Well…with everything that has been going on in politics and with all of the riding I’ve been doing, I am worn out both mentally and physically and need a break….so, I don’t think I’m going to do a political one today…just too much to think about and I need to let my brain rest for a while…maybe later? Who knows? My body is also throwing out the warning signs that it needs a rest, too…It’s been almost a month since I took a day off and all of the studies I’ve been reading say you should take a rest day at least once a week…that’s never going to happen but it’s supposed to rain tomorrow for part of the day so I think it’s time to give myself a rest…I did do two rides today after thinking I would only do one but I could feel my legs  starting to feel the fatigue that usually says stop…and I have pain under both kneecaps and in my achilles which should never happen so I think I’ll listen to my body this time and give it a chance to repair tomorrow….it will be pretty strange to not have to rush out of here in the morning and get a ride in before the F1 race….I did try a new recipe for pickles today…made some dill pickles but put a jalpeno in it to make spicy dill pickles…and I can’t wait to taste them tomorrow…have to let them set to get the flavor to mesh with the peppercorns and garlic that I put in too…so, it looks like I’m taking the rest of the day off…pretty damn tired and just can’t get motivated to do anything….that can wait til tomorrow….
