Once There was a Way...

We're in the typical monsoon season here where it is gosh darned beautiful all workweek long and rains all weekend long. It made gazing at our new patio out in the backyard rather painful.


That pic was taken Friday, the last time I saw sunlight until coming out of the gym this morning. I haven't ridden my bike(s) for ::counts fingers:: a LONG time and I'm starting to make my peace with that, though with a feeling of bitterness. I'll go down swinging (I hope) but I'm beginning to get that Zulu Dawn feeling about a century this summer.

I decided after forty five minutes on the upright bike on a pseudo-tempo workout (it felt really gooooood) to reset on the stats, er, stat since there's only one at the moment, my weight. I clocked in at 214 having not lost one single pound since returning from Poland.

But it's not all bleak over this way, my daughter's birthday is coming up, I have a kick ass patio, the dog is bringing all of us together in weird ways and I am sooo looking forward to getting to NC again.

Gotta roll, work doth beckon
