Well…just took the bandage off my thumb and it looks really bad…and it is still quite swollen and stiff…not sure if it will keep me off the bike today…will probably try it in a while…I hurt everywhere from the crash and probably should just take a day off of everything to heal up but you know me…just can’t do that and will give it a try…I am going to take some ibuprofen before I get on the bike to see if that will help…and will probably continue that all day today….I did sleep okay last night and didn’t get up til around 7 so that is why I’m running late this morning…forgot that I have a bandage on my knee, too….need to remove that and take a look at how that damage is healing here in a bit….I did find out one thing about this house putting up the shades yesterday…all of the trim is oak and I wonder why anyone would paint fine grained oak? Now that complicates the interior rehab for me…do I strip and finish it or do I just sand and repaint? If I strip it, that won’t go with the grey that I planned to paint the interior so I’ll have to think about it…I already have too much work to do on the inside and don’t need more work…I may do a test strip to see what it looks like but it would be cool to have oak trim…I wonder what color of paint would go with that color trim? Hmmmm…not much to do today…after I try to get on the bike, I may mow the lawn today and see if the fix on the mower works…will probably have to rework it but I need it to last until winter….and I need to trim branches some time this week but my thumb is not going to allow me to do much….damn….more later….
