I'M NOT A QUITER....


HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ME..........
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ME..........
It was a beautiful day. Sun shinning. I think there may have even been some birds chirping. 
Everyone was to meet at SISTER'S house to have brunch. We all know if she is cooking it will be good.  
DANGER GIRL and I had great plans for the day. We would start off by having DANGER GIRL'S HUBBY pickup all the munchins and take them to SISTER'S house. Then we would get on our bikes and feel the wind in our hair. 
Although I was a little dehydrated and tired from the previous evenings events the ride was great. As we knew the food was great and of course the drinks were flowing. Even my LITTLE MUNCHIN was having a good time. DANGER GIRL was a little cranky. At one point she said she was going to get waisted and not bike back. Of course I thought this was just a silly notion. Why would anyone do that. Biking is great. I mean after all there are no kids on the trail. (At least not our kids.)
Instead of getting waisted DANGER GIRL decided to take a nap. I on the other hand kept right on trucking thinking I was untouchable. You know after DANGER GIRL woke up she had the dynasty to say, "FEMALE JIM, are you going to bike home." She said it with total attitude like I was drunk. hmmmm. 
Well apparently there some parts of my mother's day I missed. Like passing out at SISTER'S house and getting pictures with everyone's asses. Like telling everyone I was going to bike home after they insisted I get a ride. Like falling in the bushes while biking on the trail home. Like loosing DANGER GIRL on the trail.
I do however remember running into the side of a bridge and almost running into some trees along the trail. I also remember telling myself that I had to concentrate with everything I had otherwise I would not make it home. 
Low and behold I made it home. My TEENAGE OFFSPRING was amazed that I was able to bike home. After all I could barely walk in the door. 
I did call DANGER GIRL after I got home to find out why she disappeared while we were biking. She proceeded to tell me that I am not a good team biker and hung up on me. So off to bed I went. 
Personally, I thought it was a good Mother's Day. After all, I might be stupid but I'm no quiter. I set out to bike home and I made it. It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it. And thank god I made it home with my head still attached.

It's all DG's fault for not keeping up with me.
