Well…feeling a little crappy today with my stomach still giving me fits and I’m not sure what that is about…slept okay last night but no dreams to speak of but that is the new normal around here…it was a pretty nice day and had a great ride out and back to pool…which I lost for the second week in a row…and I got out to have a couple with G who I haven’t seen in a couple of months….and that started my night out a little early and could be why I feel a little slow this morning….I am looking forward to the Belgium/France game this afternoon and to having lunch with T….haven’t seen her for a few weeks and lunch should be fun…I do need to run some errands but I guess that will have to be moved til tomorrow….more later…

Well…running a little early today but there really is no reason for it…with the world cup on last week, I had to get out on the bike by 7:30 every day…but no game until tomorrow afternoon so I can kind of ease into the day today…my stomach gave me fits yesterday but it seems okay right now….not sure what that was about but it may have been from not eating enough….have to remember that even a big salad is not enough for a meal….still don’t feel that hot right now, though, but I’m sure it’s not from not eating enough….well…not sure but maybe….didn’t get anything else done but laundry and dishes and today will be the same with pool this aft…just can’t get started…I may have to take a day off the bike soon to let the legs rest….have been on it every day for almost 3 months now and that is a bit much…more later…

Well…as you can see, I’m running really late this morning with doing the bike ride first to get back here for the F1 race that starts in a few minutes…slept okay last night and felt really crappy when I got up and that made for a long bike ride…and only having a half cup of coffee before I went out didn’t help…didn’t do much yesterday but watch sports with soccer and races on…and I just remembered that the Tour de France is on, too, so I need to remember to watch that later….so today will probably be another veg day…at least for a while….I did get my berries for the traditional ice cream and berries this morning but that will wait until later in the week…more later….

Well…you know that I’ve talked about the store, Daily Deals before when I got 6 pounds of ground chuck for 6 bucks…and today, another deal came across my phone that I had to check out. They had 5 pounds of  fully cooked, smoked pulled pork on sale for 5 pounds for 5 bucks…and it even has bbq sauce in it already…so I got a 5 pound brick that is now thawing in my fridge so I can cut it up and put it in storage bags….when I did the math, and using a quarter pound per sandwich, that makes each one about 40 cents and that will make a meal for me…hope it tastes good, but how can you ruin smoked pulled pork?

Well….need to be running early today to get back here before F1 qualifying at 9…and then soccer starts at 10 but it is only 55 outside right now so I need to wait until 7:30 to go out…it was an okay day yesterday with all of the sports on and today looks the same…identical, actually, so it will be a good day….other than the sports, didn’t get anything else done but I will get some cleaning done today….the kitchen and bathroom need to be done and I should go on cobweb patrol, too….I just need to get motivated and that is the hard part….my back has been giving me fits the past few days and it is starting again this morning…not too bad so far but just annoying…okay…need more coffee and to read a little news…more later…

Well…need to get going early today since it is a huge sports day…F1 and soccer on all day and it all starts at 9…slept okay last night and don’t feel too badly today…the pain from working on the car is abating so I can move without wincing and that is a relief….I did get a good bike ride in yesterday and eating more appeared to give me more energy in my legs…we’ll see about today…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and today will be the same….I am looking forward to Belgium playing Brazil this aft and I really hope Belgium wins….this world cup has been a good one and two of my teams are still in it so that is cool…okay, need to have more coffee and get ready to get on the bike…more later….

WeIl….thought I’d come back this morning and do a short one about the free Neil Young concert from last night….it was similar to the one from earlier in the year that he did from Omemee, Ontario, a town that Neil lived in as a kid. Lot of just Neil wandering around the stage and picking up instruments in a seemingly random way and the songs seemed to be random as well…he went way back into the Buffalo Springfield catalog and did a lot of songs I have never seen him do before and that was an unexpected treat…as was the electric version of “Ohio” that he did with an alternating quiet/screaming loud arrangement that was just too cool….he even went into how he wrote the song after seeing the iconic photo on the cover of Time Magazine of the woman kneeling next to a dead student at Kent State that he saw lying on a table in the rain…..it was a very personal performance that I was blown away by…he even called David Crosby a great friend…maybe it’s the first step in their reconciliation? Hope so….

Well…not sure why I’m getting going on time today…don’t have much to do but work out and ride the bike so I guess I could wait but habit is pretty strong…slept okay last night but feel pretty slow today so the coffee better start to work soon….I did get the plate off the car yesterday but I am sore everywhere again today so I may have to take something for it before the bike ride…many new muscles in use that all hurt…I did get to see Neil Young’s live concert last night and it was great…will probably do one on that later in the day…didn’t get anything else done yesterday but I think I’ll clean some today since I don’t have to cook and there is no soccer on again until Friday…I am hoping that we get the storms that are predicted later today…that would be somewhat entertaining…more later….

Well….it has been a heck of a lot of work this morning trying to get the old license plate off the car…even went out and bought some tools to do it but, in the end, I didn’t need any of it other than the big screwdriver…didn’t have one of those so it was a good 1.89 that I spent. Figured out this morning that I could just take a hacksaw blade and cut a new slot in the head of the screws and then use the new screwdriver to take them out…it worked for the first one but the second one just wouldn’t budge so I had to cut the plate off and get my vicegrips on the head to get it to turn…and it barely did. So, I have my new, weird numbered plate on the car now that I will have to memorize at some point….
