BAG LADY


Tonight , I went for a bike ride at Waterfall Glen with Iron Snoopy. When I got home and took the bike hitch off my SUV and raised the hatch to put it in , i realized something. I had become a Bag Lady. My life had become whatever bag that I need to pull of of the back of my car.

There were at least 6 large gym bags in the back of my car. The was one for toiletries for showering / blow dryer and personal items. There were 2 biking bags including one for outdoor biking and one for spin. My run bag, Swim bag, bag for work, and emergency extras rounded off the batch. I feel like that I live my life out of the back end of my car.

Updated water temperature from Galena is 57 degrees.

Wadlling with my bags.............

I have spilled out of my bags and now have a collection of bags and bins. I've got the gym bag, swim bag, and a bin full of extras--jackets, Gatorade, bike tools. Just found you and looking forward to reading more!

I feel the same way, but I just call myself a sherpa...as haul everything around.

It's not just me, then. Although I don't have quite so many as you--one for general gym time, one for swimming, one for cycling.

Aren't bags wonderful?

Too funny!! I'm glad I'm not the only one, either!! Hey, bags work to keep all the stuff sorted.

Now I'll need to count mine....oh my!

Oh, good, I'm not alone! Between my husband and myself, we have bags for everything, and for each car!!! Nothing like being prepared!

Ah, the life of an athlete. I've been living out of one gym bag or another for 20 years now. I have more bags than shoes.
