As I took my new bike out for a ride today I realized how out of shape I am. After eight miles at an average of 14 mph I had yet to break a decent sweat, but my legs were burning. So my short half-hour ride would have to do.
On another note, Jess and I went to Immanuel Lutheran's school auction last night. We had planned on going throughout the night without bidding on anything. It was about halfway through the silent auction when we placed a bid on something. The item, and the rest of the items at that table, was closing within 3 minutes. I knew the family who had placed the starting bid before us and saw them sitting across the room. After strategically placing a bid the item closed.
We won our item. It feels nice, usually I am outbid at the last second on eBay, but here we won. I am sure you are all wondering what we won. Before I take all the fun out of the suspense I will say it is something that I need more than a new bike. I am absolutely awful at this activity.
If you have not yet guessed, we bid on and won a private dance lesson at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Brookfield. There is also another hour of time we get at the studio to practice what we learned. Now I will not make a fool of myself on June 26th.
Watch out world J. Smith will soon be able to dance without looking like a fool.

I am so glad that you finally got the bike that you have been talking about for the last few months. Now we just have to get one for me and we can start our fitness plan together!
Enjoy your spring break!!
Fred Astaire Dance? That's awesome. Maybe you can plan out a nice ballroom dance routine for your first song :)
Hope your break's going well!
