I read back less than 20 of my entries, to March 2008, when I had just bought the Schwinn and done a beach ride. I couldn't have imagined that 14 months later I would be biking over 500 miles in a week. Wow. I am impressed with myself, so there!

I did it, I did it, I did it! I rode that hell out of the AIDS/LifeCycle, rode every mile I was allowed to ride (there were 85 I wasn't able to ride because they closed the route that day) and managed to do it in relative good cheer. Yeah to me and thank you to you - to those of you who cheered and sent checks and cheered some more. Thank you! ( Read more... )

Last you heard from yours truly, I was hoping against Prop 8 and for Obama and making a webpage for the AIDS/LifeCycle. I got one wish and got the webpage up and running successfully. I heard that there's a good chance the court rulings on Prop 8 will come out during the AIDS/LifeCycle in June. It's coincidence, not deliberate, but an ( Read more... )

So I had to google "Lili Rides" just to see if my page came up at all. Nope. If it did, it was buried deep beneath the porn links. Way deep below Lili riding all sorts of things. So, the new link is http://www.tofighthiv.org/goto/liliRead more... )

Lili does ride, or rather, Lili Hopes to Ride, but that doesn't make a very strong statement now, does it? In any event - I am signed up to ride AIDS Life Cycle 8, the amazing and challenging ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles, 545 miles in 7 days, May 31 to June 6, 2009. It's a challenge, a personal best goal for a cause. And I am bound and ( Read more... )

Wow. Yikes. That was intense. But I know I passed the teaching evaluation portion, and I'm pretty damned sure I passed the written test, and I know for sure I got a pass on the paper and presentation, and I am 90% sure I passed the practical/demonstration portion. At least I knew, and could do a reasonable rendition of, the exercises I was ( Read more... )

Is here. I am ready, I am not ready. I really can do this.

Here goes....

It's almost Pilates D-day. Test time. The FINAL exam. Well, the final exam before the certification exam. Beginning in less than a week, the final intensive 4-days and exams. So, what am I doing? Checking out everyone's live journal posts (far more interesting than mine), laundry, a little phone time, dinner, give the niece a back rub. Head ( Read more... )

Time off! More than a week, well, if you don't count the two clients I am going to see. And in that week I get lots of good times with people I really like, plus the family holiday thingie, and a very special birthday party. I am very lucky this holiday. Very very very lucky ( Read more... )
