March 24th

Well….running a little late today and I just can’t get started…not sure why I feel so crappy this morning but I think part of it is the allergies that have flared up the past two days…slept okay last night but that really didn’t help how I feel now…could go back to bed if I could sleep but I know that won’t happen….had a nice lunch with T yesterday and that was fun…but, I didn’t get anything else done and that will probably happen again today…if my motivation level doesn’t increase, I can see just vegging the day away….but, I will get out on the bike later after the temp comes up enough…but that looks like it won’t happen until the aft with it being only 25 right now….not much to do today…don’t have to cook since I have leftovers but I may make some more pickles to have later in the week…and the bathroom needs work so that should be done but who knows? More later…

March 23rd

Well….it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done….slept okay last night but I feel a little crappy today and I’m not sure why…I did get out an hang out with my son and his wife last night and that was quite a bit of fun…haven’t seen them since the
SD concert last fall and that is just too long….I am still pretty irritated that he weather hasn’t broken into spring yet….40’s for highs are about 10 degrees colder than it should be and that keeps me from getting on the bike until the afternoon…and that means I won’t be able to ride today if I have lunch with T….I was going to clean yesterday but didn’t get to it but maybe I can do that this morning after coffee…..I am feeling more like I should take the morning off and just veg and that looks attractive right now….not much to do today….I do have an errand to run this morning but that is about it….more later….

April 22nd

Well…running a little late today and, as you know, it’s usually the grocery run on Thursday morning….and, yow, 75 bucks without any protein at all? I did have to get a bunch of other stuff since my supplies were running low but darn, 75 bucks? Oh, well….slept okay last night and feel pretty good today…I guess I can thank being good for 4 days in a row and my allergies having lessened some…but, my back is still bugging me…geez, I’m getting old….did get a nice bike ride in yesterday but didn’t get anything else done so…nope….not even going to say I’m going to get something done…don’t really need to so no guilt today….I did hear from my youngest son yesterday and I am hanging out with he and his wife for a while tonight…I guess they have trivia night at a place in Dutton that is just a short ways from here and it will be cool to see them….and Michigan plays tonight so that will keep me busy….more later….

March 21st

Well…running a little early today and it was another night of choppy sleep and getting up early…don’t feel too badly today, though, so I guess it wasn’t too bad…..and I was good again last night so that helps….it was an okay day yesterday but they had the water shut off here all day and that is annoying…and the wind was blowing over 20 all day so I skipped the bike ride to let my legs heal up a little…don’t think it did much good since they still hurt quite a bit today and I had cramps in my feet all night….and that is not really normal….probably should take some ibuprofen for it in a few minutes but I want to wait until just before the bike to help my hand cramps….and that won’t be until this aft since it won’t be warm enough until later….didn’t get much done yesterday but there is cleaning to be done today that I will get to…soccer is off for the week for the international break so that makes things a little more boring…but, F1 starts tomorrow and I need to figure out what channels it is going to be on this year….more later…

March 20

Well…running a little early today with not sleeping well and getting up early…and they are shutting the water off here for the day so that is a pain that I’ll have to deal with here in a few minutes…had an okay day yesterday and even had the top down on the car…and there is a reason for that that I’ll relate later….oh, and I won at pool….didn’t get anything else done but I will try to get some cleaning done today since I think I’ll skip the bike ride with not being able to shower after….and it is only 21 degrees outside so it will take forever for the temp to come up enough….and my back is acting up again so maybe it could use a rest….I do need to pay some bills today so that will keep me busy for all of 5 minutes….so there may be some vegging going on today….more later….

March 19th

Well…have been up for a while already but I’m moving pretty slow so far….just poured the first cup of coffee so that isn’t working yet and I wish it was….slept okay last night but I think I’m sore from the bike ride yesterday…it was the first day of going hard and taking a long ride so that is to be expected….it was nice to get out in shorts but that will be the last time for the next two weeks…it is going to be cold and I’m not sure I can take much more of it….I need spring to come soon…it is even supposed to snow next weekend so I think I’ll leave the winter tires on the car for another week….didn’t get anything done yesterday and I am not motivated to do anything today….I think I’ll leave that for tomorrow and just veg today….more later….

March 18th

Well….not sure where I’m running this morning…but, I did remember that it is Sunday…and that meant I had to go out and get the paper…and I read it already and it’s not even 8 yet…had an okay day yesterday and finally got out on the bike without a stocking hat…something I need to do again today but that won’t be until noon or so…may even be able to go out in shorts  if I wait….but that means I need to find something to do this morning…and the boredom is already bleeding in so there may be a little sense of urgency…nope, none at all….my right heel is finally healed for the first time this year and I have no pain when I walk and that is a relief…but, I have huge cramps in my hands when I’m on the bike and ibuprofen doesn’t help so I’m not sure what that is about….they kick in before I’m out a mile so that leaves 14 in pain…not much to do today….I should clean some and I might but I’m not sure when that will be….more later….

March 17th

Well…running a little late today and it’s because I just can’t get started….Just poured the first cup of coffee and it hasn’t had enough time to work so I guess I’ll have to ease into it again today…I did just notice that my right heel doesn’t hurt any more and that is a good thing…but, it’s going to take a while to get my walk back to normal since it has been so long that I have been favoring it…and my allergies are flaring up already and that is not a good thing…oh, well…slept okay last night but I don’t think that’s helping today…feel pretty slow today…had an okay day yesterday but the weather is still too damn cold for me…I mean we are already more than halfway through March and we haven’t had a nice day yet….I am itching to get out on the bike in shorts and to not have to warm the car up to melt the frost off the glass…not much to do today…the 12 hours of Sebring is on this morning and then there is basketball on that will keep me from being too bored…Happy St. Patrick’s day…..more later…

March 16th

Well…running a little late today with staying up to watch Michigan play…didn’t make it to the end of the game but just checked and Michigan won….so, I can continue to watch the tournament and not feel bad about it…had an okay day yesterday but didn’t get much done…again…but I did get the grocery run in and a nice ride on the bike so maybe that is something…but, it’s still too damn cold for it being the middle of March…I wonder when it’s going to warm up….looks like not until April….crap….still having a hard time figuring out what day it is when I get up…yesterday, I thought it was Sunday and all I had to do was to go out to get the paper…how I thought that, I don’t know….oh, well….I should clean the bathroom today but I may watch basketball again instead…who knows? More later…

March 15th

Well…running a little late today…the computer did an update overnight and I had to restart chrome and all the tabs that I normally have open and that takes a while…slept okay last night and feel pretty good today with being good the past three nights…have had a little bug the past few days and I started the day today with feeling warm and with a little cough….but, I don’t feel too badly so I’ll just let it do it’s thing….did get a good bike ride in yesterday but I may take today off depending on the temp…I think it’s only…okay, just looked at the weather and it just may be warm enough to go out later today…probably after lunch….I did get out to see G for a couple yesterday…and I now remember that it’s not that much fun anymore…oh, well….I am a little excited with the NCAA tournament starting tonight with Michigan at ten so I won’t see all of that game….not much to to today….going to make a pork stir fry for lunch and I should clean the bathroom but, who knows?  More later….
