Just gonna cheat…

Well…I know…it is cheating to just write another one of these to just get to my goal without having anything to say…but, it is not as easy as it looks to come up with two of these every day. And, I still feel like crap for some reason so that is also an excuse…there was some nonsense out of the repubs today about the one year anniversary of OBL being killed and Obama using it in a speech…okay…this is not what I wanted to do so I’m going to stop here…and Man U is behind but still playing so I think I’ll go do that instead…

These may just be filler….

Well…as you know, I’m running behind for the month and I’m not sure why….so, you know what that is going to mean, that I’m going to have to write a couple that are basically just filler or random thoughts…one thing that I find really interesting out on the trail is how strong the shoots of willow trees are…there are places along the trail where shoots have pushed up through three inches of asphalt like it’s not even there….it was a pretty nice ride but now my back is starting to hurt just adding to the pains that I have from fixing the brakes this morning…91 bucks just in parts but it was necessary to make the car safe again….I did bruise and cut my hand trying to get the rotor off and pulled something in my shoulder trying to get the bolts out of the caliper bracket…so, I’m going to hurt the rest of the day…and I will be back for one more to get to 60….

April 30th

Well…it was a long day yesterday and I feel a little under the weather today….and I lost at pool so that doesn’t help….I do need to do three of these today to get caught up but I have no idea what the topics will be….even for this one…I do know that Man U is playing this aft and I do need to get the brakes fixed on the car since I decided to replace the rotors, too, and spent 90 bucks for parts…but it is raining so that will have to wait…other than that, not much to do today…need to recover…so, that’s what I’m going to do right now…more ice water and couch….

April 29th

Well…it was another day yesterday and after it was done, there was not much to say for it….so I won’t…okay, just a little…I did get some cleaning done and my bathroom thanks me so that was something….it was kind of a bore, though, but today is shaping up to be better…if I can get back on the bike, that is….it has been a couple of days of no riding and I can feel it already…but, my legs do feel better so I guess that is okay….and it is pool day out with Tom this aft so that will be a welcome diversion….I do have to work on the car tomorrow…need another set of front brakes but that’s no big deal…I think it’s probably the 10th set since I’ve had it and I can change them out in less than an hour for 20 bucks or so….okay…I’m done for now…need to read the online papers and have another cup of coffee….

April 28th

Well….this one is going to be short since the papers and coffee are waiting…just had a toasted bagel with cream cheese and that is just right to get the day started….had a busy day yesterday with lots of running around…lunch with T was too much fun, as always, and then I went out to meet up with C for a couple…I am feeling significantly better today even with cocktails last night…but the coffee is getting cold and I need to read the papers…back later for more…

Okay, it’s been a day and I thought I’d come back for a few minutes…I did have weird dreams last night that included a hotel that was infested with mice and many other pests and a manager that didn’t want to deal with them…not much else came out of that one but I thought it was funny….I have gotten things done around here and even got out to run some errands but I am running out of steam so I think I’ll take the rest of the day off and just veg…I may do a political one later but that would mean reading the paper again and I’ve already stacked them….

April 27th

Well…it was a long day yesterday and the glimmers of feeling better have vanished this morning as I fall back into the no energy state that I’ve been in for the past week…..it didn’t help that there was no sleep last night but I’m sure that’s not all of it….I do have some things to do today and I’m not sure how that is going to go…lunch with T and then out to Cascade for a few minutes an then out with C for a couple…I’m already looking forward to having all of it done and getting back here this evening…more later…

April 26th

Well…this is starting to get annoying…still feel crappy today and there is no reason for it other than I must have a bug of some sort…I’m already exhausted and all I’ve done is get up….so, today is going to be another lay low day and all I’m going to do is get groceries and then take it easy…it was a spider alert night last night and it was kind of creepy to have one of them land on my face when I was sleeping…which woke me up and then I had a heck of a time getting back to sleep…so, there were no dreams to speak of…I do have a sore throat this morning so I am really hoping that this is a bug…and not something serious that will mean a trip to the doctor…can’t afford that…oh, well…I’m about done for now but will be back later for more…

April 25th

Well…it was a long day yesterday with going out to play pool with Tom in the aft then meeting up with G for a couple in the evening…and then I stayed up late to watch the Chelsea/Barcelona match but got up at the normal time so I am worn out today…and not feeling this right now so I am going to stop here now and go back to the ice water and the couch for a few minutes….back later for more…

Okay….back for a few minutes after taking a little nap to try to recharge some from yesterday and I do feel better…might have to make some coffee for the entire process to complete itself and that would be okay…I think today will be a recovery day since whatever has been taking all my energy is still working somewhat and I just don’t feel normal….so, I guess I’ll work out and get a bike ride in this morning and then just lay low for the rest of the day….I will be back for more since I am really behind and the end of the month is coming up fast…

April 24th

Well…it was a non descript day yesterday with not a lot to say about it…stayed in since G had to study for her exams this week and that was not a bad thing…I still feel a little crappy today and I know it’s a bug of some sort…..it may be bad allergies since I am itching like crazy all over like my skin is dry…I may try taking an allergy pill today to see if it will go away….I did get a bike ride in yesterday and that was a good thing but who knows about today…it is supposed to be windy and I really hate that…but I’m going to try…not much to do today…it is a pool day but that is about it…..I am going to go out for the papers again today since it is nice to start the day that way….I will try to come back for another…more later…

April 23rd

Well…it was a lost day yesterday since I was feeling so crappy…not sure what the heck it was but I think I still have it today…I’m still coughing and warm so there must be a reason…could be allergies but I haven’t been out of here in a couple of days so I’m not sure about that…I did sleep okay last night but again, no dreams to speak of…I have been really lazy about doing this and I think I’m about 5 behind for the month so I will be getting to it today and trying to get caught up…so, that means I have to go out and get the papers or I won’t have enough to talk about….didn’t even ride the bike yesterday with the winds almost 20…it just makes it so unpleasant that it isn’t fun…might have another day like that today but we’ll see…not much to do today….what happens will hinge on whether I feel better today or not….right now, it looks like I might feel better but I won’t know for a while…more later…
