New Toy

I'm still a total kid at heart because I still loving getting toys. This time it was a lovely pair of rollerblades. I haven't been on blades in at least 9 years, but blading is like biking, once you know how it just comes back. I'm lucky that there are several nice, paved trails close to my house where I can safely blade. And yes, I do wear a helmet and am thinking about getting wrist guards just to be on the safe side since I am very klutzy. In true frugal style I got them for $90 off with free shipping and no tax. Gotta love internet shopping!! I also have to say that my new blades are much better then those I had as a kid. This are pretty much like high-top tennis shoes on wheels with a bit of ankle support vs. the plastic boot thingy I as a kid.
