Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool so that was cool…well…I kinda won…only put one 8 ball in out of the 6 games…slept okay last night and feel okay today…already have the slow cooker going with some chicken and smoked sausage along with potatoes and carrots….did a pasta sauce for the liquid and I hope it turns out okay….not really sore this morning but a little creaky that I hope will be worked out on the bike ride…I did get the bike cleaned the other day and the shifters finally started working after about 12 miles yesterday…have to lube them again today before I go out to make sure they continue to work…nothing more annoying than having them hang up and not shift when I need them to…not much to do today…going to clean today but that is about it…more later….

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…again…oh, I did get the bike cleaned but now it doesn’t work too well so I’m going to have to re-lube it and make it dirty again…slept okay but no dreams and I am a little resigned to that….I don’t hurt anywhere so that is a good thing and that will make the ride better today…I am training to break the 15 mile record and I think that will take place next week…need to get under 56:42 and I think I can do it…we’ll see….the spiders are back again and they will have to be dealt with over the weekend as will the vacuuming and most of the other cleaning…I am going to make crock pot chicken tomorrow so that will be good but I need to get rid of the leftovers so I will have containers to put stuff in…..not much to do today..pool, of course and I think I’ll wash the car this morning, too…more later…
June 25th
Well…running really late today with not getting out of bed until 7:30 this morning..the one thing I can’t understand is even with getting up that late, I still feel like I haven’t slept at all…and, with the looks of the bed, there was major tossing and turning last night…..didn’t get out to blues yesterday since K called an invited me over to hang out around the pool and that looked much easier….didn’t much else yesterday and I don’t feel bad about it…I’m taking this week off from guilt about anything and I am just going to do what I want instead of what I should do…in that vein, it was a cocktail night last night and I watched a neat little movie called “St. Vincent” with Bill Murray in it…pretty funny….not much to do today…need to look at the radar to see if there is rain coming for the bike ride but I may go anyway…don’t mind getting wet if it’s warm….more later…
Not much to talk about…
Well…it has been one of those days where I have tried and tried to find something to talk about with no success so I guess I’ll just do another one where I just talk about anything…I am a little disappointed that the air bag module failed in the car today…I know it’s 21 years old and the one in the MX-6 failed when it was about 10 years old so I guess I shouldn’t bitch too much…but, I may have to try to find one that will fit…it is a Ford part in 1994 so I may be able to get one from a Probe…have to check it out…I am a little concerned about he supreme court rulings that are due int he next few days…it will really give me something to talk about so that will be cool, but I don’t want the results of the King v. Burwell….maybe they’ll surprise me an rule the right way for a change…I may go out to see blues on the mall out at the Deltaplex tonight if I can get through the traffic…there is suppose to be a car show out there, too, and that may be fun and I need to get out and do something….more later…
June 24th
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much done…and the airbag module failed in the car this morning so I need to cover the light with some duct tape…they are just not available anymore and I don’t want the annoying light flashing…I did sleep okay last night and had a few dreams that included furnace blower belts and nuclear meltdowns so that was fun….went out and had a few with G last night which was kinda fun but I am feeling it today…need to get on the bike in a few minutes to get moving and that will make it better…I am taking this week off from looking for work and just living for a change but I am having trouble relaxing with that still hanging over my head…oh, well…not much to do today…just the tape on the dash and some cleaning…more later….
June 23rd
Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get out to have lunch with T so that made it better….did not sleep at all last night but the strange thing is I feel okay today…didn’t get a lot else done yesterday but watch some sports and the US team winning was cool, too…I do have a bunch of stuff to do today but that will only keep me busy this morning so that will leave the aft for getting some cleaning done…I can’t believe how dirty my car is even after all the rain yesterday…not sure how it got all the dust on it but it is certainly a pain….not much to do today…have to hit the bank this morning so the check for my plate renewal won’t bounce but that is about it….more later…
June 22nd
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get anything done…didn’t even take a drive in the car…just couldn’t get the energy up to to do it…slept okay, I think, but I’m not sure with how I feel today…but, that is my fault and I can live with that…it is really hot outside already and that is going to make the bike ride a little bit of a chore…but, that means we are going to have some storms later which should be cool….the bike has been working great lately and it’s been three weeks since the last flat so I think that is cured, too…I had a great ride yesterday feeling just as I do now so that is something to look forward to…may have lunch with T but I haven’t heard from her yet so I’m not sure about that one…not much to do today…just the ride and then lunch but that is about it…after more coffee, that is….need at least one more cup before I get out on the bike…more later…
June 21st
Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I was not good so I feel pretty crappy today…can’t remember how I slept so it must have been okay…I did get some of the kitchen done yesterday and will try to get the rest of it done today…watching the F1 race right now so this one is going to be short…I am going to get the bike ride in after the race if it’s not raining…need to check the radar…okay, I’ll be back in a while to add to this one…wow, big crash…more later…
June 20th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool…but, Tom made some shots that I just had to laugh at so that was fun…slept okay last night but I am running late today since I had the grocery run to do…got some bacon wrapped filets for 2 bucks each that I am going to have tomorrow along with lots of veggies that I am going to have today…no dreams again and that is to be expected with the way things have been going…don’t hurt much this morning and that will be good when I get on the bike in a few minutes…it is a gorgeous morning out there and I had the top down out and back for groceries…not much to do today…watching F1 qualifying right now but after the bike ride I need to clean the kitchen or something…more later…
Pop up birds…
Well…it was an early day out on the bike but it felt good after being bad last night…and, the strangest thing happened as I was heading out toward the east on the first leg of the ride…with the wind blowing about 20 right out of the east, a bunch of birds just popped up out of the brush beside the trail, hovered into the wind and then dove back down into the grass…this happened 5 or 6 times as I rode by and I swear they were doing it just to have fun…weird, weird birds…
