Here's a toast to your ferocious determination, strength, fortitude and magnificent Spirit. <br /><br />Thoughts and prayers are with you as you heal, Deb. I think Sue is on to something, here. Is there some kinda rule in the Universe that your friends can't ride miles for you and gift them to you? I think not. <br /><br />Official Proclamation: I'm gifting you my sixty mile day for August and subtracting it from my total for the month/year. <br /><br />Because I can. And you're worth every single mile.<br /><br />Hugs, Deb.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-59730730458890569952012-08-02T14:13:58.232-06:002012-08-02T14:13:58.232-06:00Thank you, Sue.

So sorry to hear that you've been in ...Oh, Deb. So sorry to hear that you've been in pain and unable to ride (now I understand a certain comment about mileage envy that you made a few weeks back).<br /><br />You may have just gone through a dormant phase, but, like your plant, you WILL be back (and peppery as ever). I know you will.<br /><br />Boy, can I relate to the difficulty of sitting WITHOUT crossing one's legs! If anyone can break that habit you can, O Queen of Determination. :)<br /><br />I'm sorry too about the break of your streak - you've been a real inspiration to me in that regard. My secret cycling goal for this year (though now I guess it will be secret no longer) has been to ride just ONE 60-mile day. I've been telling myself for the last few months, "If Deb can do 60 miles on a regular basis, I can surely work up to doing it at least once." Oh how I wish I could have ridden it for you this last month! (And somehow have made it count towards your streak.)<br /><br />Your bear in the tree is very like you: climbing, going in unexpected directions, giving surprise and delight to others. And your little crochet bears are like you too: beautiful, colourful, and indestructible.<br /><br />Welcome back, dear friend. :)Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-28788937200524304842012-08-02T11:42:10.339-06:002012-08-02T11:42:10.339-06:00Thank you, Chris and Bill.

I've pedaled more than most people ever want to, and I've seen such incredible things along the way.<br /><br />I plan to shoot those tiny bears for hours when my good lens, the macro, comes back from the shop. (Impact damage from the wreck back in March.) It's been in the shop since before Ride the Rockies.<br /><br />I don't know what I plan to do with the little bears after I finish photographing them. They are just something to do while I can't ride.Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-79710628378681457822012-08-02T09:20:53.312-06:002012-08-02T09:20:53.312-06:00PS Your little crocheted bears are cool.

(What will you do with all of those cute darlings?)<br />Hurrah for good doctors, and yoga, and feet flat on the floor. Hurrah for desk breaks. (Have you thought about a standing desk? They help me.)<br />Hurrah for short bike rides, too.<br /><br />And for what it's worth, I think any month spent in bed rest for pain counts as a NON-MONTH, and doesn't count as a break in your streak. New month, New diagnosis, New rules. Same streak. :)<br /><br />Feel better soon. HUGSChrishttp://mrscwmouse.xanga.comnoreply@blogger.com
