My legs were already like jello and that hill was out of the question. |

At least with Tavern gets it over pretty quickly. |

I did HHH ONCE and I will never do it again! It was miserable. I might be able to ride on the IM Moo bike course in June, but it's going to be a pretty packed week with all the wedding stuff I have to do. |

I FINALLY bought some probiotics... gonna try them for a few weeks with everything else Im taking and see if I notice any difference... Just got to remember to take them now! I found it took a couple of months to see a difference. But I DID see a difference. I'm still taking them, in fact. Thanks for the info - I will stick with them til the bottle is done then and see what I think.. they have to be kept in the fridge so the first step will be remembering to take them every day! |

MotoQueen ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Good day Nibbs. Mel, I thought of you as I worked on my front yard this morning. Spent 4 hours raking, weeding, mulching. It is looking a lot better. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all the perennials I planted last year return. Judi, way to go with the long ride. I too would go miles out of my way to miss certain hills. |

Lots of yard work going on!Mel, I thought of you as I worked on my front yard this morning. Spent 4 hours raking, weeding, mulching. It is looking a lot better. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all the perennials I planted last year return. Judi, way to go with the long ride. I too would go miles out of my way to miss certain hills. I hope that your plants come out of dormancy too. I lost a hebe this year...It looked a bit like a dark brown tumbleweed when I chopped it off on Saturday. I still need to dig out its roots, but I will do that when I have something to plant in its place. |
