Sunday…Sunday…

Well…it has been one of those days for me today…the cold or whatever it is is back with a vengeance and I have felt like crap all day today with coughing and sneezing and generally no energy…and Man U lost this morning so that was depressing, too….the time change is hitting me right now with it being dark around 5:30….ick…I did get the shifter on the bike adjusted so it works fine again but the bike ride was just off somehow…I just sit differently with the thermasuit on and that takes some adjusting to…May have to do some more work on it tomorrow since I do want the front shifter to work, too….the Red Wings are going through a let down right now from the win Friday night…the just look slow tonight…okay….that’s enough…now I don’t have to feel guilty about getting behind…

November 2nd

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but too much going to have a few with both G and K…that took a lot out of me and I am feeling it today…and the time change always has an effect for a few days….didn’t sleep well at all and that, with the bug, has me wanting to hit the couch right now to watch the Man U game…I did get the bike ride in yesterday even though it was 29 degrees when I went out…a little cold but the thermasuit did it’s job…I did break a rear shift cable about 3 miles from here and had to ride back in top gear since the front shifter is a little stiff from not using it…I did get it fixed, though, so it will be interesting to see how close I am in the adjustment…okay, the match is starting to it’s couch time….more later…

November 1st

Well…another month starts with more depression with having to pay the rent today…oh, well….and I didn’t win the Mega last night so I’m still broke…I did win at pool yesterday and put another 8 ball in on the break for two in one month…I’ve never done two in a year before so that was cool….slept okay last night but no dreams to speak of….and I didn’t get much done either but I hope to rectify that today with cleaning….not sure if I’ll get a bike ride in today since, if I do, I’ll have to do a half thermasuit and I’m not sure I want to do that yet…it will all hinge on if it’s sunny or not…not much to do today…cleaning and soccer and football is about it…and another one of these so I don’t get behind…more later…

October 31st

Well….it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so that was cool…but, it is the end of the month and that is one of the worst days for me…slept okay last night and had some dreams that I can’t remember….and they were pretty vivid…darn….still feeling pretty crappy today with the cold that I have but it’s not getting worse so it can’t be the flu….and that is a good thing even if I don’t have anywhere to be….might have lunch with T today and that will be fun if it happens…haven’t seen her in quite a while….not much to do today….pool, of course, and then back here for the Red Wings but that is about it….and one more of these since it is the last day of the month…more later….

October 30th

Well…yep, it’s a bug…still feeling kinda crappy and coughing like crazy but I’m not sure if it will get worse or stay at this level which is almost tolerable…not really, I’m pretty miserable but that’s life..slept okay even with being good and no aids and had some really weird dreams that had me late for my son’s wedding and there being no way to get there…and some idiots wrecked the Miata…strange and crappy stuff going on…I did get some stuff done yesterday but after the coughing started, I basically just vegged the rest of the day….not much to do today…have to run some errands but then the rest of the day will be nursing the bug and trying to get better….hope I do….but probably won’t….more later….

Not going behind…

Well…even though it has been a short day here, I am not going to go behind since I got caught up yesterday….so, I need to figure out something to write about….I am depressed that it may snow Friday…not going to put the snowies on yet…it’s just too darn early for that…once I do that I shift into hunker down for the winter mode and I’m not ready for that either…only three more weeks until I get out of shorts for the year…but, if it’s warm enough, I’ll go past that one…it’s been over 13 years that I have made it to t-day and I can’t let the streak die this year….I am feeling really crappy now with coughing and sweating and I know it’s a bug and I don’t like this at all…it’s getting into my brain and I can’t think of anything else pertinent to write….so, I guess I won’t….tomorrow….

October 29th

Well….as you can see, I’m running really, really late today since the server that contains my site has been down all day…just came back up a minute ago so I now need to get caught up…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…I did get the bike ride in but the wind was brutal and it took a lot out of me by the time I got back here…slept crappy again last night and I guess that is the new normal…feel kind of crappy today, too and have just started to cough and I just don’t want to be sick but I guess there’s not much I can do about it…I am going to take some vitamin C here in a minute since that helps some people and I hope I’m one of them…I did get some stuff done around here but it has been such a low energy day that I kind of figured there was a bug or something even before I started to cough….so, were almost through the day and I’ll have to think about the second one and get that going soon…more later…

October 28th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get a few things done…finally got the abrasions on the Miata’s top repaired and got rid of the duct tape so that made me happy…slept crappy again last night but had dreams with Anthony Bourdain and a VW bus in them along with lots of cooking…weird…..it was such a nice day that I took a long bike ride since today may be a washout with rain all the way down to the southern part of Indiana and heading this way…I am cooking some slow cooker chicken soup today just to see if I can do it…got some chicken leg quarters for 79 cents a pound yesterday so I thought I’d use the carcass from last weeks chicken and one leg…..not sure how it will work but I had to try….not much to do today….just soup and working out so far….might think of something later….

October 27th

Well…running late again today and I just can’t get moving for some reason….it was an okay day yesterday but I totally vegged after the bike ride…still feel tired today but I think the coffee is starting to work so that is a good thing…dreamt about water all night last night…drinking it, that is, and when I got up I was really, really thirsty…I know, pretty weird….it looks like it is going to be quite warm today…all the way up to 74 and that means I should do something that involves putting the top down on the car…I do have some errands to run so maybe today would be the day to do it? Supposed to turn cold later in the week and the dreaded thought of snow tires hit me for the first time today…I did have them on the car the 2nd week of November last year and I do hope that we don’t have another winter like the last one….that would just be too depressing….more later…

End of the month…

Well…it is getting to the end of the month and I don’t want to get further behind so I guess I’ll noodle around here a little and see what happens…the group that I saw last night was not one that I had seen on tv…I think the tv one was the string cheese incident…these guys reminded me of a 70′s hard rock band with a  little funk layered over the top of it…but C and I said the same thing after the first set…very repetitive…all the songs sounded the same and I could only take so much of it….and my ear is still fuzzy this late in the day so I guess I need better earplugs next time….I did get out on the bike today since the Lions were stinking up the place…but when I got back the had come from 21-0 down to win the fricking game…just like they did a few weeks back..weird….okay….can’t think of anything else right now but I just may come back for another one…I am behind after all….
