I work as a school nurse, but my real joy and satisfaction comes from being my husband's wife and my kids' mom. This blog shares bits and pieces about my life.

Is This Totally Irreverant?
Today I road tested a new bike. It is a tri bike (time trial bike) as opposed to the road bike I currently ride. There are a few differences, mainly you stay in the aero position for most of the ride and your shifters are out in front. It also doesn't corner quite as well as a road bike and the tires are more of a racing tire. Unfortunately for me as I was out riding it started to rain. I had just finished a big climb and was facing a pretty twisty descent and me, not being a fast descender, was a little nervous about being on this new bike and facing wet roads. So I said a little prayer that the rain would stop so that I could get down the hill without worrying about wet roads. Okay, so the prayer was really more of a pleading, but the rain did stop. I was so grateful. In fact, I showed my gratitude by stating out loud, "Heavenly Father, You ROCK!" Then I thought that maybe that wasn't very respectful so I said more quietly, "Thank you Heavenly Father for hearing my plea and stopping the rain."
PS The bike was great.

That's fantastic! And I'm sure that the Big Guy wasn't offended at all. Did you get the bike? (Is that the one from the pictures?)
