Well…it was just a standard day yesterday but the equipment problems have been solved with the arrival of a replacement piece…and getting the new laptop fixed all of the problems I have had over the past 3 weeks….have been good the past few nights and feel pretty good this morning but I still have the stiffness in my lower back that has been annoying but I can live with it…didn’t get much done yesterday but that is okay…today will be different since I am not getting on the bike today with the rain and ice,,,and it’s not getting over 30 today and that is just too cold to go out….I do need to get my state taxes done and I think I may do that today to get that off my plate…but, I don’t have a lot else to do so I think I’ll watch some soccer this aft and veg…more later…

Well….with the new equipment that arrived today….I have had way too much new stuff come into my life in the past week or so….not that I’m complaining…the new computer is pretty cool and the new piece of equipment was really needed so I guess I’ll just have to adjust….and let things get back to normal….it is cool to not have to wait for the computer to decide if it is going to do something…and I think I’m going to speed up my internet tomorrow….for 7 bucks a month I can quadruple the speed and with the new livestreams on Plex, I may be able to get rid of the dish by the end of the month….

Well…didn’t get a lot done yesterday but I did make a little cash so that was cool…and I did work out and ride the bike so I guess that was something…still pretty sore today but I did remember to take something before I got on the bike so it was not as brutal as normal….will have to remember to do that before I go out today….I do have to adjust my calorie intake today to make up for the 600 I burn on the bike since I have just felt exhausted the past few days and I know it’s from not eating enough….or from getting old, I’m not sure which….don’t have a lot to do today but wait for some equipment that is supposed to come today so I think I’ll just take it easy and wait for it…but first, I need coffee….more later….

Well…on a lighter note after all of the sturm and drang about trump…I know this has been a relatively mild winter but sitting here right now there are the shadows of insects outside my window…now, there are not supposed to be insects flying around in February in Michigan….just not supposed to happen….but I am not going to bitch about it too much…..I even found a few ladybugs in my place over the past week and that is not normal, either…..this is not a normal February by any stretch of the imagination….and with the temps forecast to be around 60 over the weekend the weirdness will continue….and I will get to put the top down on the car…..

Well…sitting here waiting for the coffee to finish and can’t figure out how it’s gotten so late and I haven’t gotten moving yet….I know I slept in a little but my brain is just not starting…I wonder if I need to reboot….didn’t get a lot done yesterday…actually, didn’t get anything done yesterday and I don’t really feel too bad about that…I am going to get a workout and a bike ride in today but I don’t need to cook since I have leftovers for the next couple of days….and I have lots of stuff in the freezer so I don’t need much to buy for groceries this week….my back is still sore from the last bike ride a couple of days ago so I need to remember to take something for it soon….the last ride was brutal without it and I think I still have cramps in my feet from it….okay…the coffee is finishing and I sorely need some…so I’ll end here…more later…

Well….I just noticed that I had a record month for quantity in January and from looking at where I am so far this month, it looks like I am going to shatter that record…I mean, I have never had over 40 of these done in 12 days before and probably won’t again…I am happy that I started reading the news again to give me plenty of topics to get outraged about and there will be more of that coming tomorrow…after all everyone in the trump administration lies constantly and someone has to call them on it…the normal media won’t so I guess it will fall to all of us that do these things to do it….and I have a new computer so I feel obligated to try to wear the letters off these keys just as I did the last one….but, that will be for tomorrow…I’m going to veg it out for the rest of the day….no more later….

Well….woke up feeling pretty crappy this morning and part of it was going out to have a couple with G last night….didn’t get back here until after 9 and that is late for me right now….I did get out on the bike yesterday and it was just brutal without taking anything before I went out….really missed out on the the whole prep routine so my face was pretty sandblasted when I got back here…and it looks like I won’t get back on the bike today with the rain…I’m pretty sore this morning so maybe that’s a good thing….I am using the new computer today and it is a little strange having all of the letters on the keys….and the keys are really easy since they are new….not going to do a lot today other than cook and watch some soccer….don’t need to clean since I did that earlier….and I’m not too motivated to do anything right now….more later…

Well….yeah, I know…no politics today so far but I may do one of those later…I did get back on the bike today and it hurt like crazy….forgot to take ibuprofen before I went out and that made it torture…it looked like there have been a lot of trees down on the trail and I counted at least a dozen spots where trees were cut up…not sure when that would have happened since I don’t remember there being that much wind….hope to get out again tomorrow if it isn’t raining too much….I sure do like this new computer…

Well….just a short one to say I have my new computer! It is really weird to have something that is modern and up to date….I’ll have more later once I fool around with it a while….

Well…sitting here waiting for my son to come over so it’s a good time to do this…oh, and I won at pool yesterday….slept pretty crappy again last night and I am worn out today so far….not sure what is going on but I don’t like it….it was a pretty good day yesterday but I didn’t get a lot done…I did get some cleaning done so I wouldn’t have to do that this morning…not sure how much I’m going to get done today…I am going to get a bike ride in after the Man U match at 10 but I think that will be in full thermasuit since it will still only be in the 30’s…I am looking ahead to next weekend when it is going to be in the 50’s for three days straight and with every good day, we are getting closer to spring….okay, need coffee and to watch some soccer….more later….
