Well….running a little early today since I want to get the bike ride in before F1 qualifying at 9….and I have decided to not do the 100 miles today…my back already hurts today and that means it will be bad when I get on the bike…oh, I did win at pool….slept okay last night but lost one of my ear plugs over night and that really annoys me….I did get the slow cooker loaded already so that should be done by around three or so and I’m looking forward to a good meal later…haven’t been eating enough and that needs to be fixed….not much to do today….I do need to clean some but I am going to try to not feel guilty if I don’t…..more later….

Well….running a little late today and I just can’t get started…seems to be a pattern lately…I did get out to see C for a little while and that was fun…and I had to run the air in the car on the way home and it still is cold…for a 23 year old car, that is cool….yeah…I noticed….feel a little crappy today but I earned that one so I think I’ll just go with it and relax this morning…it is raining so I think I may have a day off the bike today….and if I do the 100 miles tomorrow, it may be a good idea to take the day off…..and just get the pain out of my legs….not much to do today….pool this aft but I don’t think I’ll do much else….more later….

Well…not sure where I’m running today and I really don’t care…had an okay day yesterday and I got a few things done so that was cool….finally got the bugs off the kitchen floor and got some laundry done…and I need to do that again today…still trying to get my winter stuff put away…just have had no motivation lately and today is starting out the same….at least my back is better and it hasn’t hurt at all in a couple of days…other than when I get off the bike…have been mulling a long, long ride for sat….thinking of trying to do 100 miles just for the idea of doing it…I’ve done 30 a couple of times so far this year with no problems but 8 hours on the bike is a little daunting…we’ll see….not much to do today…going to meet up with C for a couple with him coming into town this aft so that should be cool….and it looks like storms, too, so I won’t be too bored….more later…

Well….it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…again…slept okay but no dreams again and that is the new norm….I think the bug is almost gone but I still didn’t have much energy yesterday…was just exhausted most of the day and that has been going on for a few days now…it was pretty cold last night and it is still only 51 degrees right now so it looks like a wait to get out on the bike today….maybe I’ll have some toast for breakfast today to see if the tiredness is from not eating enough….not much to do today….I am going to try to clean today since the dust is getting pretty thick and it is quite annoying….more later…

Oh, happy first day of summer….

Well..getting moving early today since I got up pretty early…slept okay but on my right shoulder and it hurts like crazy today….and my lower back is stiff….cripes, I’m getting old….I did get some stuff done yesterday and I think that might be what is making some of the new pain in my back and shoulders….but, I think the bug is leaving finally and I do feel a little better this morning…still have the headache that I’ve had for a while but it is still not bad enough to take anything for it…man, this is just one big bitch session…not much to do today…I am going to clean the kitchen today with the dead bugs all over it and I think I’ll clean the new stove, too….more later….

Well…just wanted to do a short one on how I’m feeling right now…still feel pretty crappy today with just no energy and a huge headache that I’ve had for a few days now….I think I’m going to try taking something for the head here in a few minutes since it is so annoying…I did get the oil changed in the car this morning and it added almost 25 psi at idle so that was cool…and the oil that I use was on sale at Meijers this week…only 20 bucks for the 4 quarts I needed…I did look for the oil at the parts store but they want almost 9 bucks more for the same 4 quarts….the filter that I replaced felt like it weighed about 2 pounds with all of the dirt in it….so, it’s good I got that done today….probably won’t do much else today….just too fatigued…

Well…not feeling too hot today and I know it’s that little but I’ve had the past few days…my entire system is just a little off and that is a little annoying…slept okay last night but still don’t have a lot of energy today so I think I’ll just take it easy today…was going to change the oil in the car but just don’t feel like it…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and it looks the same today….might even take the day off the bike today with how I feel….only heard from two of the kids yesterday and that is a little annoying, too….oh, well…need to get some coffee and read a little news…more later….

Well….had a few thoughts when I was out on the bike today about Father’s day…nothing earth shattering but just some thoughts…it’s been almost 50 years since my father died at only 56 years old…younger than I am now and that has always been strange to me…I wonder if he thought about the same kinds of things that I do at this age? Not sure since I really didn’t know him…with 9 kids, there really wasn’t a lot of one on one time…and you just didn’t talk much back then….I only really remember a couple of interactions with him…once, when I was around 10, he took me to his work at Associated Truck Lines and showed me some trailers that had the tops peeled back from hitting the underside of an overpass…and one other time, I was scheduled to pitch for my little league team and he grabbed a glove and warmed me up before I left for the field…I really didn’t know it at the time but now I remember that I really tried to impress him by throwing as hard as I could…and I could throw back then…until I hurt my shoulder…and I still have that pain to this day. Haven’t heard from any of my four yet today…but, I never wanted for any of them to make a big deal of the day…it’s really just Sunday to me….

Well…running a little late today…almost forgot to go out and get the paper this morning…the days just run together and I forgot it was Sunday….the sore throat is gone today…okay, not all the way…but it is better than yesterday but I still feel the bug so maybe today will be a rest day…the wind is already blowing pretty hard so that will be a factor in deciding whether or not to go out on the bike….okay…my throat is not better…it is closed up some and I have just started to sweat again and all I’m doing is sitting here….but it smells so nice out there that I want to get on the bike…I do need to change the oil in the car this week and I got my check back from the state so I can afford it now…not much to do today….and that is true this time…just going to wing it and take it easy….more later….

Well…have been sitting here trying to figure out why I’ve felt so crappy all day today and about 10 minutes ago, I figured it out when my throat started to get sore…so, it’s not the cocktails…it’s a bug of some sort…I wonder if I got this one from T when we had lunch last week…if it is the same one, I can now understand why she was so exhausted….and I hope it doesn’t get too much worse…have had terrible headaches all day, too so I think I’ll take something for it here in a little while…and I think I’ll blame the bug for not doing a political one today…and the idiot trump is off on vacation, again, so there’s nothing to talk about there….
