Leslie Nord's Random Thoughts on Friends, Family and Life

I never was much of a writer - more like a rambler that easily gets lost in a tangent. My blog lets me go out on those tangents any time I want to. So remember, life is like a roller coaster: sit down and hang on. Sometimes you'll want to scream, sometimes you'll puke, but give it a chance and you'll find it can be a lot of fun.

Instead

July 13, 2007 by leslie Leave a Comment

Instead of reading my blog, head over and read Megan’s Blog. Then after you do, perhaps the following comments might make sense.

One of the birthday present suggestions we made for Megan for her birthday this year, was to send her to a motorcycle training course. She only had one opportunity to try and ride her motorcycle. The thing was a little too big for her at the time and she was afraid of it.

When she got the motorcycle she was so excited. She thought it would be something she and her father could do together. I think after the first attempts at trying to ride (drive) an 1100cc motorcycle scaring her to death, she never really pushed the issue. I supposed it didn’t help that I wasn’t real happy with the whole thing. All Megan wanted was to be able to do things with her father. She used to talk about riding bicycles and roller blading with him.

All she really wanted was to be able to do things with him, for him to spend time with her. That’s all. Life’s too short, somebody had better wake up before it’s gone.

Those of you who were betting that my knees would be the first "metal" replacements, you lost. I now have a bit of titanium in my cervical spine. I wonder if the doc will give me a pic of the post-op x-rays?

Those who know me, know to send lavender roses and daisies.
