Feel pretty crappy…

Well….another wasted day feeling like crap….have no energy and I am coughing like crazy…and I don’t think it’s done getting worse yet, either….not a lot of pain right now but I do have an infection in my lower right eyelid….right where I have a scar from the last one I had some 30 years ago…needless to say…just a crappy day….

January 2nd

Well…feeling pretty crappy today and my lungs are filled with stuff so I know it’s a bug….just can’t get warm and that started after I got off the bike yesterday…so, I didn’t get much done yesterday and didn’t eat much since nothing sounds good to me right now….the day was really bad for Michigan teams with both the Wings and Lions losing but I didn’t make it to the end of the Lions game…will have to look to see how back it was for the Lions…I’m waiting for the soreness from the bike ride to hit and it may be quite bad since I was sore before the ride….oh, well….today is going to be an all sports day with soccer and then football on all day and I think that will be my only accomplishment feeling the way I do…more later…

Inching up on 30,000 miles….

Well…sitting here waiting for the Wings game to start and thought I’d get an update done on the bike since I reset the odometer today…as I always do on January 1st. I did almost make it to the 3K goal for last year…falling only 30 miles short but I still feel good about it since I didn’t do any double rides last year…I normally do 20 or 30 of them but just didn’t have the motivation…with that 2,970 miles, I only have 1,030 more to do to have 30,000 miles on this bike…and the bike shows it with just about everything worn out…and I got a start on the 1,030 today with a good 12 mile run since the ice is almost gone from the trail and should be for the next two days…then it get down into the teens for highs and I won’t be able to ride again until the weekend…I just can’t believe how quickly my fitness goes away when I don’t ride….it was brutal on the bike today with everything hurting and my lungs on fire after only about a mile….tomorrow should be better….

January 1st

Well…another year starts and I can say I’m not too enthused about it….but, what can you do?  I did get some stuff done yesterday and that was a good thing…it is nice to have a clean bathroom and today is kitchen duty…don’t have to cook but I do have to clean…the floor is is need of some attention and the sink is getting pretty bad so that will be done today….it may even be warm enough to get out on the bike today and that would be a welcome change….not too sore this morning and that is a good thing…my back seems to be better and I am still not sure how I hurt it….I did drag the old coffee maker out and it is nice to have coffee that doesn’t taste like an electrical fire….need to return the new one tomorrow but I don’t think I’ll get another one since the old one still works…I’ll wait until I can afford a nice one….more later…
