Training, hair, and paint - oh my!

Last Thursday, Pops and I attended our first indoor training session with the Team Dayton Race team. It was great fun! One of our team sponsors is a local gym, so they allow the team to have a training session each week in one of their classrooms. We bring our own bikes and trainers and the TD Training Coordinator leads everyone in a 2 hour training class. It's nice to get out of the basement and "ride" with other folks. And the best part is-- not even the fastest racer boy can "drop me" -- Whoo-hoo! I'm still planning to do my own basement training sessions on Tuesdays and weekends, but this will give me some variety.

My hair has really been bugging me lately. It's been flat and fly-away and I can't do a thing with it.

Old hair

So Saturday, I went to the beauty shop and got a body wave.

New Hair

I can't wash or style it until Monday (so the curl can "lock-in") so right now, I've got that 80s perm look going on.... but, I like it. I think it looks much better than what I had going on. Hopefully, after it "settles in", I will like it even more.

Several weeks ago, Pops and I decided we would tackle some home projects this winter when the weather was too bad to get out and ride. Today's weather was just that- BAD. It's been yucky, messy, rainy most of the day. So, while I stripped the wallpaper from the bathroom walls, pops tackled some painting.

We've got several more home projects to tackle, but I'm sure the weather over the next several month will allow us plenty of opportunity to get them done.
