July 17th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much accomplished…stayed up late and got up early so I am a little worn out but I will get the workout in and ride the bike since that seems to be all that I do anymore….I may wash the car today, too since I have some cash and want to make sure I get it done while I have a few bucks….my back has been troubling me the past couple of weeks and it seems that the pain is just moving around from high to low when I get up in the morning…may have to take something for it today but don’t want to get in the habit of taking pain meds for every little thing…not much to do today,,,and that is true…so I guess I won’t do much….more later…

July 16th

Well…it was kind of a long day yesterday but I had a fun birthday…heard from all of the kids and had a couple with T and then out with G and N for quite a few so I feel like I should today…crappy…so, the coffee is needed and I do need to get out on the bike when it warms up…no workout today…just don’t feel like it so I’m going to indulge myself and not do it….slept okay, I think, but I do want to take a nap now..but, I won’t….I do have a bunch of stuff to get done and some errands to run…then, I’ll take it easy this aft….and come back here for two more today since I am getting behind again…more later…

July 15th

Well…another year has gone by…I’m a year older and a year more broke…but, I am still alive so I guess that’s something…and I’ve made enough cash this week to last through the end of the month so that is one bright spot…up too damn early this morning but that is also becoming the norm…oh, well…I could go on about getting older and all that crap but I just don’t feel like it…I do feel like having more coffee so I guess I’ll do that…not much to do today…going to make a little more cash this aft and then out to have a couple with G for my birthday but that is about it….I’m not going to think about work or being broke or anything else today…just going to work out and ride the bike then back here to splurge a little on a pizza for lunch….more later…

July 14th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and the team that I predicted won the world cup…and, in a pretty good game…but, I am going to talk about that later…slept normally…and crappy…but, who cares? I did get a few things done but today and tomorrow, I am going to just screw around since it is my birthday tomorrow…I am going to try to find a place where I can get a free meal just for the heck of it…I do still need to work out and get the bike ride in but there won’t be any grand gesture this year to prove that I can still do things….proved that to myself a few years back….not much to do today…I am going to clean a little and do some laundry but that is about it…more later….

July 13th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I got a few things done…and Brazil lost the third place game so that made me smile…what an overrated team…slept okay, or I should say better than what the norm has become so that is a plus…had weird dreams where I was working again and that was strange….left the kitchen window open last night and the counter and window were soaked when I got up…didn’t think it was going to rain last night…oh, well…..getting ready to get out on the bike early today but I have been having trouble getting the seat adjusted right…and that it so annoying when you’re on it for over an hour a day….not much to do today…the world cup final, of course, but not mush else…may do the kitchen since I felt good after getting the bathroom done….and I will probably come back for a world cup wrapup later….

Computer glitches…

Well…it has been a day with getting some cleaning done…finally…but I have had computer problems all day that I think are finally ironed out…just like my phone, when this thing does updates, it screws it up…had it running all day with the updates and the router looked just like it was running a movie all day….seems to be alright now…but, when I cleared the history, I lost the login to my site but my son just texted it to me and now I’m up and running again…sitting here watching a boring movie….yeah, I know, why? There was nothing else to do after the soccer match ended so I thought I just try one….but, it is cocktail time now so I’m going to end here and go back to the boring movie….

July 12th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I won at pool for a second week in a row which is really unusual…another night of crappy sleep and that is getting frustrating…up at 5, again, okay…not going to talk about that anymore….it was a nice ride out and back with the top down and I did the same thing going for groceries this morning….I am looking forward to the third place game in the world cup today just to see how bad Brazil is going to play…I am going to finish the bathroom today and get some other stuff done but it is going to be one of those low key days…going to lay out in the sun to get dome color before the soccer since the biker tan is getting pretty ridiculous….more later…

Kamikaze dragonflies….

Well…there has been one stretch of the trail that has huge amounts of those blue/purple dragonflies on it the past couple of days…that in itself is pretty cool, even though a few of them hit me at 20 mph which stung a bit….today, I decided to see if it was accidental or on purpose…while riding through the area, I decided to look up the trail to see if I could track some of them and get out of the way…well…this worked for most of them but there were three that changed direction and ran right into me again…with the first one, I just moved a foot or so to the right and it hit me in the chest…for the next two, I moved a full lane, waiting until they were almost upon me before moving and they still hit me…one of the strangest things I have seen in a while and this behavior is the reason for the title….weird…

July 11th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get the shower cleaned so I guess that is a start…I did scrub the grout with a brush, too, so that was more work than I planned…will have to do the rest today..or maybe I’ll wait til the weekend…slept really crappy again even with it being a cocktail night so I’m not sure what is going on…and the cocktail night was not any fun so I guess that maybe I’m past that, too…I did have a funny thought this morning when I opened my mail and found my new driver’s license..this could be the last one I ever get…just like the Miata could be the last car I ever own…weird…might be because my birthday is coming up and I just hate getting older…oh, well….not much to do today…the rest of the bathroom and pool but that is about it…and I am going to try to not get further behind here…more later….

July 10th

Well…running really late today since I had some cash in my pocket and had to get some groceries before it all evaporates….was out of everything but today I will have some pork chops to grill…but, that is almost out of reach now with the prices going up so far…back to chicken, I guess…slept crappy again last night and I had really hoped that it would get better…I guess I’ll try staying up later if I don’t get too bored and see if that will help….didn’t get the equipment fixed since they didn’t get the part so I have to cripple on for another week…oh, well….not much to do today…I do have to do the bathroom…but, I have been saying that for a couple of weeks now…the next time I use it I will have to fight my way past the spiders…more later….
