April 3rd

Well…running a little early today and I am getting tired of getting up so damn early….one of these days I’m really going to sleep in at least until 7….or even 8…that would be nice…slept okay last night and I don’t feel that badly today other than I’m sore almost everywhere…probably from the long bike ride yesterday….not sure if I’m going to go out today with the temps dropping all day and that will put me into full thermasuit if I go….or I can just wait until it gets warm enough in about a week or so….not sure if I can do that…didn’t get much done yesterday but, if I don’t ride today, I’ll have to do something so I don’t feel guilty….I did get the shower cleaned yesterday so the rest of the bathroom shouldn’t take long….more later….

April 2nd

Well…up early again today and I’m sure I don’t like it….it just gets me started too soon and then I have to try to fill time until the temp comes up enough to ride the bike…I probably should just write this week off with it going to be so cold all week and just hunker down and survive it….slept okay last night but still feel a little off today but I’m not sure if it’s the bug or not…will probably have to wait a while to see how bad it’s going to be…didn’t get much done yesterday but a little cleaning and I’m not planning on doing much today…have an errand to run and Michigan plays later but I wonder why they have to start the game so late….probably won’t get through it but I think I’ll try…I’m hoping my back will reset itself sometime today…it has been pretty painful the past couple of days and that is annoying…more later…..

Think I’ve figured it out….

Well….as you can see from the last part of the last one, I’m trying to figure out why my brain is not working as well as it should be and I think I’ve figured it out….not, it’s not that I’m getting old…although I am…in the past hour I’ve started to feel really warm and have also started coughing so I think it’s a bug….have been really lucky this year so far with not being sick hardly at all and certainly not having the flu…but, I just read somewhere yesterday that there is another flu resurgence that is happening now here in Michigan….sure hopeĀ  that is not what this is….but, I do feel kinda crappy so I guess we’ll see where this goes….

April 1st

Well…almost forgot to come here and do this one today….felt that I was missing something and just figured it out…slept okay last night but don’t feel all that hot today so maybe I’ll take the day off and just veg it out….not even going to get on the bike today since the high is going to be 34 and I am not going to get back into full thermasuit again…I did get some things done around here yesterday and I may continue that today if I feel like it….don’t need to cook anything so it looks like an easy one for the first day of the month…Michigan made it into the championship game tomorrow night so I’ll have to get a nap in the aft to make it though since the game doesn’t start until after 9….not much to do today…waiting for soccer to start at 8:30 and still waiting for the coffee to work so I think I’ll get another cup and read some news….more later…

March 31st

Well…running late this morning…have been up for an hour or so and I just can’t get going…probably should have started drinking coffee earlier but the couch was just too comfortable…slept okay last night but woke up with a pain in my right shoulder so I guess I slept on itĀ  a little too much….but, it’s not too bad so I can live with it…but, no dreams after two days in a row of having them and that is disappointing…oh, well….I did cook a big ham yesterday and that was pretty good and will mean I don’t have to cook for a few days…forgot to get canned potatoes for my ham and potato dish so I’ll have to use some of the Idaho potatoes I got Thursday…they are so huge that I only used three of them to fill my largest pan….not much to do today…may have to skip the bike ride with the wind later…it’s supposed to gust to 50 or so and that is way too strong to get out on the bike…more later…

March 30th

Well…running late today and it’s because I slept in until 7:20…yeah, I know, I bitched about never being able to sleep in but does 7:20 count as sleeping in? Not sure, but it is weird to have it light when I got out of bed….had an okay day yesterday and got a bike ride in but it’s almost April and I’m going to be back in thermasuit for the next week and that is a little depressing…I am itching for a 60 degree day that I can go out in a t-shirt and shorts…..didn’t get a lot done yesterday and the only thing I plan on doing today is cooking a big ham that I got cheap yesterday….I was going to clean but I guess I’ve lost most of my motivation over the past week….I do need to go out this morning and get my Mega tickets since it is over 500 mil for tonight…I need the idea of the hope of getting rich for at least a night….more later….

March 29th

Well….on time today with the grocery run and getting up on time so I guess that is something…feel pretty good this morning and I’m not sure why…l was good last night so maybe that’s part of it, and I slept okay last night and had dreams for the second night in a row…I’m excited about that since it has been months since I had a repeat night…and this one had David Bowie in it along with typewriters and cop cars…yep, pretty weird but fun…I did get out for a good bike ride yesterday and I think that had something to do with remembering my gloves….the temp was borderline but I was still able to get out in shorts and I am working up to a full blast ride in the near future….but, the weather is going to crap by Sunday and I may have a few days next week that I won’t go since I don’t want to wear a stocking hat again….not much to do today…I am going to clean some and use up all the leftovers before I make the ham I got this morning…a 9 pounder for $8.67 is not a bad deal…more later….

A little fun….

Well…okay, I know…it’s been way too heavy around here lately and I really don’t want to be known as that person….after all, I have been really laid back for the past 6 months and things have been okay so let’s try to have a little fun with this one….have been trying to figure out when spring is going to come this year….it was supposed to be 56 today but that is not going to happen…and it’s supposed to be 31 for a high on Sunday with the rest of the week around 40 or so for highs…oh, well…no need to be irritated about that since there isn’t anything I can do anything about…and it was cold until May last year so there is precedent for it….I’m still laughing that I am on pace for another week of more miles on the bike than on the car….and I remembered to take gloves with me today and that made all the difference…really had a good, hard ride today and I look forward to that happening again some time….but rain is coming tomorrow and after how cold I got yesterday in the rain, I’m not sure I want to do that again…okay, so this one wasn’t fun…it wasn’t mean or mad so I guess that is something….

March 28th

Well….not sure how to start this one today…didn’t win the Mega last night and that is a little disappointing but I feel okay today so that is something….slept okay last night and even had some dreams that involved the battleship New Jersey and that was a little weird…but kinda fun….did get out on the bike yesterday in shorts and no gloves but that was a little bit of a mistake…started to rain as soon as I left here and with the wind blowing over 15 I was cold by the time I got back here and it took all day to warm up again….so today, I’m going to wait a little to get out….but it is going to be sunny today so that will help some….didn’t get anything else done yesterday and the kitchen and bathroom are still waiting for attention so I think I’ll choose one and just do it today…after coffee and a little news, that is…more later…

March 27th

Well…running a little early today and it may be boredom again….slept okay last night but just don’t feel right today…or, I should say I feel normal for just getting up…it usually takes a while for me to get going and today is no different….I did get the top down out and back to pool yesterday and got the summer tires back on the car…oh, and I lost at pool….I do need to remember to fix my cue stick sine the glue failed on one of the ferrules that hold it together….didn’t get anything done yesterday…well…that’s not true…I did work out, ride the bike, change the tires, and go out for pool so I guess that’s something…but today, I will get some cleaning done and come back here for another one….that will wait for a while until after more coffee….looks like I may be off the bike today since it is raining and that will continue most of the day….more later….
