July 23rd

Well….just lost the entire post that I was writing and I am a little irritated since I now have to try to reconstruct it….it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little money that I spent on groceries this morning but my head is still above water so that is okay…didn’t get much done yesterday but I didn’t have much to do so I guess that works out…did get out to have a couple with G and that was interesting…but, it broke up my no drinking week and I am not too happy about that….I am happy that the truck race on dirt from Eldora is on tonight…last year’s was a hoot to watch since a bunch of the drivers had never been on dirt before….and then later, Man U plays the LA Galaxy but it doesn’t start until 11 so I won’t see much of that…and they won’t bring the whole team anyway so it won’t be much of  a game…that’s about all I have to do today…I am going to meet up with T for a HH later and I do have errands to run so it is going to be a busy day for me….more later…

July 22nd

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I got some work done around here…and, found some new equipment if I have to replace the old stuff…slept crappy and part of it was worrying about T and her tests today….but, most of it was just the same old crap…I have to do a better job of watching what I eat since yesterday I was under again…but, I still don’t understand why I’m not 150 pounds with only eating 1400 cals and burning 900 on the bike every day….need to lose another 20 pounds but I’m not sure how to do it….not much to do today…might make a little cash and that would be cool but that is about it…need to get out on the bike before it gets too hot but that’s about all I have to do…was going to go to the beach but business calls so that’s out until next week now….oh, well…

July 21st

Well….it was an okay day yesterday but just a normal Sunday with a little cleaning and races in it….not going to talk about sleeping….didn’t eat enough, again, so that will have to be fixed today but that means that the legs will be dead for the bike ride…they were yesterday, too, so it looks like I may be taking a day off soon…maybe tomorrow, have been thinking about making a run out to the beach since it is going to be 90 or so tomorrow but T is going to be in the hospital for tests all day so I may want to be here for support…not much to do today…and that is true….not sure what to even think about doing….maybe I’ll figure something out later….

July 20th

Well…sitting here watching the F1 race and thought I’d get this one done so I can get out on the bike as soon as it is over….it was an okay day yesterday but didn’t do much…slept okay but up at 5:30 again and that is getting to be a pain….and it looks like there are many more races on today so it looks like another wasted day but that is okay…and the wind is not blowing at all so it will be a good ride…man, this one is disjointed…maybe I’ll just go back to the race and come back later…

July 19th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made some more cash so that was cool…lost at pool, though, so that wasn’t but still had fun….did get the chance to drive the car at night which is one of my favorite things, and with the top down it was just neat….didn’t sleep well…not to bed until almost 1 and then back up at 6:30 with tossing and turning all night…oh, well….needless to say, I am exhausted this morning but I will get out on the bike in a while…watching F1 qualifying right now and having a sorely needed cup of coffee….not much to do today…I do need to clean again and get laundry done but that is about it….and cooking…..more later…

Trail coolness….

Well…going to cheat a little today since I am 4 behind for the month but it is really cool so I thought I’d share….while riding today, the tiny bunnies were out in force with seeing 14 or 15 of them in the first half mile so I thought I’d count them for the entire ride…64 by the end but that is not the cool part…while I was on my first climb, a rabbit was just sitting on the trail not moving…even as I got closer, the bunny still just sat there until I was about 6 feet away…but then, the strangest thing happened…a female red-tailed hawk dove on the bunny but then, when it saw me coming, it pulled up into a steep turn and left the bunny sitting there…it didn’t even move until I got to it…one of the coolest things I have seen in quite a while and had me grinning the rest of the ride….

July 18th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get the car washed and waxed so that is something…didn’t do much else and I do feel kind of guilty about that…not too guilty, though…..slept okay or normal for me…I did waste some money and bought a subway sub for lunch yesterday…the first time for any fast food in over 18 months and that is something to feel guilty about…but, I had a little money and thought what the hell….not much to do today…have a bunch of errands to run after the bike ride but that is about it…pool, too…but that is a given…more later….

July 17th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much accomplished…stayed up late and got up early so I am a little worn out but I will get the workout in and ride the bike since that seems to be all that I do anymore….I may wash the car today, too since I have some cash and want to make sure I get it done while I have a few bucks….my back has been troubling me the past couple of weeks and it seems that the pain is just moving around from high to low when I get up in the morning…may have to take something for it today but don’t want to get in the habit of taking pain meds for every little thing…not much to do today,,,and that is true…so I guess I won’t do much….more later…

July 16th

Well…it was kind of a long day yesterday but I had a fun birthday…heard from all of the kids and had a couple with T and then out with G and N for quite a few so I feel like I should today…crappy…so, the coffee is needed and I do need to get out on the bike when it warms up…no workout today…just don’t feel like it so I’m going to indulge myself and not do it….slept okay, I think, but I do want to take a nap now..but, I won’t….I do have a bunch of stuff to get done and some errands to run…then, I’ll take it easy this aft….and come back here for two more today since I am getting behind again…more later…

July 15th

Well…another year has gone by…I’m a year older and a year more broke…but, I am still alive so I guess that’s something…and I’ve made enough cash this week to last through the end of the month so that is one bright spot…up too damn early this morning but that is also becoming the norm…oh, well…I could go on about getting older and all that crap but I just don’t feel like it…I do feel like having more coffee so I guess I’ll do that…not much to do today…going to make a little more cash this aft and then out to have a couple with G for my birthday but that is about it….I’m not going to think about work or being broke or anything else today…just going to work out and ride the bike then back here to splurge a little on a pizza for lunch….more later…
