Well…didn’t get up til after 7 this morning…but that was the second one…woke up around 6 from pain in my thumb…must have slept on it since it still hurts right now…even more than yesterday and that is disappointing…thought I was healing but now I’m not so sure…I did sleep okay last night and feel okay if a little worn out this morning…I think the 7 hours of go yesterday took a lot out of me…but I will get a reprieve today with rain in the forecast for the morning and lots of sports to watch….and the swelling is back in my hand so it will be hard to get my gloves on for the bike ride…it is nice to have clean windows to look out of for the first time here and I wonder why it took me 8 months to get it done? I guess I’m just not as young as I used to be and doing all this crap is wearing…and I haven’t even started on the interior of the house….a weird thing happened on the rides yesterday when I noticed that Muskegon lake’s water level dropped by about a foot between the rides leaving small beaches exposed all along the shore that are normally underwater and that is really strange…I wonder what could cause that? A low pressure system over Lake Michigan? I’ve seen that cause the lake to retreat 20-30 feet up in Petosky in front of a strong storm and that was pretty cool…can’t wait to get out and see if the water is back this morning….not much to do today….I’m pretty much resigned to a one ride day and that will be okay….still feeling pretty beat up and sports start at noon with Michigan playing NW and I am not going to feel guilty even if I don’t get on the bike today….I just hurt so much that it is going to be torture to get on the bike….more later….
