Forgot a few things

1) I was all ready to leave work tonight. Had the money counted, deposit bag dropped, lights off etc and went out to find a rear flat tyre on my bike. That sucked. I had to go back in and fix the flat before I could leave. When you've worked on bikes all day and want to leave, having to go back in and work on bikes (or a [even my own] bike) even more sucks.
2) My paternal grandmother had a stroke and is on a feeding tube and breahting machine. She won't be alive much longer. Well, she's not really alive now, just hooked up to some machines; that's not living it's in limbo.
3) I made a big pot of black beans. The cooked over two days for a total of about 8 hours. You have to cook beans r e a l l y s l o w. Plus they soaked for about 7 hours before ever being cooked. I had beans and ride for dinner (and will have for lunch/dinner for a few days) and it rules. Cheap, filling, good and good for you (read: me).
4) I love my wife. She lights up the room when she comes in. She ALWAYS greets me with a smile. First thing in the a.m. (I get up a few hours before her to train, but she usually is getting up right around when I am getting back from riding), and when she gets home form work (she works evening @ the IU athlete learning center). I sometimes wonder 'why is she so smiley?' It's because she's happy to see me. I like that.
That's it for now.

Look at you! Blogging stuff about your sweet wife (and beans)! I enjoyed this post! Thanks for reading mine as uninteresting as it is.
