December 2nd

Well…up at my normal time today and I don’t feel too bad…my back has been cracking like crazy since I got up and that is a good sign…had a little pain yesterday and it feels good to have that done this early…slept okay last night but still feel a little worn out…not sure if I’m eating enough right now…and if I’m thinking about it, I probably aren’t….I am still coughing this morning and that is getting annoying….again….not sure what is going on but it is over 3 weeks now….not much to do today….I am going to make turkey soup today since I have veggies that need to be used and that will give me something to do…but I want to ride first and that will have to wait until the sun comes up….but I do need to get that done before Man U plays at 12:30…more later….

Neil Young Live…

Well….just finished watching Neil Young in a live streamed concert and I am just blown away…it is the most intimate that I have ever seen Neil…the concert was done at one of his hometowns… a little place called Omemee, Ontario….I found out about it by accident…Neil re-tweeted a tweet by Darryl Hanna that the concert was happening tonight and I was just freaking out when I saw that….and I figured out how to take the HDMI output from the computer and run it into my tv…I know that most people know how to do that but it was a first time for me….pretty darn cool night….

December 1st

Well…running late this morning and I really didn’t want to get up at all…and I lost my glasses overnight and can’t understand how they ended up under my bed…oh, well…didn’t sleep well and I am feeling it today…it looks like it will be a low key day today but I do need to put the snowies on the car today…I don’t really drive much anymore so I don’t have to worry about putting too many miles on them…and it is supposed to start snowing next Wednesday and then continue for 10 days or so…ick….and it is going to be cold, too…with highs only in the 30’s so I guess the winter clothes will have to come out….not much to do today….just work on the car and then clean a little but that is about it….more later….

November 30th

Well…running on time this morning with the grocery run and having a real paper to read….slept okay last night…well…not really…was up and down all night but I feel okay so I guess there was no damage done….and I was good last night so I feel okay today and I think the bug is almost over…my lungs are good today and I haven’t coughed at all yet so I’m hopeful that I’ll continue to feel better…I do have to find a new pair of shoes since mine just cracked the sole and walking in the rain is no longer comfortable…actually it’s kind of crappy in the cold and rain….so that’s a project to take on….will probably go online and see what’s out there…not much to do today….might have to make a run out to get some chicken but I may not until I use up the freezer food….and I will get a bike ride in when the rain stops but that is about it….more later…..

I’m bored….

Well….sitting here really bored and thought I’d come back here for one more for today….just a little one about something I saw on the ride today….heading down 60th street toward the park and standing right next to the street, in a small clearing was a huge 10 point buck along with a good sized doe…I looked at them, they looked at me and they just stood there until something spooked them and they took off into the woods….it was a little strange to have them standing where they were with some underground utility work going on not more than 20 yards from where they stood and all of the noise that makes….but, it was cool to see…..

November 29th

Well…running on time today but on time for what? Really don’t have much to get done on any given day so I don’t think I can not be on time…slept okay last night but I still have that low level bug I’ve had for three weeks now….still coughing and just don’t feel right….but, I don’t feel bad, either so this one is a little confusing…..the lung congestion is starting to break so maybe that’s something….I may have to start taking some ibuprofen when I get on the bike again….my legs are constantly in pain after the rides lately and I may need to get the inflammation down to help that….was nice to be out in shorts yesterday but today it looks like thermasuit again…took the long route all the way to the park but the wind was a little brutal….not much to do today…just going to clean a little and watch some soccer this aft…more later….

Is this weird?

Well…something that I saw on the bike ride just bubbled up into my brain and I thought I’d ask a question…is it weird to have a funeral home covered in Christmas decorations? There is one on Kalamazoo just south of 44th street that is and I can’t remember ever seeing one done up that way…is it weird or is it just me? Not sure…

Some good news…

Well…took a look at the top on the car before I went out on the bike to be able to formulate a plan to fix it while I was riding…and, to my surprise, there was nothing wrong with it…it just looked like it when it was folded in the cold…so that was some good news and made the ride much more pleasant…and, I got out in shorts with no gloves so that was cool…and the bridge into the park was repaired today, too…all new decking and guard rails…the parks department from Kentwood really takes good care of their trails….so, a pretty good start to my day….

November 28th

Well…just can’t get started this morning so this one is a little late…and I’m still coughing and I’m not sure if it’s allergies or that darn cold still…whatever it is, I’m tired of it and want it to go away…slept okay last night but feel pretty slow this morning so I’m going to ease into the day…and it is already almost 50 so I’ll get out on the bike in shorts today…and I’ll get on the top repairs after I get my workout done….oh, I did win at pool yesterday…and I had the top down out and back….and that was fun….not much to do today..after fixing the top, that is….just going to fool around most of the day and take it easy….more later….

November 27th

Well…running a little late today…didn’t get up until 7:30 again and that is getting to be almost normal…slept okay but didn’t have any dreams again….darn….it was an okay day yesterday but all I did was watch some sports and be bored….at least the Lions didn’t play and lose….I did get a nice bike ride in and did get over the damaged bridge into the park so I got a full ride in….and I hope it warms up soon so I get out today….it was only 31 when I went out yesterday and that is a little cold…not much to do today…have pool later but that is about it…and I need to do another one of these….more later….
