Well…it was a lazy recovery day yesterday and I think it was what I needed to start to feel better…the allergies have started to act up again but I think I can survive it….a disappointing Wings game with another loss but I’m not ready to give up yet…I do have the playoff beard going, after all, and that has to count for something….I really haven’t been into politics lately with Keith getting fired and not going out for the newspapers every day but I will try to get one of those out today…I do have to do the taxes today, too, but that is about a 10 minute process with how simple my return is…not much to do today…I do have lunch with T today and then meeting up with G later for a couple but that is about it….unless the wind calms down, I won’t be riding for a second day and my legs are thanking me….but, the rest of me needs to get out but I may have to wait until tomorrow…who knows? More later…

Well…it was a recovery day yesterday and I feel much better today but still warm so I think the process is not complete yet…the coffee tastes crappy and I’m just in a lousy mood right now…so this one will be short and I’ll try to at least be civil…it looks like the rain is going to move off later this morning so I may be able to get out on the bike later…but that will have to be after the Wings game at noon….and there is a Man U match on at 11 so I need to get everything done before that…yeah, I laughed at that one, too…this is really the only thing I have to do today….so I guess accomplishing that is going to be easy since I am done…more later…

Well…it was a long day yesterday and I planned to feel pretty crappy today…and the plan worked so this one is going to be short…it was pretty cool that Bertuzzi stepped up and pummeled Weber in the Wings game last night…okay…not feeling it so I am going to go back to the couch and wait for the temp to come up so I can ride…

Okay..it’s later in the day and I have gotten the bike ride in and I am starting to feel better but I think it will be a long term project….I do need to remember to eat more since I think that is part of it….and my right thigh is acting up with that same burning sensation that I’ve had for about a month and it is starting to concern me a little….not much to do today…I think I’ll just lay low here and try to heal up some…might even get the day off from riding if it rains tomorrow…oh, one last thing…last year, the 14th of April was the first day out on the bike…and this year, I’ve already gotten 700 miles in..so, maybe 4000 is possible this summer….

Well…this one could have been titled ‘more trail weirdness” but I just thought the 5’s thing was a little more catchy…out on the bike today, the strangest thing happened…riding through the woods…I saw 5 deer running in a row through the trees…then, further up the trail, I saw 5 ducks in a row paddling down Plaster Creek….then, a little further on, 5 turkeys crossed in front of me…not sure what any of this means but it was pretty cool…

Well…yesterday was pretty much a lost day…I did accomplish a couple of things but not enough….but, what is enough? I did forget to do the Red Wings update but that will come later this morning….the car is still running with no noise and that confuses me some…does a car fix itself? This one seems to at times….okay…I’m not feeling it right now so I’m going to stop here and come back later to make some sense…

Well…it was a disappointing day yesterday with the Wings losing the first playoff game….but the rest of the day was okay and I have to stay positive…and today will be a good one, I hope, but I need to get the coffee going and load up the slow cooker for later so this one is going to be short for now….I did have dreams in the later part of the night that included travel to either Canada or England…and undercover police….not much else so I don’t know why I’m sharing that. Going to get back to the slow cooker part…be back later for more now that I’ve caught up for the month….

Well….it was a day out yesterday…lost at pool but it was a hard fought week so I feel okay about that….another night of post apocalyptic dreams with guns and abandoned houses but I don’t remember the cause of the societal breakdown…it was weird but okay….the car seems to be okay but I think I need to start looking for another one…it is just worn out and rusting away slowly so I think I need to start doing the pre-work to find the Miata…but, not today…I have to do the grocery run to get ready for the Wings first playoff game and I think I’ll just concentrate on that…may have lunch with T today but it’s kind of iffy so I’m not going to count on it…do need to find the Wings gear and get ready for tonight but I do need to ride the bike today if it’s not snowing…right now, though, it’s water and couch time for a few minutes…more later…

Well…getting at this one really early today…it’s about 5:30 am but I couldn’t sleep so I thought I do this right now…it was kind of a fun day yesterday with some good news for a change and I don’t know what to think about that…let’s start with the car….went out Sunday to shoot pool with Tom and had what I thought was a rear wheel bearing that started to make noise…but the noise stopped on the way home and hasn’t come back yet…so that was the first good thing…the second one was getting the taxes done and finding that I only owe the feds 200 bucks versus the 2K that I expected….and then, last night, I had a nice night out with G and we laughed a bunch with no arguments….all in all, a pretty good day as my days go…didn’t sleep at all, though, but I’ll take that as a trade off any day…not much to do today…I am going to take a day to just smile at the sky today and maybe get that spider alert completed…it is going to be too cold to go out on the bike today and I think my right thigh ( really, both of them) can use the rest. I will get back here later for another one and since politics has been kind of boring lately, I may have to branch out to other topics…should do one on the Wings since the playoffs start tomorrow…more later….

Well…it was a long day yesterday…was going to shoot pool with Tom but forgot that the bars were closed…at least some of them…and one of the rear wheel bearings on the car started to make noise…but, by the time I got home, the noise had gone away….I am going to check it out today but I don’t have the tools to take it apart anymore so I’m not sure what I’m going to do…maybe just not drive it…who knows? I feel kind of crappy today but I know it’s a bug this time…so, I’m going to go back to the couch and heal up for a while….

Okay…got the workout in and feel a little better but I’m still sweating like crazy so I know I have something…I may even skip the bike ride…I did read the online papers but it still isn’t enough to get good topics so I may have to go back to the real ones to keep this thing going…yep….it is a bug….my stomach has gone to hell and I am sweating standing still….so, I am going to stop here and head back to the couch…more later…

Well…running normally today with Man U on and last week’s Mad Men coming on in a minute…yep, a pretty boring life when those kind of things excite me…but it does help pass the time while I wait for the temp to come up enough to go out….it was cold riding out to get the paper this morning and the wind was just brutal….I did have a little fun yesterday with meeting the twins and V over at Logan’s but the rest of the night was kind of a letdown…the Wings lost in a shootout and that puts them on the road for the first round of the playoffs….okay…I’ll be back later…want to watch some of the match…
