Work snuck up on me today…

Well…how I felt when I got up this morning, I wasn’t really planning on doing much other than trying to get a bike ride in…but I still had the annoying creaking wheel on the back of the bike and the wind was blowing about 25 so, when I got down to the end of Heritage Landing I gave up and turned around…but then looked at my lawn and how shaggy it was getting so I decided it would be a good time to mow it since I couldn’t ride…after mowing I decided to get off my butt and work on the new rear wheel for the bike…still hadn’t found what was causing the flats even with using the tube for a measure to try to see where the flaw in the wheel could be…but the holes in tubes moved around and were never in the same place twice so that means there must have been something moving around, too….I did find a small, small rock when I cleaned it but that could have come from me taking it apart last time…so, I cleaned it again and ran my fingers all over it and it was perfectly smooth…then I cleaned the inside of the tire and the tube protector and put it back together with my last spare tube, changed out the sprockets and put it back on the bike…was only going to take a short ride to put a couple of checks in the mail at the post office but it the bike was riding so nice that I decided to do a full 15 and made it all the way out to the beach and back with no flat….but, I made it 5 days between the past flats so I guess it really doesn’t mean anything…after I got back here, there was soccer on so I watched the first half, then gave myself a haircut since I was looking shaggy, too, watched the rest of the match and then cleaned up the bike room…I have a bike room! Put the trash out and then here to do this one…wasn’t planning on working too much today but I guess it snuck up on me….I do feel better that I accomplished something today and that gives me a clear day to get started on projects tomorrow…oh, joy…
