I got a bike for Christmas!
I've wanted a bicycle of my own for several years now, but it needed to be cute and fun. I found what I wanted, but new it was $570. This is not realistic. Remember, I don't like excercise and I sure don't have that much money to spend on a basement dust collector.
But two days before Christmas, the wonder that is Craigslist came to my aid. It was a Christmas miracle!! The exact bike I wanted, with the rear rack and handlebar tassles included. All for $350--which is just a little more than I'll get this month for my "wellness benefit" (sick time buy-back). What better way to celebrate my wellness than with beautiful retro biking goodness?
I'm wondering if I can knit (and felt?) panniers for the back so I can cruise to the farmer's market every Saturday for fresh veg. Seems like a worthy thing to try, although my husband thinks sewing them would be better.
Now if it would just stop raining...
