Well…running about on time this morning with getting up  a little after 6:30 and I don’t feel too bad today…my thumb still looks like hell but it doesn’t hurt so I guess that’s something…it looks like we had our first frost out here and I am happy that I have a garage to put my car in so I don’t have to scrape the windshield…and the cold should start the leaves falling that I have been waiting on…there still isn’t much color out here and I can’t wait to see what it looks like on the north shore of Muskegon lake when they do change…. will probably take a color tour in the car when that happens…might take a drive up to Whitehall when that happens just to see it…I do have the grocery run to do today and I am glad I got the lawn done yesterday so I can get on the bike after I get back here…going to try to get two rides in again today even though it took a lot out of me yesterday…okay, I was wrong…my thumb just started to hurt like crazy again and I think it’s part of the healing process…at least I hope it is and not some permanent damage that I am going to have to deal with forever…still can’t move it much but at least I can shift the bike again….not much to do today…just the grocery run, bike rides, and cleaning some…need to plan some meals since the leftovers are almost gone and I am getting bored with breakfast for lunch…maybe some pasta? More later….
