Well…I have finally been getting out into nature again and with the snow going away, there is finally a bunch of wildlife to see when I’m out on the bike. And yesterday, I saw a really cool thing that I was going denote “trail weirdness” but “duck skills” fit too…so you decide.
While I was on the bike going through a little cut that leads to a bridge that crosses a creek, I noticed a duck coming from behind me over my left shoulder at about 30 feet or so in the air….once it passed me, it did a 6 g 180 turn with it’s wings completely vertical so I could see the tops of them along with it’s back…when it reached the creek, it slammed on the brakes and stalled, folded it’s wings and fell 20 feet straight down into the creek that is no wider than 3 feet where it landed….one of the coolest bits of flying I’ve seen in a while…made me laugh like crazy….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and it was nice to get the windows open for a while…slept okay last night but I am having a hard time getting going today…just have no energy…at least the long bike ride yesterday didn’t leave any lasting effects….it was nice to be out in a t shirt and shorts but that looks like the last one for a while with the temp crashing later in the week…I am getting tired of this crappy weather and need it to break soon….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I did get some cleaning done and look to do the same today…need to run some errands later but right now I just want more coffee and the news….more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…well..I did get a few things done but not enough…slept okay last night but feel a little slow today and that means I am going to ease into the day…as I always do….still no pain anywhere and that is a little weird…after getting back on the bike, I usually hurt some in the legs but not today….I did get a nice bike ride in yesterday and I hope to do the same today after the temp comes up some….I will have to remember the ibuprofen today since the cramps in my hands were pretty bad yesterday….all of this is pretty boring, isn’t it? Yeah…even to me so I’m going to stop here and go get more coffee….more later…

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool…I did get to put the top down on the car on the way back so that made up for it…slept okay last night and woke up early today so there will be a nap later….I did get to watch the new Star Wars movie last night and it was pretty good…and my son updated the plex software so I can run it at the highest resolution so that is cool…and the new interface is quite modern looking so that is cool, too….will probably watch Deadpool tonight or watch the Wings game since they are struggling to get into the playoffs, again…I really hope it warms up so I can get back on the bike today since I have been off for a few days….not much to do today…going to clean a little and make a blt for dinner…Tom made a suggestion that I put mozzerella on it so I am going to try that today….more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…just a little cleaning but I need to do more…or I don’t…after all no one sees this place but me…slept okay last night but I woke up with the allergies being really bad today so it looks like I may have to take stuff for it all day today…at least I’m not sore today so I guess that’s something…and I haven’t been on the bike in a few days and that makes me grumpy…and it looks like another day off today since I have errands to run this morning and maybe pool this aft…and it is cold outside this morning…cold enough that the rain that was on the car froze and now the beaded drops make the car look like it’s wet but it’s frozen…cool looking but I am tired of the cold…not much to do today…errands and pool…maybe…but that is about it…I splurged and bought bacon yesterday so I am going to make some bacon, eggs, and toast for lunch…..more later….

Well…running really late today with some computer problems being the cause…I really do need a new one but can’t spend the cash right now…slept okay last night but no dreams again and that is a little frustrating…had to do another grocery run this morning since I forgot a bunch of stuff yesterday but I now have everything I need for the next week or so…spent a ton of cash this week but I needed to…I did get a new baking pan and used it for the first time yesterday…I heard a loud bang in the oven and the pan ended up twisted…it flattened back out after it heated for a while and it’s flat again now that it’s cool but I will be interested to see if it stays flat the next time I use it…I did save the receipt in case it goes wonky again….didn’t get a lot done yesterday since I felt really crappy with not eating enough so I watched a bunch of Japanese movies and just melted into the couch…hope today will be different…not much to do today….going to just try to clean a little after I finish this cup of coffee…more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I got a bunch of work done around here so that was cool…still have more to do today but it won’t be the three hours I did yesterday…slept okay last night and feel okay this morning since I have been good for three days now and tonight will be another…I do need to have 4 days a week that I am good to give my body a rest….I did have to do the grocery run this morning since there was a winter storm watch on that has since been cancelled…the 8 inches of snow has turned into a half inch of rain today and that does not break my heart at all….so, I guess I could have waited until tomorrow but there may be a little ice on the roads and the summer tires won’t really deal with that too well….I may have to go back again tomorrow anyway since I forgot about half the stuff on my list….not much to do today…have a bunch of repairs to my equipment that need to be done today and that will be the agenda after I get the workout in and get the rest of the work done…more later….

Well…running a little late this morning for absolutely no reason that I can think of…slept kind of okay and I think the bug is finally going away but I’m still coughing so maybe not…had another coffee maker die yesterday and didn’t want to buy another one so I took the three dead ones and made a usable one that will get me by until I see one on sale…kind of feel like McGyver this morning….I did make some cash yesterday so that was cool but now I need to get to work so I can make more…should have enough cash now to get through a month or so and I won’t feel bad about buying groceries this week…I did get a better bike ride in yesterday and had some life in my legs for the first time in a while and I want to get out again this morning before the wind comes up much more…and, it looks like the big snow that was coming tomorrow has shifted north so it will be mostly rain here…and that is a good thing…I’m done with snow for the year and have the summer tires on the car….not much to do today…need to get the exercise in and then cleaning…maybe a little other work, too, but I’m not sure…more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool…a shortened pool day but I still won…my damn coffeemaker quit on me this morning and I am irritated….the old one I got for 9 bucks at Target 15 years ago still works but this is the second one that has failed in the last year….slept okay last night but feel like crap today and have no energy so it will be a low key day today….didn’t get anything done yesterday and today looks the same….just have no motivation to do anything….so, I am going back to the couch to look for a new coffeemaker….more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…slept okay last night but feel a little slow this morning…the bike ride shook the crap loose in my lungs yesterday and I have been coughing since…and the ride was just brutal with the wind and cold so I think I’ll take the day off today….I did get my fed check yesterday so I’ll be able to pay the rent in April and that freed up the cash in the drawer so I can buy groceries for the next couple of weeks…not sore anywhere but my legs and that is okay….I know why they hurt so I can cope with that….need to get some stuff done today but I’m not sure if I will…may have pool today and that will take the afternoon that I usually use to clean…but, I wasn’t going to do that anyway so I guess that’s okay….not much to do today…pool, maybe, and that will be about it…not feeling any energy right now so I need more coffee and the couch…more later….
