Well…finally, the biopsy is done and I’m home sitting on my couch with a big glass of ice water watching some Indy practice…this one hurt a lot worse than the first one and I was gritting my teeth all the way through it…and there is residual pain that I didn’t have the first time…I will be off the bike for a week the way it feels right now…should have the results next week and I can’t wait…
May 22nd
Well…damn, that was probably the worst sleep I’ve had in a year…went to be at 11 but just laid there tossing and turning until I got out of bed at a little after two…then back in bed for more tossing and turning until almost 4:30 and then up at 6:13…I am worn out and there will be a nap after the biopsy this afternoon…damn, the heat is still running on May 22nd and it is only 45 out there and I am so tired of it…froze my butt off in bed last night and woke up shivering and I still feel cold…but I need to get on the bike by 8 to get a ride in before I mow the lawn…and I may try to do a second ride if I can get the lawn done by 10:30….I’ll be off the bike the rest of the week with the pain…made the mistake of getting on it three days after the last one and that really hurt…didn’t get much done yesterday but I’ll be racing this morning to have everything done before I jump in the shower and make lunch around noon to be at the appointment at 1…at least there is no wind out there today so the rides will be okay…I think I’m going to buy a new tank for the grill tomorrow and get it filled so I can start using it…a grilled burger would taste good or some pork chops later in the week…not much to do today…not going to be a fun day today and even with being good last night I feel worn out already…more coffee and more later….
Did you really need any more evidence?
Well…no matter how many times the idiot trump screams “no collusion” about putin’s efforts to get him elected, there is overwhelming evidence that he and his campaign worked with Russia to steal the 2016 election…and that Russian help continues to this day with the release of new “sanctions” being put on some Americans by Russia…and the list reads like a trump enemies list…I mean Letitia James who is prosecuting trump in NYC? Or Brad Raffensberger who wouldn’t go along with idiot boys scheme to “find” votes in Georgia…and the list goes on and on…man, Russia used to be subtle with it’s interference but now they don’t care who sees it or how ham handidly they do this stuff…if you needed any more evidence…and I don’t think you do, that trump is still in the bag for Putin, this is it…geez…
Crap, this is harder than it looks..
Well…have been looking for a topic since I got off the bike at 11 and I am not having any luck…this is harder than it looks…after doing almost 11,000 of these, coming up with topics has gotten pretty hard lately…and I don’t want to talk about the idiot trump anymore until they lock him up for the rest of his life…but, I’m going to keep trying this afternoon so I could surprise you with something new…stay tuned…
May 21st
Well…man, up at 6:23 this morning and have 50 minutes to get on the bike to get two rides in today…but it’s still too cold to go out so I guess I’ll have to wait…and you know I’m not good at that…didn’t get a lot done yesterday and today will be the same with final qualifying for Indy this afternoon….and there is a nascar race on later…I am getting a little anxious about the biopsy tomorrow and knowing this week if I’m dying or not….just getting so damn tired of this crap and treatment hasn’t even started yet…had two meals yesterday and I am feeling so guilty of eating so much so I may just skip eating today…I don’t know why I’m even taking care of myself at all if the biopsy results are bad…some of the seeds in the garden annex have come up so it will be interesting to see what they are and if I actually get any veggies from them…the first flowers are getting ready to bloom out back and I can’t wait to see them….still don’t understand why the tomatoes are dying in the garden and I may not get anything from them this year…I don’t need the stress of looking at them gradually turning white….not much to do today….need to get on the bike soon but it’s only 49 and that’s too darn cold…and I’ve only had one cup of coffee and need a heck of a lot more than that….more later…
China is killing countries…
Well…read an interesting article the other day about how China is killing many poor countries economies by lending them money for infrastructure projects that they know countries like India, Sri Lanka, and many African countries can’t afford to pay back….some of this debt service is taking up to 80% of tax revenue and that is not sustainable for any country. Because China is so secretive about their foreign aid, the IMF who would would normally step in to help restructure the loans so they don’t default can’t since the loans are structured so China gets the money first and the countries take a back seat…some of the African countries have run out of money to pay for food or fuel and people are starving to death…but that doesn’t matter to China, it is all part of their project to destabilize countries across to world to increase their influence…but some economists think that if all of the countries default and stop paying their loans, it is going to crash China’s economy, too…so who do we root for here? Anything that would put some brakes on China would be a good thing…geez…
May 20th
Well…damn, I forgot to set up the coffee maker yesterday so now I’m waiting for coffee and I don’t like it one bit…and it looks like another wait day to get on the bike since it’s only 49 out there and I need it to be 52 or more…woke up at 4 today but didn’t give up and stayed in bed til a little after 6…man, I’m worn out today with only one meal for two days in a row and my damn gout is flaring up for some reason…thought I’d had enough water with drinking all day but I have to do better after the coffee that is brewing….it’s a big race day today with Indy qualifying and the truck race from North Wilkes so I need to get the rides in as soon as the weather allows…didn’t get much done yesterday but I do need to feed the garden today and try to keep it alive…the garden annex at the rear corner of the house has started to sprout and I have cukes, parsley, and lettuce up so far…not sure if the chives and beans will sprout but I’ll take whatever I can get with the garden trouble this year….not much to do today…just need to get the rides in and the garden work but I think it will be an easy day…more later…
I hate late starts…
Well…I really hate getting late starts to my day…the rain came in overnight and continued this morning so I couldn’t get out on the bike until 11:30 and I didn’t get done til after two and that is just too late…and then I had to hose the bike off since it was covered in grit and sand and the shifters start to hang up with all of that stuff in them…and that is just too darn annoying…and I’m having problems getting the seat set right and I’m not sure if it’s the foam getting old or not…it’s the seat from the old black bike since the new one started to come apart at the seams and I haven’t repaired it yet…tomorrow is going to be strange with runners on the trail out by the beach for the “adventure” run that is set up in the park and on the beach and I may have to just skip that part or wait til after noon to go out and that isn’t going to happen…wow, watching Indy practice and these guys are going into the turns at over 240 miles an hour…and averaging 233…that is ridiculous fast…okay, going out to adjust the bike…
Tick tock, trump…Fani’s coming…
Well…Thursday, Fani Willis sent a letter to the chief judge of Fulton county saying that she is going to have most of her staff work remotely the first three weeks of August and asked him to not schedule any trials or in person hearing during most of that time….it looks like that will be when the grand jury will hand down indictments of everyone involved in trying to overturn and steal the election…and there are a lot of people involved…speculation is that it will be trump, rudy, possibly lindsey graham, and mark meadows and I think all of the rest of them who were involved in the fake elector scheme…which is a LOT of people….and I am happy that these assholes will finally get what’s coming to them for trying to kill this country…and there is not a damn thing idiot boy can do about it…oh, and another funny thing is that the lawyer representing idiot boy in the stolen documents case just quit…he could probably see that it’s a big ole loser and he doesn’t want to have his reputation ruined like everyone who works for the idiot…tick tock, trump…fani’s coming….geez…
May 19th
Well…up at 6:07 this morning and I think I slept okay but don’t remember any dreams so that means it was a little light…going to have to sit here for a while today with the rain that is coming in but I may go down and ride indoors for the first one and then go out later for an outdoor one…but I just poured the first cup of coffee and that is going to have to work before I do anything…didn’t do a lot yesterday but the rides and I’m going to take a bit easy today…my left leg was howling in pain last night with that Achilles problem I’ve been having along with some calf cramps so I laid the heating pad out and stretched my leg out over it…I think it may have helped some but the stiffness is still there and I wonder if it just needs some rest…I hope it rains a lot since my lawn is drying out and will be going dormant without it….not going to water it at all this year and, with the dry conditions for the next week, it is going to be tough on it…the little weather widget on my bottom banner says heavy rain soon so I’ll keep my fingers crossed…not much to do today…I do need to figure out what to cook for lunch today and I may make the pizza I have in the freezer but I have some sausage thawed that should be used….maybe on the pizza…we’ll see…more later…
