When you work, Saturdays are the best day in the world. You can sleep in, socialize, do chores, do whatever the heck you want. When you don't work, Saturdays are the best because everyone's home and you have company. What's not to like about Saturday?
Of course, I'm sad that Andy Schleck didn't beat Alberto Contador in the time trial today, but hey, I have no control over that. Wishin' and hopin' just didn't cut it I guess. I will be sorry to see the Tour du France end because it's been on non-stop for three weeks, keeping me company every day. Just when I get a spin bike up and running right in front of the tv the darn Tour ends. Curses!
Mine brither came this morning to get me through my exercises. As always, he's so helpful and insightful. He was able to see how far I've come in the two or three weeks since he's been here. I'm going to find a mirror tonight though because he thinks my left knee is higher than my right knee. Ok, sometimes he might just be a little too observant. It was up to Brent to get me through my awful afternoon period of distemper. He hasn't seen me through my exercises for awhile either and I hope he was suitably impressed. I'm not sure if he was clapping for me or some rider in the TdF, but I'm going to assume it was for me!
For my women readers, did you know that they still make electric razors for women? I asked Renee this question the other night and she assured me that such a critter could be found at BB&B. Can I tell you that it's hard to shave over numb parts of your legs with a regular razor. First of all, standing up in the shower with limited mobility and trying to shave your legs is difficult. Top it off with numb leg parts and nasty still healing scars and it's just impossible. It's like my leg has a hairy mohawk right up the middle of the scar. How crazy is that! So, Brent and I stopped at BB&B during our travels and I picked up the cheapest one I could find - who knew that Panasonic made razors. I no sooner got home with the thing than Mom called and told me she found hers. Heaven only knows how old this Remington electric razor is but she said she only used it once or twice and the thing looks brand new. I have it charging now and if it works ok I guess I'll return the $40 one I bought yesterday. Hey, $40 is a new cricut cartridge! I'm always scheming.
We went over to Mom and Dad's to pick up the razor and they didn't have dinner plans so we all went to try that fairly new Thai place called Chalit's over on he Carlisle Pike. It's BYOB, always a selling point for us, and it's really nice. Very cool inside and the food was outstanding. We will definitely go back there.
It's been a great couple of days. Even though tomorrow will still have the same old exercise components to it, I'm looking forward to whatever tomorrow has in store for us.
