Good News

Got some quite good news. Not telling everybody yet, and we've suspected all week, but a + test today confirmed it. We're pregnant! What a great anniversary gift! Not much for symptoms except some tenderness and hunger. Trying to find a midwife and doc now. :)

More rides, more excitement

We got enough fuel (pellets) for the year, tried no-knead bread, it was wonderful. And, this "cycle" is a little late - maybe this is the one! Going to try again on sourdough - we'll see how it works out. I was counting on the weather turning colder so we'd have a good excuse to have it a little warmer in here, but we don't have that excuse. OH, got news that I may get a big job that'd be steady work thru the beginning of the year. That is certainly welcome news!!

Impossible

.... to not have a smile on your face while mountain biking. It's beautiful outside, fresh air, dodging trees, it's the best. Pics from a previous trip to the same location - didn't bring the camera this time, didn't bring the bikes that time in May. Great place to be during the spring and fall!! Ran into someone who had not been there before, and he had a smile that couldn't be removed with a sandblaster. So did we.

Busy is good

Went to Las Vegas to help a relative, had a great time, and it was surprisingly rejuvenating. Have one friend in a depressing work-related situation, but we'll try to keep her upbeat. Another friend is excited he's having a baby. I'm glad he's excited and ready to work at it! We'll see how our own attempts in that regard are doing in a few weeks. Hopeful! Hubby and I are going for a mountain bike ride tomorrow. Gotta get some good exercise, and now is the most beautiful time to do it. It's not too hot, the leaves are turning (one good thing about living at elevation, is there's a continual show of leaves - starting at the top and working its way down. Green yet in the valleys), and it won't be too dusty because it rained last week. I'll come back with tired lungs and legs!
