The First 100 Miles

I'll Be Back Soon - I Promise

We're still at level 9.5 here on the stress scale at my house as we try to sell it before the deal on our new house closes.  We did get an offer on Sunday night and, after some price negotiation, we did accept.  It's still conditional on financing and a home inspection which is being done on Thursday so I won't be celebrating until it's all final but we're getting a lot closer.

Once my house is sold I promise that I am going to renew my deidcation to the blog.  I miss interacting with you guys on a regular basis and once my life is back to normal a little bit I'm going to be back to blogging regularly.  However, I've decided to expand the scopy of the First 100 Miles beyond just the world of cycling.  Hopefully beginning next week I'm going to be blogging regularly, still about cycling because I'll always be a huge fan, but also about life, kids, politics, writing, television, books, food, wine, chocolate, and anything else that's on my mind.

See you soon!

Craziness

Hello all.  I'm sorry that I've been so absent lately. 

As usual, my life has been filled with craziness.  Grace started Grade One today (she's growing up...sniff) and a couple of weeks ago my husband and I decided to check out a local open house and we ended up buying the friggin' place two days later.  And, while I'm thrilled about the new place, we committed the ultimate real estate sin by buying before selling our place so now we're desperately trying to get our place ready to go on the market this Friday and get it sold asap.  Saldy, it was a Labour Day weekend filled with cleaning and fixing rather than swimming and drinking.

Anyway, I have no idea about what's going on in cycling.  Haven't been on my own bike in ages.  Hopefully once we get past this stress life will return to something like normal.

Take care!
