Well…I guess there’s no excuse for not doing a political one today other than I just realized it right now at 5:17…so I’ll do this one for a warm up and then make the rounds of the news sites to see if I can find a topic…today started pretty early with getting on the bike for the first time at 7:30 and then struggling through the 30 miles…came ever so close to turning around on the second ride when my whole body went flat and it was so damn much work…but I got through it and checked the water temp while I was out at the beach and it was warm enough to swim so that changed my plans to a light lunch and then out to the beach…got a half hour in the water but took it really easy since the first dive in hurt my abs quite a bit and they are still sore right now…nothing big but still a little pain so I had to take the day off the exercises to not hurt them more…but I did have to clean up the rest of the yard so I could put the garden plants and the dying flowers from the back of the house out, too so now I have three bags out with the trash…it is still damn hot out here at 90 and I have the fan on high but that is making it tolerable in here and I can live with it…have had more than a gallon of water and three showers today after all the sweating and dirt from riding and the yard work…after all that, it’s time to take a short break and figure out the topic….more later….
