I have to be able to do what?!?!?!?!?!?!

Okay...so kind of a funny story. While filling out my mission papers, one of the questions asks if I would be able to "work 12 to 15 hours per day, walk 6 to 8 miles per day, ride a bicycle 10 to 15 miles per day, and climb stairs daily". Well, "work 12-15 hours a day" piece of cake! Walk 6-8 miles per day...according to the pedometer I wear, that is nothing! Climb stairs daily...already do. Ride a bicycle 10-15 miles per day...well, that could be a problem. See, I, being a freak of nature apparently, never learned how to ride a bicycle...so guess what I am going to have to do before April? AND, I better get "experienced" at it too. If I get assigned to a mission with bikes, I'll not only have to figure out how to ride...but in a SKIRT!!! YIKES!!! SO, wish me luck...and hope/pray/fast that I live to submit my papers!

Bahaha..You are so funny!! (and I'm not laughing b/c you don't know how to ride a bike..) You'll do fine and you have a few months to learn how to do it..it's all about balance! GOOD LUCK!

Riding a bike isn't all that difficult. Just try to avoid riding into the back of a parked motorhome like I once did (yes I saw it and no I didn't get out of the way in time). :) Sure, you posted two things but where are the pictures? J/K. Good luck with that whole bike riding thing. Tessa and Natalie can hardly wait to see their favorite Hargis Aunt (I have to qualify this as I would get my butt kicked by their favorite Biehn Auntie).
