This week just keeps getting worse…

Well…this crappy week just keeps getting worse…on top of all the other stuff that has happened…today the new tube in the back tire blew…and it was only a week old….blew the tire off the rim and damn near pitched me off…but that’s not the worst of it…it happened the farthest away that I can get on my ride…and that made for a 5 1/2 mile walk back here pushing the thing that left me with blisters on almost every toe and calves that are screaming at me…didn’t do my back any good, either…and I am now sitting here in pain and hoping that it rains for the next three days until I heal up….what a week…..

April 26th

Well….feeling like crap this morning and my head feels like it is filled with concrete…the pollen is just terrible and my car has turned yellow from it….didn’t get much done yesterday other than the workout and bike ride and today looks the same…..I have been getting resumes out lately but no bites yet….I think I’m going to work on it today….it has been quiet around here lately and I’m not sure I like it too much…..oh, well…..should wash the car today but it looks like storms are coming in a couple of hours so I guess I won’t…and, it’s already over 60 outside so I can go out in a t-shirt today….more later…..

April 25th

Well….slept so crappy last night that it feels like I didn’t….but, other than that, I feel pretty good…physically anyway….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but resumes but today will have to be different…need to clean again today but I’m not sure how much of that will happen….haven’t been eating enough and I can feel it…but, I just don’t care to eat…nothing appeals to me right now and it is really hard to force the food down….it looks like it will be warm enough to get out on the bike anytime I want today but I am not in any hurry since I am running early without sleeping….okay, I do need coffee and to look at some news…more later…..

Just not a good day…..

Well….it has just not been a good day today and that was and is reflected in these today….just don’t have anything to write about today…or anything that interests me to write about…actually, nothing interests me right now…it has been a depressing day and I just want it to be over….so, I may be back for another one today but maybe not….

Okay…just did see one cool thing…my son has one of those camera doorbells on his house and just captured a coyote walking across his front lawn….

April 24th

Well….feel a little crappy this morning and my neck is sore again so I’m in a pretty crappy mood…and the coffee hasn’t started to work yet so it’s a double whammy….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and today needs to be different…but, there is a race on today from Bristol so that will take up the afternoon…after I work out and get the bike ride in this morning….man, this is just not going well so I think I’ll come back later to continue….

April 23rd

Well…running on time today and have already read the paper…which is not hard with how crappy the GRP is these days….feel okay this morning and don’t hurt too much so that is cool….I did get the bathroom done yesterday and that was really needed….going to try to do the kitchen today but I need to cook first…going to make a pork loin in the pressure cooker today…almost forgot that the best pork loin I have ever made was in it so I am going to try it again…need to cook it longer this time so it is tender all the way through….had ice on the windshield this morning and I am really tired of it being too cold to ride when I get up in the morning….okay…need more coffee and to look at some news…more later….

April 22nd

Well…woke up today and am not really sore anywhere and that is weird….okay…nope, my neck hurts so I guess I was wrong….it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool so that was cool….and I had the top down out and back even though it was kind of cool…nice ride….didn’t get anything else done but today will be different…I am going to get the bathroom cleaned at least and maybe the living room, too….I am going to have to wait to get out on the bike today since it is still in the 30’s right now and I refuse to wear gloves near the end of April….I did get the new tube in the rear tire of the bike but it looks like I’ll need a new tire too since the cords are starting to go and it has a thump to it that is annoying….more later….

April 21st

Well…running a little early today and there is no reason for it other than I got up early….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and it looks like I won’t get much done today…I did get a bleach load in the washer already to try to get the whites white again…..my sheets were looking quite dingy…I did get the new tube in the back tire but it looks like I’ll need a new tire soon, too…the cords are starting to go and it is annoying to have it feel like it is out of balance….not much to do today…pool, probably…but that is about it……more later….

April 20th

Well…okay, there is something really wrong this morning…I feel pretty damn good and that never happens…don’t hurt anywhere and the cough is better…I wonder if I’m finally getting over the bug that I’ve had forever? Whatever it is, I hope it continues…it is so tiring to feel like crap for so long….had a pretty good day yesterday but I did have a flat on the bike for the first time in two years…I did get back here before it went flat so that was cool….and I have a new one to put in it for only 8 bucks and I’ll get to that in a minute…I did go out and have a couple with G last night and it went okay and then I was good when I got back here so maybe that has something to do with feeling good….it is raining right now so I will have to wait to get out on the bike today but that is okay, too….don’t have a lot to do today so waiting a while is no big deal and I want to have more coffee anyway…..more later….

April 19th

Well….running a little early today and that is starting to become normal…not sure I want it to but it is what it is….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but didn’t need to….and that is starting to get boring…I did get a nice bike ride in yesterday but not a long one with the wind blowing and today looks the same but I will need to get out early today before it gets worse…and it is already over 60 so I can go as soon as I get the workout done….my lungs seem to be better today but I’m still coughing a little…hope it’s done soon since it’s been 3 weeks and I’m tired of it….I am going to clean a little today…yeah, said that yesterday, too…but today will be different…maybe….more later…..
