May 20th

Well…running a little late this morning and it’s because I just can’t get going….may have to have 3 cups of coffee just for the jump start…slept okay last night but woke up really sore and I have been hobbling around which is really annoying….need to take an ibuprofen before the bike ride so my wrists don’t hurt…the good thing is my tricep has been better the past few days and that is a good thing…I don’t think my car has ever been as dirty as it was when I went out for the papers this morning…it appears that a whole flock of birds decided to crap all over it and it mixed well with the pollen that has been accumulating for the past week….going to wash it after I work out this morning since I just can’t stand it being so dirty….not much to do today….going to get some spider patrolling done and get rid of the stack of papers but that is about it…more later…

May 19th

Well…running a little late today and It is because I stayed up late last night and was not good…feel pretty crappy and it is cold in here…forgot to close the window in the kitchen last night and it is 46 outside so I may have to turn the heat on…might have had a falling out with T….not sure why that would be but haven’t heard from her since early Sunday….may have to prepare for not hearing from her again…slept okay and got up late and the only thing I want to do is go back to the couch…..I did make a little cash yesterday so I have money for the next month or so and that does feel good…there will be groceries this week and I may even buy something special for the holiday weekend…not much to do today…going to be a recovery day and I don’t really feel like doing anything so I just might take the day off an do nothing….more later…

May 18th

Well…running really late this morning and it is because of the martinis and Mad Men last night…just can’t get going and I kind of expected it but it doesn’t make it any easier….slept okay, I think, but I can’t be sure of that….no dreams again but that is expected, too….it is kind of cool that it is over 70 and it’s not even 9 yet and there is a neat breeze that is blowing through here…but, the humidity is still high and everything still feels wet….but, tomorrow is going to be 58 so I am going to enjoy today…..and get the bike ride in a few minutes….not sure if I liked the last Mad Men or not….going to have to watch it again today to make sure…..not much to do today….just the normal stuff and recovery….more later…

A lazy day…

Well…it has been a lazy day today and I really haven’t gotten much done…yet….okay, I won’t get anything done…I’ll admit that…but, I did clean yesterday so that counts for something, right? I did have a taste for potato salad and a huge bag of potatoes so I went out to get the rest of the ingredients…normally, I won’t go to the store unless I do it first thing in the morning when it’s not busy but I had another reason to go today…it is the last episode of “Mad Men” tonight and I thought it appropriate that I have a martini or two to close the show out…it has been a  good one for all of these years and I have seen it from the start so I do need to do something to mark it’s ending. And, I haven’t had a martini in a year or so and it just seemed like it would be a good thing…we’ll see tomorrow if it is or not….I wonder how they will end it…probably should go out to the Plex server and see if it is there yet…might not have to wait up to see it….I wonder what they will replace it with? Hope it’s another good one like “the Walking Dead”….okay…there’s a bike race on so I think I’ll go watch that…..

May 17th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I did get a few things done and I hope to do the same today…slept okay last night but I think I have a bug…I think I said that yesterday….have been coughing like crazy and feel like crap but that may be  that I wasn’t good last night or not enough calories…not sure….I did have a nice conversation with T by text yesterday and that was fun….the humidity over the past few days has been terrible and everything feels wet…the bike ride yesterday felt like I was breathing liquid and it feels the same today…came back completely soaked but did a long ride and that may have had something to do with it…that’s the plan today, too, in just a minute…need to get out before the Man U game at 11 and it could be a good one against Arsenal….not much to do today….there is qualifying from Indy and that will be great to nap to…and I do need to continue cleaning…more later…

May 16th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday but I lost at pool….for the third in a row…slept okay last night and feel okay this morning if a little slow but that is to be expected….no dreams at all and that is disappointing but more or less normal….didn’t get anything done yesterday so that needs to change today and I do need to clean the living room…not sure if I will but I need to…I did grill some pork chops that I had in a teriaki marinade and they came out really good so I may make some more today…I do have leftovers to use, though, so that may have to wait until tomorrow….not much to do today….I am going to get a bike ride in here in a few minutes even with it raining a little and then I need to do laundry when I get back….not much else but the Preakness and races later…more later…

May 15th

Well…running a little late this morning and there is no reason for it…slept okay…finally, but still feel worn out…I was thinking last night that I may have a bug of some sort…it kind of feels like it but it may just be the allergies getting worse and worse….whatever it is, I just had no energy yesterday and I hope that’s not the case today…I did get out to get the tank filled for the grill and it is good to be able to cook outside again…have some pork chops marinating in teriaki marinade that I am going to make later today and I hope they are as good as the ones I made a few days back in the oven….I am waiting to hear from T this morning about the big event that she planned and put on last night…not sure how she does it….not much to do today…pool, of course, and the bike ride this morning but that is about it….cleaning will come tomorrow and Sunday…..more later…

May 14th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made a little cash so that was cool…slept better last night but it was still not good enough so I am a little worn out today…I have been good all week so that can’t be it…not sure what it is but I hope tonight is better….I did have dreams but I don’t remember them…and they were good ones, too…so, I am a little frustrated to not be able to describe them…it would have made this one much longer….didn’t get much done yesterday so I am going to try to make that better today…I do have some errands to run this morning after the bike ride…have run out of gas for the grill and need to have the tank refilled so I can cook some brats or some pork chops this weekend….not much to do today….I do have the grocery run in a few minutes and I need to get some more allergy stuff….my head is killing me so that is going to be a priority….more later….

May 13th

Well…it was an okay day yesterday and I made some cash so that was cool….didn’t get anything else done, though, so that wasn’t…didn’t even get the bike ride in with all of the wind but I think that helped my soreness and I am not hobbling anywhere near as much today…I have been up since 4:14 and that is not going to be fun later in the day and I’m not sure what the heck is going on…not much sleep at all the past few days and it is starting to wear on me….at least the weather is going to warm up some today and the rest of the week…it’s the middle of May and it’s not supposed to be 38 degrees…..so it looks like quite a wait until I can get out today but that may be a good thing….not much to do today…going to just wing it and see what happens…need to check the mega ticket to see if I won…or if anyone won…I could use the cash…more later…

May 12th

Well…sitting here with my second cup of coffee and wondering why I’m running late today…I did have to do a grocery run since I ran out of food on a Tuesday and I’m not sure why that happened…I usually can plan and have food here that will last til Thursday…oh, I remember now…Meijers didn’t have the chicken that I planned to have this week so that’s what did it…so, I had to buy a pork loin today to make a stir fry and cut it up into some chops that I will marinade for use tomorrow…it seems like that is the only thing I do anymore…plan meals…what a bore….slept okay last night but my phone shut off during the night and I’m not sure what that was about…but, it started after I took the battery out of it so that was good…just don’t want to deal with phone problems right now…not much to do today…going to skip the bike ride since the wind is blowing 20 to 40 mph and I just don’t need that aggravation….and my back is sore so it can use a rest….more later…
