all sounds wonderful! Don't worry about not being able to keep up with the other bikers yet--you will!
