Well….the time change is still screwing me up today but not as badly as yesterday….slept okay last night and feel okay today but I am a little tired….didn’t get a lot done yesterday and today looks the same with pool this aft….I did get out and get a new pair of glasses so I can read this…only 6 bucks so no big deal breaking the other ones…..not sure why I’m sore today with only riding the bike yesterday….it appears that I’m going to be sore for the rest of my life and I’m not sure how I feel about that….after all, I’ve been sore most of my life so why should that change now? Not much to do today….going to clean a little but no cooking today…just going to live on leftovers for the next few days…I do need to figure out some new food since I am bored with what I have been eating….more later…

Well….after constant articles about all of the nastiness in the world and all of the hate, I just came across a little article over on Kos that reminded me that there are still good people in the world….a woman was in the hospital awaiting a liver transplant when she was told that she would never survive the surgery so it was cancelled and the woman was told that she would die soon….of course the woman was distraught from the news…shaking and crying in her bed when a random nurse saw her and held her hand to try to comfort her…the nurse then asked the patient what her favorite song was and gently sang it to her and stayed with her for hours just being with her on her own time….but that wasn’t enough…the nurse came back to her room for the next six days she was in the hospital and sang to her every day until the patient was moved to hospice where she died a few days later….When I sit here and bitch about having a crappy day…this type of story realigns my perspective in a hurry….and my belief that most people in the world are pretty good comes back to me….thank you to the caregivers and the good people out there…

Well…the time change always screws me up and this one is no different….and I broke my favorite glasses and the car didn’t start this morning…what a crappy way for the day to start…slept okay last night and I feel kinda okay today…will be able to get out on the bike in a few in shorts today with it being 50 already but then it gets cold for the rest of the year and I don’t like that too much….just in a crappy mood this morning and I’m not sure how long that is going to last….it is misty outside and I’ll end up wet by the time I get out a mile and I am not looking forward to that…not really looking forward to anything today other than Man U playing at 11:30…and they’ll probably lose and that will really make this a crappy day….oh, well….more later….

Well….got out early on the bike today…was out by 8:15 to beat the rain but had to do a half thermasuit with a stocking hat…but, that’s not what this is about….when I was just getting past the retention ponds by M-6, I noticed that there was a deer in the greenspace between the trail fence and M-6 that took off running along the fence when I got to it…after running about 20 yards down the trail, the deer stopped and watched me riding toward it until I got about 5 yards from it…the it took off and ran another 20 yards and did the same thing…this happened three more times until it decided it had seen enough, levitated over the fence onto the trail, then over the other fence and it was gone….something cool to see along with the half dozen deer I saw in the same area yesterday….

Well…running early for a weekend and I’m not sure why I’m up so early on a Saturday…but I am so I guess I’ll do this…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done….I did get a bike ride in and it was a little cold but with the sun I survived it…I had no back pain at all yesterday and that was welcome….it was a little funny how much it cracked yesterday and today is starting out the same….just walking around here it has been very noisy…to me anyway…not sure if anyone else could hear it…..might have to put a half thermasuit on to get out on the bike today….need to get the ride done before 11:30 when Man U plays Chelsea…don’t want to put a stocking hat on yet but I’ll have to…damn…not much to do today…going to clean a little but that’s about it….more later….

Well….have been feeling too good mentally the past few days to pollute it with thinking about the orange baboon in the WH….so I’m not going to write about him today….but, what does that leave for me? Not really sure….there hasn’t been a lot going on in science that I’ve seen..okay…going to go do a search with the phone and see if a topic may be there…not much out there right now…some scientists have figured out how to 3-d print stainless steel that is stronger than regular stainless….which could mean that just about anything could be 3-d printed….bugs are disappearing….Germany’s insect biomass has dropped over 75% in the past 30 years…not sure what that means since the rest of the article is behind a paywall…okay…not feeling this right now so I’ll stop here….more later….

Well…it was a pretty nice day yesterday with getting a good bike ride in and having a nice HH with T….slept okay lat night, too, but wasn’t good so I am feeling it today but that’s okay…my back didn’t even have a twinge of pain yesterday and that was so weird after having pain for more than a month…and my car started again yesterday morning so I am edging to thinking that it may be fixed…and that takes a load off….even had the top down on the run over to see T so I have my top down day in for November already….I used my new credit card for the first time to pay for HH with T and the credit rebuild begins…not much to do today….just going to wing it for the day…I do want to do a bleach load of laundry today to get some whites white again but that is about it…more later….

Well…running normally for a Thursday and that means a little later…had a pleasant surprise this morning when the car fired right up and it looks like there is no problem with voltage drain…it was just that the battery had not been charged enough….and the trip out and back to pool took care of that…and that takes a load off for sure…slept okay last night but slept on my right side that left a weird line in my face that I hope will go away as the day goes on…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…I did get a bike ride in and it was too darn cold….didn’t get warm the rest of the day…looks like I’ll have to get the winter clothes out next week…but it is already warmer now at 8am than it was all day yesterday so, if the rain holds off, I’ll get a ride in as soon as the sun comes up….I do have some things to do today…already got the grocery run done…and got some of the biggest chicken breasts I have ever seen…I mean 3 of them weigh almost 5 pounds? I may have HH with T this aft and it will be good to see her if it happens….haven’t seen her since a week before SD and that is too long…more later….

Well..another month starts and I am not ready for it to snow….slept okay last night even with being good and that is unusual…even had some dreams where I had hair and I don’t know what that is about….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but some laundry and running the dishwasher so I’ll have to do more today….I do have to get out to get some milk this morning and I think I’ll buy a paper, too…sure hope the car starts….almost bought a coffee maker the other day and I think I will in the near future….they are only 20 bucks but Tom had the idea of getting a french press like my son uses but they are almost what a coffee maker costs…and I like the idea of setting it up the night before and having the coffee ready in the morning….not much to do today….going to have to wait to get out on the bike until later since it won’t warm up enough until around noon….more later….

Well….it was one of those weird days today when I had expectations an they didn’t pan out…no turkey at Target, no wipers at Menards, and no HH with T…so it ended up being pretty boring today that I think I needed…was just damn exhausted all day and I’m not sure why….took the day off the bike, too, since I just couldn’t take the snow….and rain…and cold…but, tomorrow will be different…at least the car started in the morning but I’m still not sure about it and that uncertainty is a little stressful….okay…this one is done as the month is….not bad…but it all starts again tomorrow….and I am out of milk….
