Miserable bike week and only was able to ride one day.

Monday: Mom having some heart procedures and had angioplasty scheduled. Drove her in. I work 2 exits from the hospital so I took her car to work for a couple hours while they did the procedure. I get a call earlier then expected. They ended up stenting her (good). Spend the rest of the day with her in the hospital.

Tuesday I take off to take care of her. My Sis came up and staying a couple days with her. Mom doing great but no sleep Monday night and she is falling asleep at Kitchen table and we cannot get her to just go to bed. Sis and I go to town at her house, mow her 3/4 acre yard, house work etc to make sure it is all caught up to keep mom from trying to go do anything for at least a week.

Wednesday I got to ride. Cold in the morning but really nice in the afternoon. I sold my 454 powered Suburban a couple weeks ago and trying to replace it with a Toyota Previa that actually will get 20+mpg on the hwy and will haul bikes standing. Find a new ad for one on CL Shoot to the other side of Atlanta to go look at it. 96 Supercharged LE just like I wanted. Dealer replaced the motor 100k. Dual A/C that blows ice cubes power everything. Only thing it didn't have was the Sunroofs. Listed on CL at $2k. Asked what she would take for it and she comes back with $1500. I try not to look too interested but with the reasonably fresh motor and very clean body an interior it is already sold. Look at it some more point out some flaws and say "can I nickle and dime you some more?". She comes back with $1400. She talked herself down $600 as I never made an actual offer!

Drove Thursday so I could hit insurance agent and get a tag on the way home. I have NEVER had such a easy time at the DMV. Left my office at 4pm. hit my agent at 4:15 to pick up the insurance paperwork. At 4:20 I pull up to the DMV right across the street. No when I walked in. Pull ticket from the machine, number comes up before I even tear it off and I walk right up to a window. Only 2 "Share the road" tags left so if I had waited till Friday when I had a half day off I would not have got one. Do the title paperwork get my new tag and out the door at 4:35. Home on the couch at 4:45pm. Went and checked on Mom after dinner.

Rain Friday drove the van to work got called a Thief by my coworkers for buying the van so cheap.

Today will be spent servicing the van and fixing a few of the minor problems it does have so not getting my Sat Ride in.
