Giving and receiving

Hmmm... tomorrow is the first day of 30 days of biking. It might snow pretty much every day this week. The snow is a bit of a slap in the face after getting out for a ride with my teammate Matt on Saturday, and then a nice little ride to the falls with my cute nephews on Sunday.

After returning the boys (they slept over, and we went to the Angry Catfish to read over donuts and coffee this a.m.) to their parents, I went and donated blood.

And then I switched gears entirely and went to the Aveda school, where a nice student named Juan gave me a facial (Aveda facials apparently involve a foot massage, a scalp massage, and a lot of neck and shoulders, your face is just part of the picture). He told me he loves doing it because it makes people happy. I'm a sucker and fell for his “you should do this regularly" pitch, despite the fact that some things about it could've been better. I want Juan to succeed and have lots of practice before graduating. So, guess what I'm doing in early May?

Here's hoping for some long biking days before then, making my face feel as though it wants to be nurtured.
