July 17th

Well…didn’t get out of bed until a little after six this morning so I guess that is a win but I don’t feel like it….still pretty darn sore and I’m confused about that…didn’t do anything that would cause it but I am still moving carefully to keep from aggravating it….hmmmm….think I slept okay last night but I sure don’t feel like it…I think I need to take a day off the bike soon but I need an excuse and today looks like it’s not going to give one to me with the rain sliding by to the south…..I don’t know when I last had a day off but I think it was back in April and that is still not the longest period…a few years back I did 186 days in a row on the bike but that was when I was only doing about 15 miles a day and not the 30 I’m doing now…and I still wonder if I’m doing permanent damage to my body by riding so much….wouldn’t that be ironic when I’m on the bike to stay healthy? I did get a little done yesterday with doing the weed walk in the afternoon but that’s all I did after the rides…feeling a little like a slug with not working hard enough to feel any sense of accomplishment….and that is leading to a little bit of depression today…can’t I just sit on the couch and relax? Nope….going to get on the bike here in a few and start torturing myself again…I am going to run out to my brother’s house in the afternoon to pick up some things that I can use and that I think you can too, Tom….and it is so funny that it is only about 12 miles from here and only takes about 20 minutes to get there instead of the hour it took to come out here from GR…and I haven’t been out there for almost 20 years…nope it’s more than 20 years….and that’s a little weird…..but normal for our family….and I have gps to get me there with the new phone and unlimited data….but right now I need more coffee and then on the bike….more later…
