well…after that last post, I really thought I was done for the day but knew I needed to clean the couch…actually needed to do that a couple of weeks ago so today I got the vacuum out and cleaned the whole thing and rotated the cushions…I always feel good when I do that sine this is an expensive couch that my daughter bought me and it will probably be the last one for me so I need to take care of it…

Done for the day…
Well…it’s been a busy morning with doing the two bike rides, making lunch, and then doing the dishes…but I’m done for the day now except for tearing the couch apart and rotating the cushions to make sure they wear evenly….not having a lot of luck getting the seeds to sprout and I think it may be how cold it is down there…I do have broccoli, dill, lettuce, and some sunflowers but non of the tomatoes or beans have sprouted so I may have to get new seeds this week….menards have them on sale again for 10 cents a pack so I’ll make a run over there some time this week…I am going to try to find a political topic for later this afternoon but I need a few minutes of down time first…more later…
March 25th
Well…running about on time today with waking up at 5:35 but staying in bed til around 6:30…slept okay last night and I’m just a little sore from the 31 miles yesterday and I’m not sure how many I’m going to do today…don’t need to think about that right now since MotoGP is on and it’s the first race of the year…something to have running in the background….it’s raining hard enough for me to hear it today and it is just warm enough that it is rain and not snow….and it looks like it will be raining until noon or so….just want the damn weather to warm up and have a spring….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I do need to clean a bit today but I’m not motivated to do anything right now….man, it’s pouring out there…it may still turn into snow since it’s only 32 degrees….oh, well…so it may be a hibernation day for me today…I’ve done two 31 mile days this week so can I take today off? I guess we’ll see….more coffee is necessary….I’m glad I put the heating pad on my back after the outdoor ride yesterday since it is twinging right now and it probably would have seized last night….not much to do today….it’s 7:15 and I think I can take an hour or so before I decide what to do….need to figure out meals for this weekend but nothing appeals to me right now…maybe some toast for breakfast….more later…
Another 31 mile day…
Well…I decided to work my butt off today, so after I did the indoor rides and had lunch, I suited up and got on the outdoor bike for another 15 miles for a 31 mile day today…sitting here with the heating pad on my back since it twinged a bit when I sat down on the couch…I probably should put it away when it’s not in use but it’s just so damn convenient to leave it on the back of the couch…didn’t get anything else done today so I guess I better get after some cleaning tomorrow…it looks like the winter storm we were supposed to get has turned into a mix of rain and snow of around an inch so I probably won’t have to shovel Sunday…I am so done with the cold…oh, they have the trail that goes across the point blocked off for the next year so they can build their “affordable” condos that range from 500K to 2 million dollars…and they detoured it over some of the worst roads in Muskegon but I survived it and the brutal wind coming back…but I am going to be sore tomorrow….
Had a thought…
Well…I had a thought when I was out on the bike today…what if the prosecutors in all of the idiot trump’s cases are purposely delaying them to make him sit and stew for a while….idiot boy seems to be breaking down if you see his all caps screaming and threatening of Alvin Bragg in NY…he even posted a picture of himself holding a bat with Bragg’s photo next to it like he was threatening to beat him with it….he is having another one of his racist nazi “rallies” in Texas sat where he’ll do some more threatening of violence and murder if anyone arrests him…and go on and on about he is the most persecuted person in the history of the world…wa, wa, wa….it would be nice if today the cops showed up at his tacky club in Florida and arrested him say at like 3 am and not let him spend 3 hours to fix that fur he wears on his head….that would be funny…arrest him already…geez…
March 24th
Well…damn, another winter storm is coming for tomorrow night and I am so damn tired of the cold and snow…I mean no temps over 50 at all in March? Oh, well…slept okay last night but was up at three and then out of bed around 6:30 but I feel kind of worn out today…I did get my new earbuds yesterday and they synched up with my tablet pretty easily so I’m going to use them for the indoor ride this morning…but, I’m going to try to get an outdoor ride in today as soon as it gets warm enough….and that should be after lunch…didn’t get a lot done yesterday…no, that’s not true…I got enough done so it didn’t trigger the guilts and I need to do that again today but I’m not sure if that will be cleaning or what but I do need to do something…have to figure out meals for a few days and I don’t have a clue what they will be…I do have pork steaks for one but I’m not sure what the second meal will be…I did discover what looks like a good show last night on netflix called “The Night Agent” and that will give me something to watch for the next 8 days….not much to do today…just going to ease into it and read some news before I get on the bike
Everything done by 1…
Well…it was another busy morning today with being busy the whole time and not getting done until around 1…started it out by hand washing the car at the car wash and then running over to Meijers to get some stuff I forgot Wed…back here to do two rides and then make lunch and clean up afterwards…took a little bit of time off before I made a light dinner of pasta and garlic bread…it was supposed to rain all day today but the sun is shining right now…thought about going for an outdoor ride but it’s only 41 out there and I just don’t want to be cold….maybe tomorrow….there is finally too much stuff to watch on tv tonight with having 3 shows on netflix and a new one that came out today that looks good that I’m going to start the night with that at 7 and then get into “Picard” and “The Mandolorian”…still have”Ted Lasso” in the queue but that will probably be tomorrow…I’m waiting for my new bluetooth earbuds to come so I can use them on the bike tomorrow…not sure what I’m expecting at 20 bucks but they got good reviews for the sound so I’ll keep my fingers crossed….
Obstruction of justice in plain sight…
Well…since the idiot trump announced last week that he was going to be arrested Tuesday of this week, his fellow traitors in the house have sprung into action to try to obstruct the investigation into election fraud in NYC…and this whole thing is being run by jim jordan….you remember him, right? The guy who looked other way while a doctor at Ohio state molested a bunch of athletes while jordan was a wrestling coach there? Yep, that guy…sent a letter to Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan DA who is investigating trump for paying Stormy Daniels to stay quiet before the 2016 election, ordering him to turn over all of the evidence they have against idiot boy…and just today Bragg’s office basically sent a letter telling him to go to hell since they have no jurisdiction to interfere in a state prosecution, and gave specific reasons they are not going to comply citing court decisions and the right of the state of NY to run their state the way the constitution allows them to….so no, little jimmie…you are not going to be able to use your house powers to protect idiot boy…he is still going to be indicted…and as I talked about earlier this week, I didn’t think it would be this week anyway…more likely the week after next since the grand jury in NY is still meeting…at least today…geez…
March 23rd
Well…running a bit late this morning with not getting out of bed til 7 or so and only woke up once at around 3 so that is an improvement from yesterday….and I’m less sore today so I’ll take it….got some work done yesterday and I’m going to start the day with more as soon as it gets light…going to go out to wash the car here in a minute and at least it’s not freezing so the car won’t ice up…the radar looks like it’s raining out there and that’s okay…will help get the salt off it…my new wireless earbuds are supposed to come today and I can’t wait to try them with my tablet….they probably won’t be delivered in time to use them on the bike today but that will give me something to look forward to tomorrow…it’s kind of funny that just getting on the outdoor bike a couple of days ago has my back halfway to a spasm and I may have to heat it again today…not bad enough to take anything for it but I can see it coming…this weather is depressing the heck out of me…I need spring to come…and soon…not much to do today…just going to wash the car and then come back here to ride the bike…will probably do some cleaning since the dust is coating the living room…and that is with no work going on…old houses are dusty…more later…
Got stuff done today…
Well…even with not getting much sleep last night, I got a bunch of stuff done today and I think it was good that I had things to distract me or I probably would have ended up taking a nap…after I got the errands run, including picking up 100 pounds of composted manure at Menards that I am going to cut into the garden next week, I hit Aldis and Meijers where I picked up some pork loin steaks for 1.39 a pound so I got two packages of those…after I got back here, I did the two rides back to back and that made the second one a lot of work…I’m still sore from riding outdoors the other day and it really wrenched on my right thumb when I used the shifter…oh, well…after I took a little time of to have lunch, I got after the dust and cobwebs in my bedroom and the flared my allergies even more but I hope they will calm down after I run the air purifier tonight…so it was a productive day today and I think I’ve earned some veg time tonight…
