Show and Tell Friday!

No, I haven't started decorating for Easter yet....I wait until after St. Patrick's Day at least!  I pulled this photo from the archives because I know Easter will be here soon and I can't wait to decorate!  I love decorating for Easter almost as much as I do for Christmas!

This has been a crazy week!  Last weekend my boyfriend and I went mountain bike riding...did I mention I bought a mountain bike? It was the first thing I bought when I found out I got a job and was no longer unemployed!   Anyway, we sort of cheated...we took our bikes up to the top of a really steep road in the back of his truck and rode down the back side of the mountain on the trail.  It was so much fun! Scary at times but fun!  When we got down we took my car back up the really steep road so he could go get his truck.  After I drove back down the really steep road, a warning light came on in my car! It said "TRANSMISSION FAULT"!  Ugh! Anyway...my car is in the shop now.  This week has been filled with finding a good deal on a rental car...not an easy task in Silicon Valley!  They told me the rental car prices are so high because there is a convention in town this week and there is a shortage of cars! Ugh! Now I'm waiting to hear what is wrong with my transmission.  I love my Jaguar but they are known for their transmission problems.  Worst case..it's going to cost me $2,500 for a total rebuild but the mechanic said it may not be that bad! Fingers crossed!!!!  At least this happened after I found a job! I think I wouldn't be able to stop crying if this happened when I was unemployed!  

So this is the pic of me with no make-up and bed-head hair, all happy...before my transmission went out...

I have to say...Mountain Biking is a BLAST!!!  I need to thank Dan for turning me on to this great sport!  The day after this photo was taken we actually got a better workout and road up a really steep mountain!  I did pretty good but I had to get off my bike a couple times to walk it. My goal is to make it up all the way riding..which will help in my second goal...have toned legs by summer!
