December 20th

Well…running a little early today since I was good last night and got up early…feel pretty good this morning but still have that pain in my back that is becoming annoying…I did make enough cash yesterday to get groceries this week and I am going to get my hair cut this morning since I am looking shabby and need to clean it up a little…have more errands to run again this morning and that will happen after the haircut…until then, I still do need coffee even though I feel pretty good….it looks like a little warm up over the next few days and that will be welcome…haven’t washed the car since it started snowing and it needs to be done…and I need quarters to shoot pool Friday….after the errands, don’t have much to do for the rest of the day other than clean and a few other little things around here…have to start figuring out meals for the rest of the week….don’t think I’m going to make anything special for christmas…will probably do the pork roast Saturday and then just have leftovers Sunday….do need to get some spicy mustard for sandwiches…more later….

Another day….

Well…I know I’ve been off topic a lot the past few weeks but I am still depressed about the election and just can’t seem to accept the hellscape that Trump and his cronies are going to turn this country into….but, that’s for another time….right now, I just need to try to keep pace and not fall too far behind for the month…could talk about movies or tv shows and I think I will later…but right now, I am just going to noodle a little to make sure I don’t lose the ability to write…some might say I never had the ability to write and there are days that I may agree with that but not today….with not being able to get going this morning, everything was just a step behind but I did get out and run an errand…made a little cash and then went out to buy a new pair of gloves for cheap…they are really kind of strange since the have something in the leather that allows me to swipe the screen on my phone without taking them off…just needed a new lightweight pair that I could use driving the car since my last pair just wore out….not sure how much I like them but didn’t pay much so I can live with them…especially with how cold it has been..just not used to that yet…more later….

December 19th

Well…running late today and just can’t get started….I think it’s from not eating enough and the damn cold I have…and it might be that I’m depressed from the unrelenting cold and snowy weather….and not being able to get on the bike….might have to just hunker down for a while until I get used to it….didn’t get a lot done yesterday but didn’t need to so I guess that’s a wash…I do need to clean a little today but that will have to wait until the motor gets running…I do have an errand to run this morning and I am not looking forward to it…but, it will mean a little cash so that will help…I am sore everywhere again and I am not sure what that is about…must be sleeping wrong again…it is bad enough to take some ibuprofen so I think I’ll do that right now…more later….

A funny music day…

Well….it was really an odd day yesterday…didn’t watch any shows but ones on music an AXS tv….the day started with a 2 hour doc on the Allman Brothers….then the farewell concert of Cream was on from 1968…then there was a concert by Eric Clapton from 2007, and the day ended with Joe Walsh on guitar Center sessions….so, I spent the day vegging it out and watching most of the day. Music has become much more important to me as I have been isolating myself from the world and it was cool to learn a bunch of stuff I didn’t know….so, you’ll probably see me writing more about it…

December 18th

Well….feeling pretty crappy this morning and I think I have another damn cold…back to coughing and feeling slow so I think today will be a take it easy day…I did get out and have a couple with K last night and that was fun but it started my night too early and that might be part of why I don’t feel that hot today…oh, and a second day of only one meal is part of it, too….today will have to be different or I will just get worse….I really should get some stuff done around here today but it is looking like the couch may win…at least this morning since the coffee is not working…need to get back to soccer and get another cup so I am going to end here…more later….

Find the cost of freedom…

Well…yeah, you’d think that this one would be a heavy essay on freedom and the cost to maintain it…nope, it about the song “find the cost of freedom” by CSNY on their live album “Four Way Street”….every time I hear someone play Taps on tv, Find the Cost of Freedom comes into my head…not sure how that association came to be but it happened last night…enough that I had to get my mp-3 player out and listen to the song….still takes my breath away…only two verses that are identical but every time I hear it I get chills…and the rest of the album is not bad, either….

December 17th

Well….man, I’m exhausted this morning and the only thing it could be is way too few calories yesterday….trying to make up for not riding the bike and I think I went overboard….will need to fix that today….I did win at pool yesterday but it was close…and it was fun but I didn’t like the new bartender….it snowed more last night night and that is depressing…at least it wasn’t the 8 inches they were predicting earlier in the evening…I will still have to clean off the car sometime today but that can wait for later…I do have some work to do around here today along with cleaning but, feeling like I do, that is going to wait, too…..need to get to the coffee earlier in the morning….and I do need to come back for three of these today but my brain is not working well enough to come up with a topic….more later

December 16th

Well….running a little late today….not sure why other than I got up late…have been feeling a little worn out lately and I have been good so I’m not sure what it is….still cold in here even with the heat set at 75…this does not bode well for surviving this winter…but the weather is supposed to get warmer next week after a few days more of even colder….not sure why it’s bothering me so much this winter….I think I’m irritated with not being on the bike…it’s just not the same working out on the weight machine…I do have food for the next week but I do have to do something with the rest of the ham today…maybe one last ham sandwich for lunch? Then it has to go in the freezer for soup in a couple of weeks….don’t have a lot to do today other than pool so that’s going to be it…need more coffee so I think that’s what I’ll do…more later….

What you never want to be….
