Errands Galore

Yesterday was a day for a slew of errands. All by bicycle, the weather providing very comfortable conditions, at least for the first two hours. It must have been my longest ride so far this year. My exercise journal is growing denser as I work in more exercise. Then I was charged with roasting a sirloin tip roast, which didn't go well.

I need new tubes. I have more problems with failing valves on my tubes than flats. All the tubes made in China these days. I have to pump up my front tire every time I go out and fear the valve will completely fail at the apogee of my ride. Metro Mountain Bikers, speaking of deflated tubes, is having a movie night this Sunday. A fundraiser, bring your own meat.

Despite the even more attractive weather today I didn't get in any exercise. And I haven't checked my weight for a while. Today was a bummer for some reason. I need more socializing to keep myself motivated. I also failed to take my camera on my last ride so I only have this picture of my favorite rabbit.

My trips to the gym have been sparse also. But I did get back to the book tonight after not writing at all yesterday. 1,000 words a day for a few days when we were under the deep freeze. Then our busy weekend cut into my writing time. Not only the business but some things were going on at SARUP that I checked out. And my book writing cuts into my blogging time. I have pieces for several of my blogs I want to get to, but haven't been able to focus.

The snow is disappearing quickly as the freeze turned to a great thaw and a recent large solar flare will soon speed things along. Great for riding. I have to treat the peach tree before any leaves sprout. Two more weeks of Winter but time starts flying with Spring and all the work it entails. Can't let the peach tree slip my mind.
