Well…up at 4:54 this morning but I slept okay so I’ll take that tradeoff….just made some coffee in the french press from the whole beans I bought and it’s a nice luxury to have to start my day…man, I am so happy that I have the doctor appointments done for three weeks and can just hang out for a while here and enjoy my house and my life…it is getting short and I can see the end coming but I’m not going to think about that right now…going to grill some burgers for the second meal today and that will last me into the weekend to go with the BAH I’m making tomorrow…I really do need to get the empty boxes taken care of from the 150 bucks of amazon orders I’ve gotten in the past two weeks…damn, sneezing like crazy this morning and I need to take some allergy meds soon…along with the BP meds…and that is going to be my life from now on….I do need to clean at some point but that will wait til I get the rides in…have been thinking about taking some time off but I’ve gained 10 pounds in the past month and I’m not sure how that happened…I sure don’t eat much so I need to think about that…not much to do today…I started the 1,000 page “Lord of the Rings” trilogy last night and that is going to be a slog and will probably take all winter to get through…it looks like it is going to warm up the next few days an I am going to try to get outdoors on the bike to try my new gloves…it might get to 48 and that is plenty warm enough if the ice melts…more later….
