Sleep . . .

. . . it is a beautiful thing. I went to bed last night at 8:35, pushing aside all work related things that could possibly be done to try and get caught up on good, old fashioned sleep. In all the running around to get things ready lately, I feel like I have been burning the candle at both ends. I slept in until 7:00, laugh as you might, soon, I will be back on the wake up at 5:00 AM program which is going to hurt for a while.

Preparations are coming along at Rise & Shine. I have some more kitchen utensils that were needed since everything there was pizza specific. I have signage on order and on the way so in the near future, passing by, people will be able to tell that the shop is there. Over the past week, I have played the roll of painter, junior trim carpenter, hack plumber, cash register programming specialist. I am really looking forward to the day when the majority of my activity is devoted to running the cafe/biscuit kitchen as opposed to everything involved in setting it up.


I have some much needed incentive to stay on top of training. Above is the Blue AC1SL, the team ride for next year. We have a whole bunch of new sponsors lined up for this coming year and some new additions to the team. I hope I can hold up my end of the "being fast" bargain!
