Day 85-November 24, 2012

     The 29th birthday of my middle son.  It was precious to share most of this week with him and his precious Cora, E'lora, and Raj.  I was absolutely delighted to find my cover crop sprouted up in the garden today.  Each of the girls gave us an egg.  I pulled everything out of my pantry cupboards, cleaned and sorted.  The surface of the range is clean, for now.  I need to clean up before I put out xmas.                       On our lovely afternoon bicycle ride around Empire Mine my goal to ride 10 miles was reached.  I also did a classic endo trying to go up a curb, I have the scrapes and sore spots to prove it, a little blood on one knee and the other thigh.  Brenda the Brave was my first and everlasting thought.  I could have cried, but I didn't; I could have quit riding, but I pressed on.  Brenda the Brave is a tribute to me and my values, press on, don't give up, it's your one life.  Eddie made us awesome burgers for dinner, just what I was craving.  See, a delicious BBQ burger makes it all absolutely fine and dandy.  The fellas are motorcycling tomorrow.  I'm still due for more cleaning.  Right now, it's time for bed.
