It is 8:57 a.m. Like most teenagers, Jessie is still in bed sleeping. She continues to sleep despite the fact that I let the dogs in her room and gave them the "Wake up Jessie" command. I have to give them credit. They tried really hard, though.
Fred is out fishing this morning. His alarm went off at 5:15 a.m. He managed to make enough noise to wake both Jonathan and myself up at 6:00. I begged Jonathan to give me another 30 minutes of peace.
I finally gave up and decided to make the most of a bad situation. I whipped us up a cup of morning sunshine. Pure bliss. Orange Banana Cream Smoothie. Jonathan and I sat at the table enjoying our toast and smoothie. He declared that it was the best smoothie he had ever had. Then he added, "besides a chocolate smoothie, of course." I would tend to agree with that assessment. Except that a chocolate smoothie would really be classified as a chocolate shake.
I enjoyed an entire HOUR of the Today Show. I think Jonathan was a little annoyed that I was watching the news, but he humored me and watched along. We kept hearing about the beautiful weather today, so we decided to take advantage.
At 8:00 a.m., we headed out on a bike ride. My bike had a low tire, so I quickly switched to Jessie's bike. Bad idea. She is 5' tall and I am 5'5". Not only that, but her bike probably hasn't been adjusted since last fall when she was much shorter. As a result, we started riding and I realized that my knees must have been up around my ears. The gears were not at a comfortable setting for me, but I didn't want to mess with them. I think that would be pretty rude to borrow someone's bike and then change everything for my comfort. Anyway, I found some muscles in my thighs that I didn't know existed. It was a beautiful morning though. Perfect for a bike ride. Jonathan and I had a great ride.
