FINALLY THE SUN HAS ARRIVED. WHAT A GLORIOUS WEEKEND. IT WAS SUCH A SURPRISE GIFT TO US ALL. ALL THAT WAS FORCAST WAS RAIN AND IT ONLY DID AT NIGHT. WE WENT FOR A FEW MOTORBIKE RIDES AND EVEN WENT ON THE SKIFF FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. WOW. MY SPRING HAS FINALLY ARRIVED. I JUST HOPE THAT SUMMER DOESN'T TAKE AS LONG. :):):):):)

IS THE RAIN EVER GOING TO STOP??? I KEEP SAYING THAT IT IS BETTER THAN SNOW, BUT THAT IS GETTING OLD, EVEN TO MY EARS. A CHURCH ON THE WAY TO WORK HAS A SIGN--"NOAH HAD FORTY DAYS". THE CAPE COD TIMES HAD A PICTURE OF A LIFEGUARD STATION COVERED WITH SEAWEED IN THE WAVES AND RAIN. IT WAS LABELED MARCH 85, 2005. WILL THE SUN EVER COME OUT??? WE CAN ALMOST USE THE JETSKI IN THE BACKYARD. I JUST SIT ON MY BIKE IN THE GARAGE. OH WELL, IT IS BETTER THAN SNOW!! AND TO TOP IT OFF, THE RED SOX GOT SWEPT MY THE BLUEJAYS AND NOW HEAD TO THE EVIL EMPIRE YANKEES. BUT THE GOOD NEWS, GREAT ACTUALLY, IS THAT TROY BROWN SIGNED WITH THE PATROITS---YEAH!!!!!!!!!! TEDY BRUSCHI SHOULD NOT PLAY-ASSISTANT COACH MAYBE-AND WITH JOE ANDRUZZI GONE-WE NEED TROY. MY FAVE WILLIE MCGINIST IS NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER.
RAIN RAIN GO AWAY, COME AGAIN ANOTHER YEAR!

well, the riding has ben going well. the other day i road it to work and had the experience of running out of gas on the way home. i was going 55 mph and the bike just stopped. so i pulled over and checked the gas---just a little. i put it on reserve and continued home. a new experience! maybe next time i'll know.
i wonder if it will ever be warm. it is still cold in the morning-46 the am. not beach weather yet. will we ever have a spring or summer. on may 18th it hailed so hard in parts of massachusetts that it collected and looked loke snow---MAY 18TH!!!!! what is our world comming to?
i guess i have to apoligize to someone. i get so tired after work and the child doesn't help much. but i think that we are both pmsing. poor rick.

I JUST PROFF-READ THE LAST BLOG. I FEEL COMFORTABLE ON THE BIKE AT 52 MPH, NOT 62.
TODAY FOR MOTHER'S DAY ABBY MADE ME THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT. IT IS A FISHBOWL FILLED WITH SAND AND SHELLS. THEY ARE ARRANGED WITH A LARGE PIECE OF SEA GRASS THE HUGS THE INSIDE OF THE BOWL. SHE EVEN GLUED SAND TO THE RIM OF THE BOWL. IT REALLY IS SUCH A LOVELY AND THOUGHTFUL GIFT THAT COULDN'T BE NICER IF IT WAS BOUGHT.
RICK IS DOING BETTER. I GO BACK TO WORK TOMORROW- THANK GOODNESS. I GET BUMMED OUT AT HOME UNLESS WE ARE ON VACATION. I'M WORKING ABOUT EVERY OTHER DAY SO I'LL BE AROUND FOR RICK. HE STARTS OUT-PATIENT THERAPY ON FRIDAY. HE THINKS HE'LL BE READY TO DRIVE---NOT!!!!!

TODAY I DECIDED TO BE BRAVE AND TAKE THE BIKE TO THE REGISTRY IN FALMOUTH TO GET MY NEW LICENSE-THE ONE WITH THE "M" ON IT. I WENT OVER A METAL BRIDGE-NOT FUN- AND EVEN WENT ON THE HIGHWAY. I ALMOST GOT MESSED UP ONCE OR TWICE WITH THE GEARS, BUT NOTHING BIG. I WAS TO AFRAID WHEN I HIT 60 ON ROUTE 28, BUT FELT OK AT ABOUT 62. I EVEN MADE MYSELF GO BACK OVER THE DAMN BRIDGE AGAIN. IT MAKES YOU AND THE BIKE DO A FINE WIGGLE. BUT I DID IT!!! NOW I FEEL LIKE I CAN TAKE THE BIKE TO WORK SAFELY.

RICK IS DOING WELL. HE WENT OUT WITH ME THIS MORNING, BUT IT WAS A BIT TOO MUCH. HE IS WALKING BETTER AND IS BENDING THE KNEE MORE. HE THOUGHT THAT HE COULD MOW THE LAWN ON THE TRACTOR, BUT NOT YET. HE EVEN THINKS HE COULD DRIVE NEXT WEEK, BUT THE PHYSICAL THERAPIST EVEN SAID NO. HE'S A MALE, SO RICK BELIEVES HIM. NO CHANGE THERE.

RICK HAS FINALLY HAD THE SURGERY. HE IS DOING WELL, BUT ADMITTLY IS BEING DIFFICULT AT TIMES. HE SAYS THAT I WAS ALWAYS LIKE THAT WHEN I HAS SURGERY. I TEND TO DOUBT THAT. BUT WHATEVER... AT LEAST HE KNOWS HE IS BEING A JERK AT TIMES. HE IS TRYING TO BE INDEPENDENT, BUT IN THE WRONG WAYS-LIKE CARRYING A 2 LITER BOTTLE OF SODA AROUND. HE WILL TRY TO ADD A CUPHOLDER TO THE CRUTCHES. AT LEAST HE KNOWS HE IS BEING SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT.
THE BIKE THING IS GOING WELL. I AM PLANNING TO TAKE IT IN THE MORNING TO CATAUMET FOR RABBIT TREATS. I STILL NEED TO GO TO THE REGISTRY TO PICK UP MY LICENSE. I GOT AWAY WITH ONLY PAYING $30. EVERYONE ELSE PAID $45, I GUESS THEY CAUGHT ME. OH WELL.
