    Glad you're back! I hope you're feeling better. I have been able to enjoy some free time in the evenings when my husband is home. I'm afraid that I may lose that free time after I send my children back to school next week. Then homework and dance class and all of the other horrible routines start back up.

    I would be doing great if my goal had been 350. Maybe that is what I should set as my goal for next month.

    Is there a topic started for next month?

    12.5 miles tonight. Holy Smokes! My little 7 year old daughter has been begging me to take her with me. I've put it off because I didn't think that she would make it. Finally, I promised that she could try on Saturday. So we rode my favorite ride to the pond 6.3 miles each way. Including the time spent feeding the ducks, it took us about 3 hours. Slow to the point of insanity, but she was so happy and so proud that she made it the whole way.

    Nice! I better tell my 8yo she needs to get it in gear we only go like 2 miles to the park.
