Breaking the Barrier

[P-funk]

Screw that then....may as well eat a snickers and some candy corn.

 

[Jodi]

No.....I want a bar that I can take with me for day long bike rides that won't melt in 110 degree weather. That's why I thought the trioplex at first but they just don't appeal to me so I think I'll just go with cliff bar now unless you know of a better one.

What about Jay Rob Protein bars?

 

[Jodi]

I don't know

 

[P-funk]

what about payday bars??

 

[Jodi]

What about em?

 

[Monolith]

Mmmm... i want a milky way now. I havent had one of those in 5 or 6 years...

 

[P-funk]

What about em?

Nothing, they are just good. You should eat one of those on your bike rides.

 

[Jodi]

Won't that melt in my backpack?

I need something with high carbs. You guys should see the rides we go on. I'll post a pic of our last ride. We had fun. It was a full day trip and this was only 30 miles from my house It's so beautiful

 

[Jodi]

This is Apache Lake. This was last weekends day trip. Isn't it beautiful?

Damn Jodi, That looks amazing!!!

I loved it when I was in Neveda for some work, But Arizona looks Awesome.

I need to find a job there, and then convince the wife it would be a good thing

 

[Monolith]

That scenery is friggin awesome! I'd love to live out there (so long as i can still get a fast internet connection and theres a good gym nearby ).

 

[Jodi]

Now you all know why I love it here so much I have a view of the Superstition Mountains right from my house. I can bike ride to so many beautiful locations

I went to the chiropractor last week to have some things checked out. After an xray he found a 19mm hip rotation. He thinks I did it squatting but told me not to stop squatting. I remember last year when I was complaining about some hip pain/rolling while squatting I'm not squatting that heavy anymore but OMG does it ever feel weird now. I'm still going for adjustments but I squatted last night (light of course) and it felt like jello, but firm jello

 

[sara]

I'm sorry to hear that Jodi But I know you will be ok
You are a tough one

 

[Jodi]

It doesn't hurt or anything it just feels funny.

 

[Monolith]

Whats a hip rotation?

 

[Jodi]

I have a right external rotation of Ilium at 19mm You could see it in my xray's. It was freaky looking.

 

[Jodi]

Woohoo I leave tomorrow night for the wedding I can't wait to see my family again. I get so homesick so these short visits every other month or so really helps.

I'm so happy Scott is able to come with me. They like him alot from what they know of him but they don't see Scott often enough to really get to know him. This will be a nice opportunity for them all to get to know each other a little better.

 

[sara]

You have fun there
But we going to miss you here

Thanks dalila I will have fun. That must be hard being so far away from home I'm sure you enjoy every moment you get to spend with them though when you do see them. Quality time is more important than quantity.

Visiting my family ever few months has really helped me. I've moved several times away from my home state but always move back because I miss them so much. This time I seem to be much happier with my move. The funny thing is that its even further than I've ever been.

 

[dalila]

I know what you mean, sometimes one just clicks with the place, the people and the lifestye in that particular place. I love being in Malaysia we just clicked.. but still, being 18,000 km away from my family sucks! I try to look at that thru rosie glasses though, and I tell myself, hey, at least when I visit no one expects me to wash dishes LOL!

Oh, I don't know Sara, I'd have to try it first. Your very sweet and thank you but please don't buy me anything. That last dessert you got me was great but it took a while to finish
