Houston..., we've got a problem.  I was all psyched to get on this--dug the trainer out, brought the bike, trainer tire on. And while I still think I could pedal okay, the problem is: I can't get on.  Talk about a tease! I guess I hadn't considered that part of it. I can't get my bad/right leg up over the seat & top tube, and from the other side I don't want to put all my weight on my bad leg while twisting around to get my good leg over top from that side. Bummer. |

Hi Everyone,
I've been busy these past months trying to create a "new normal" from a life that got completely broad-sided. Ya never know just how tough you are til tested, that's for sure.
Today is "Grandbaby Eve". Daughter will deliver Grandchild #5 tomorrow morning. Her last day of work was yesterday so I am headed over to have coffee with her and take "big sister Ella" to preschool.
Prayers for a positive delivery for Mom and Babe would be most appreciated.
Have a great day.

Hey Cyndy! Great to have you back!
jdd2-- I agree with Marty, get one of those kitchen step stools. You could also position your trainer under a ceiling joist and rig up a small winch, pulley, and harness.
You would be totally dependent on you wife however to get off.

Hey Cyndy! hugs to you girl.
doug, please give a hug of encouragement to Chris. Wow, bummer indeed.
jdd - the mounting block sounds great except for the trying to get off and falling sideways. sigh.
It's Thursday in the new Canada. I am somewhat perkier than I was yesterday, but still dead tired all in all. Remind me to work less.

Mornin'Afternoon.....
Somehow missed the mornin'.....
Tables turned, now playing nursemaid for Barb. I think everything has finally caught up with her. The last 2 months, hundreds of miles of driving, hours of waiting, then back to the crisis mode and the trenches of her job as a social worker. She went to see her Dr. this morning.
Big hug to Cyndy.....great to "see" you!
DAMMIT Bill......there went another cup of coffee. Don't know how much more this monitor can take.
Sure enjoyed not traveling last weekend, but back we go this weekend. Monday will be busy with 4 procedures, including biopsy #5.

You're not a kid at 33
Play around you loose you wife
Play too long you loose your life." ) |

Bummer. No problemo!  $79.99 at Walmart. (once you get used to it, you may never go back!) |
