People Think I'm Crazy

Atleast my husband thinks I'm nuts. I went for a bike ride today and decided to take a ride on the trails that run through the fields. Now there are miles and miles of them on hundreds of acres of private property. Who knows who is out there? And if something happened, no one would know.
Now I feel that I'm sorta wise about this kinda stuff. I stop and listen, I check the trail for fresh tracks. It didn't appear that anyone else was out there. I was very very careful. But still.
But that was not problem, the problem was I did not print out the Google earth map of the area so I got lost. And the sun was getting lower and lower. So I break away from the main trail and head off east so I'll move towards the direction I need to be going. Then after a mile or so the off trail I took ends. I say fuck it, and get off the bike and start pushing it through the woods. Then I see the creek, and have na idea where I am. I pick up the bike and get it across the creek and keep going through the woods.
Turns out I was way closer to home than I thought. It was a short ride back to the house. Not one person I know would have done something like that. Just head off into the woods on a trail all alone. But I used to do that all the time back home up north.
Why did I do it? Well, I love trail riding on the mt bike, finding new places to ride, discovering stuff. And I'm used to it.
And there is the fact that I miss the body in the picture above. 13 years ago, that body was mine. Check out those legs and the 6 pack abs. That bod was the result of mt biking 12 miles a day for over a year. Every morning and the route had a few real nasty hills. Leg killers. I never got used to them hills. It about killed me every time I went up them.
So I want that body back. I keep forgetting it took a year to get it. Actually it was a result of many years. I've let myself go worse than I have ever been. I have been very good with the diet. I can't believe I'm so determined. I can feel my body changing. Bad thing is I have no energy but that's to be expected eating as little as I have been. I want to get down to 122 or so, then I'll start eating more carbs and protein and get down to serious working out with weights. That's the plan anyway, right now I'm trying to burn off some fat.
I probably won't write tomorrow. Breakfast with hubby and then work, and then I have to leave to go to Jenn's for a jewelry party. I remember my mom used to have and go to those Sara Coventry parties back in the 70's. Leave it to Jenn to bring that back. She does these things to get the free stuff the hostesses get. She lives in this big big $$ house and lives this high end life and has all these ways to get free stuff. Cracks me up.
I bought a new pair of furry boots tonight. Got them for less than a 1/3 of their actual price.
By the way, I love my husband.
