Well….started looking for a new pair of running shoes to replace the Nikes that I bought almost 20 years ago and, with Meijers having a sale today with 40% off, I thought I’d go over and check them out after I washed the car this morning….as I was looking through them, I came upon a shelf that had clearance shoes on it and found a pair of size 9 New Balance shoes that are normally 65 bucks for the great price of $16.25…yep, only $16.25 for a cool looking black and grey pair…and, I can’t believe how comfortable they are. Technology sure has changed in 20 years…they are probably the lightest shoes I have ever owned and I’ve already had them out on the bike today…it’s pretty cool when good things happen….

Well….running on time today but got up after it was light and that was a little strange….too damn bright in my bedroom….but, I did sleep okay and feel okay this morning so that is cool…and I’m not really sore today and I probably should be after getting back on the bike….I hope I can get out in shorts today….the weather is starting to break a little but not enough for me….it is still in the 20’s right now and that is just too damn cold for the last part of April…didn’t get a lot done yesterday but today will be busier…going to wash the car and I need to go to Meijer’s to look for a new pair of running shoes to use on the bike…40% off is a pretty good deal….but, not right now…I need coffee and to read the news for topics for later….more later…

Well…running a bit late today with having to run the car to melt the ice off it…I hope for the last time….slept okay last night and feel pretty good today with being good for days now and getting out on the bike for the first time since last week….and I’ll get out on it again here in a while…but I am going to wait until I can go out in shorts without gloves….and, I’m not sore at all today, other than a little in my legs, but that is to be expected….didn’t get much done yesterday but I have quite a few things to do today…. but I’m not going to start until more coffee….and I need to read the news, too…I am going to cook some today with some Texas style ribs and some leftover roasted potatoes….I think I may clean some, too…but that will wait til the aft….more later….

Well…just had to talk about a little thing that happened to me this morning after I got my hair cut….it’s official, I am actually considered old…..the trigger for that? I got my first senior discount on my haircut…and, I’m not sure how I feel about that…I know I’m getting older but damn, this says to me that the dreaded day is here….okay, not dreaded and it made me laugh so I guess I’m okay with it….

Well…got up really early today and I’m sure I don’t like it…5:30 is way too early when I don’t have anywhere to be….but, I did sleep okay so that is something….and I’ve been good for a few nights now so that is another something…I am going to get sore again today with getting back on the bike so I may have to take some ibuprofen before I go out…I sure hope the snow is done but just looked at the forecast and we may get some more tonight….but, it looks like the weather is going to break over the weekend and we’ll get back to normal…and it is going to be almost 70 next week….now I have to decide if I’m going into shorts for the year…I need to get that done before May or it will be the latest I’ve ever done that….not much to do today….I am going to get my hair cut this morning and then I have an errand to run after that and then into the normal day….more later….

Well…running a little late today and it’s another day that I just can’t get going…slept okay last night and I’m not really sore anywhere which is a little weird…probably from not riding the bike for a few days and it snowed again last night so it will be at least one more day until I can get out again…maybe tomorrow afternoon…we did get out for a short day at pool…and I won…didn’t get much done yesterday but a few errands in the morning so I think I’ll do some cleaning today…after I get a lot more coffee in me, that is…I do need to start getting rid of stuff around here to get ready for the move later in the year but I guess I have time so there is really no urgency to that…I’m still waiting for spring to come…maybe next month? More later….

Well…not sure if I’m running late or not but I guess it doesn’t matter…slept okay last night but feel a little strange today and I hope that goes away after I have coffee…it was a completely wasted day yesterday with the races and other sports on and today will be the same with going out for pool later…it was really a pain with all of the ice yesterday and today it’s going to snow more…I really can’t describe how depressing it is to have the highs be in the 30’s until wed…it is the middle of April, after all, and I need it to get warmer…but, it looks like the weather is going to break later in the week and even be in the 60’s next week….not sure if I’m going into shorts for the year next week or not but I don’t think I’ve ever waited until May….not much to do today…just need the coffee to work and then we’ll see how it goes…more later….

Well…just took a look at the first one of the day and felt I needed to come back to add to it since it was so short….Just went out to clean the ice and snow off the car since the rain seems to be ending and it is warm enough for it to melt…just took some sheets of ice off it that are 3/8 to a half an inch thick and I am really damn tired of this crap…and it looks like I won’t be back on the bike until Wed since it is going to be cold enough that all this crap won’t melt off the trail until then… and, I’m sure I don’t like having to hibernate halfway through April….one good thing is my eyes seem to be better today and my allergies are not as bad as they were yesterday….the tv even looked blurry yesterday and that is a little concerning….okay, need to go back to the race so I’ll end this one here…I am going to do another one in a few minutes….

Well…running really late today with having to melt the ice off the car so I could go out and get the paper…man, I’m getting damn tired of there being no spring this year…slept okay last night and don’t feel too bad this morning but I do feel like my allergies are going crazy…the effect has been terrible for my eyes with them being itchy and full of crap….didn’t do anything yesterday but cook and that looks like what will happen today, too….just a little depressed and unmotivated so I think I’ll just let the day flow a little with no thoughts of what I should do….there are a couple of races on this aft and Man U plays at 11 so I shouldn’t be too bored…..more later…..

Well…easing into the day again and that makes me a little late today…slept in until 7:20 and just had my first sip of coffee….I like the days that I have fresh coffee and this is one of those…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get out to see K for a couple and it was the first time in a long time….have been in a lot lately and I do need to change that….how, I’m not sure but I’ll think about it…got a nice bike ride in but will be off it at least until Tuesday with the weather we are going to see…waiting for the ice storm to start and I hope I don’t lose power…supposed to get almost 3/4 of an inch of ice and, with the wind howling at 30 with 50 mph gusts, it could get ugly later….didn’t get much done yesterday and I am not motivated to do much today….will probably clean some in the kitchen or maybe get rid of some cobwebs but that will be about it…more later…
