No politcal one today…
Well…have been thinking about something political to write about today and have come up empty so I think I’ll just do an update and call it good…I did take a bike ride with my brother today and it was fun…but the damn squeak is back an more annoying than ever…so, I went out and got some wheel bearing grease and took the bike back apart to grease everything…again…and it sounds like it is fixed again but I am going to hold my breath again…after all, I did get a few quiet days out of the lithium stuff… not sure what I can do if it does it again….other than be annoyed…and, I made a little money this aft so that was cool, too…can buy groceries again this week! I am still pretty sore from hitting that bucket of balls Friday and my damn golf bag broke so I need to go find some zip ties to see if I can fix it….the duct tape didn’t work…oh, well…it looks like an easy fix and I will get on that tomorrow….
June 9th
Well…running a little late today but that is normal for Sunday…had an okay day yesterday and did get dome cleaning done so I feel okay about that…slept okay but no dreams again…crap….I am really sore this morning from hitting the golf balls Friday but that should go away after the ibuprofen and the bike ride…my brother is coming over to ride in a few minutes so this one is going to be short since I have to work on the bike before we go…the damn squeak is coming back again and I’m not sure where to look next…more later…
June 8th
Well….it was a long day yesterday and I am running late this morning as always for a Saturday….I did win at pool for the first time in a month so that was cool but then the night devolved into the bore that it normally is….I did get out to hit some golf balls yesterday but that means I am sore today…but not as sore as I expected so that is a plus…still going to need the ibuprofen today, though, hit okay until the end where I was hopping the driver and that is a little concerning…I did hit the 9 iron pretty well..dropped one right on the flag and that was pretty cool…the bike is still quiet and I may have found the squeak finally…and I am up over 600 miles since April which is really under where I was last year but I am resolved to not be so anal about it this year and just have fun….not much to do today…getting on the bike right now and then going to clean the living room and get rid of the spiders…more later…
June 7th
Well…it was just another day yesterday and I really didn’t get much done…did go out and have a couple with G and that was fun but that was about it…slept okay, I think, but I always feel the same when I get up so who knows? I am getting tired of it being so cold that I can’t put the windows and top down in the car….where the heck is our spring or summer? I am planning on going out to hit a bucket of balls this morning to see if the back will hold up to playing 9 next week…to do that, though, I have to buy some tees and that means a run over to Meijers in a minute…more later…
June 6th
Well…running late today and it on purpose, really…catching up on the last two episodes of “Burn Notice” from last season to get ready for tonight’s last season premiere…it was an okay day yesterday but didn’t do much but laundry and a little cleaning…just can’t get motivated to do much else right now…might even skip working out this morning since the catching up won’t be done until 11….but, it is raining so I may not have to ride the bike today….might be going out to see G for a couple but I do have to get back here by 9 tonight but that looks like my only thing to do today…okay…need to get back to the show…more later…
Oh, I almost forgot…today is the anniversary of D-day in 1944…thank a vet if there are any left..
June 5th
Well…not running late today…have been up since 6 or so and it was a night of no sleep again but who really cares anymore? It was an okay day yesterday and I had a little money come in so that was cool…and I got to drive the car around a little finally which was fun…did have a setback with my face swelling with it being worse this morning that it was last night and I am getting really tired of it…look really old and shedding skin like a snake is just not a good look….I am going to make the grocery run today to get supplies in before I run out of cash so there will be food today….not much to do..other than that…after getting some stuff done around here, I am going do the kitchen today…kind of wish it would rain so I could take the day off riding to get a head start….more later…
June 4th
Well…it was another day yesterday…and I woke up to my right eye being closed again…this is getting to be a pain, after all, it’s been since last Thursday that I got sunburned and you’d think it would have healed by now…slept okay even with it being a no cocktail night so maybe I’ll get a few things done today…the kitchen does need a complete teardown but there are other things to do before that….I do look like a peeling snake today with losing all of the burned skin…it would be nice if it would get warm enough to go to the beach one of these days…what the heck is s Miata for? Might have to take a road trip one of these days..it can’t be good for the car to only drive it 300 yards a day….but, it does save me money on gas…more later…
June 3rd
Well…this damn software did it again…my June 3rd post disappeared…no wonder I’m behind…so, I’ll try to re-create it…slept okay last night but the eyes were swelled shut when I got up and I have been massaging them to be able to see ever since…I did get the squeak out of the bike for at least one day…had to tear the front fork off and grease the bearings with some lithium grease…but I made the mistake of lubing up a bunch of other stuff so I really won’t be sure where the squeak was…just glad it’s gone for now…I think I’m just going to bite the bullet and replace the clutch master cylinder this week…it has just been acting weird and I don’t want the damn thing to fail on me somewhere on the road…okay…that’s about all I remember so I’ll stop here…
June 2nd
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I had a little fun with going out and having a couple with K and V…slept okay and the swelling in my face seems to be a little better but it is still there…but there was no ooze out of the skin like there was yesterday so I take that as a good sign…..and my feet are much better…I won’t let sunburn like that happen again you can be sure….took the whole front of the bike apart and greased it yesterday but is still didn’t get rid of the squeak…I may have to take it over to the car wash and clean it so I can start from scratch…going to take a ride in a few to make sure where it is coming from…but that didn’t help yesterday….not much to do today….not even any cooking so it will be a lazy day…going to clean a little and then just read some…and come back for one more…
