Oct 13. omg

So I slept in till 10:30 or so. My mom had tried to get me up a couple of times to eat breakfast with everyone and i said I was gonna,but...yeah didn't happen. She kept telling me they went out to the fencing we put up yesterday. Well actually took down, moved, then put back up. They came back in and i heard one of my brothers mention that they were going to investigate this set of trails that are across the road from us. My dad has mentioned this a couple of times. I've been wanting to do it with the bikes. I got upset because it seemed like they were going to go without me, so I popped up and said I was going. So while I was making moves to get up they were going on about how my brothers touched the electric fencing lol and their reactions to it. They said," you should of did it!" To which I replied,"Yeah, I'm not that stupid." lol though to be honest I actually might have done it. I wish I could have gotten their reactions on pictures or something, because I hear they were quite funny.

Anyways back to the trail. So I get out of bed and and scramble to put some outdoor clothes on. On the way out I grab one of those single serving Pringles pack things and head out the door. That was my breakfast and I completely forgot to get something to drink. That was probably mistake number one. I head up to the barn and my dad was punmping up the tires to make sure they were all full of air. We haven't rode bikes in a good long while. We only had three bikes, because the rest were rusted so we got rid of them and only brought the three when we moved. There were four of us, so my dad said he would walk.

We start of pretty good. We went down the rode a little to get to the trail. I wait for everyone to0 catch up. It took awhile cause my older brother probably is te longest without being on a bike and he wasn't ever the best to begin with. Plus my dad was walking so we had to wait for him to catch up. That's pretty much what we did for awhile till we hit a dead end. At some point my older brother didn't want to do the bike anymore, so he gave the bike to my dad and he walked.

So we are wondering which path we want to take and I decided I want to go down around the cheese factory, because I thought there was this trail that may have led to town (mistake number two btw). I didn't want to go alone so one of my brothers went with me. My other brother and my dad went back I guess. So My brother and I went downhill to get to the path (that was the last downhill for a good long while). We get to the bottom and I see that there wasn't a path that I thought was there. So instead of going back up, we go up this little hill that leads straight to the cheese factory. Once we get up that there is a long driveway to get up to the road (btw we didn't ride this part we were very tired so we pushed the bikes up). That took a little bit, but we were pretty happy to get to the top. So, once again we hop on our bikes went about 20 feet and we had to get back off. It was uphill again, not a steep uphill, but uphill nontheless. On top of that we were going against a very stron wind. We walked almost the entire way down the road until the road got flat and then we got back on our bikes and start pedaling towards the turn. By this time I was abuot to just fall off the bike.

We get almosrt to the turn when we see our dad turn the corner and see us. My brother stopped to talk to him, but i just kept right on going around the corner until it started going uphill again and I just couldn't go anymore. My brother went on past me a minute later and my dad stopped. We talked awhile, but evetually I started again. I stopped once more to catch my breath yet again, but I got to the top of the little hill and it gave me enough momentum to get almost to the driveway. There was alittle hill to get to the driveway and I had to pedal a couple of times to make it, but make it I did. I felt like I had just did a marathon. Which is stupid, because it wasn't even that much, but I don't get a lot of exercise anymore so it just tired me out way too much.

Instead of stopping at the barn and dropping the bike off to walk down the hill do the house, I just kept right on going. As soon as I got as close of the house as I could I practically jumped off the bike. I don't even think it had completely stopped yet lol. There are like three steps to get up to the house and my legs were like lead. I'm sure if you would have saw it you would have laughed. It probably made a funny sight, but it was terrible. Somehow I made it to the kitchen and sat down. The only thing I could manage to get out through the heavy breathing was, "Get me drink!" lol. not very mannerly, but all I could say. My mom got me a drink and I disappeared to my room for awhile. It took me a good half hour for my breathing to completely regulate.

I tried to get on blogtv and type some, but my hands were shaking a little, so it made it a little difficult. So I went and got some food on my stomach. That felt really good btw. After that we really didn't know what to do. My dad took off work, because after all that who could work? PLus the day before we worked all day putting fence up. The brother that had been riding with me disappeared back into his cave he calls a room, not to be heard from till another day. My mom and my other brother go into to town. My dad decided that going around on the riding lawn mower and hauling him around in a wagon with a chair in it while he sipped a beer would be fun. I like driving it, so I said sounds good to me.

So we go do that and look at the fencing job we did yesterday. We get to the back pasture and there are all these huge limbs that my dad had to cut, because they were laying on the electric wire and that could cause it to short out or something like that. So we did that and we see my mom and brother puuling up. My brother came up with his riding lawn mower which he just got. Its an older one, but it goes faster than the one that my dad just got not long ago. We decided to have lawn mower races. My brother won all of them, because his just goes faster. Plus he can pop a willy/willie however you spell it on his.

Other than that I bent one of my fingernails back. It always hurts, but usually you just bend it back to where the long part starts. This time it bent back farther. It started bleeding pretty good. I stuck a bandaid on that I just took off a little bit before I started typing this.

So not as eventful a day as some, but it wasn't bad. Oh and I still haven't done my assignments yet. I should do them now, but I'm starting to get tired. :(
