Downtime

Today was one of those days that if I didn’t have 2 border collies that make me get out of the house I probably wouldn’t have. I wish I didn’t feel guilty about not doing anything, but I do even when I probably shouldn’t.

The weather was outstanding today and I basically wasted it in my LazyBoy watching F1, and football. At least I got most of the weekend details out of the way yesterday.

I vacuumed up the mounds of dog hair off the floor from 2 shedding beasts and got my grocery shopping done. Though I wonder if I would have even got that done if I didn’t have to go to the office to pick up my wallet. I had left  it there on Friday.

I redid my bike rack so my commuter bike didn’t sit in the middle of the floor since it was too much a pain in the ass to put it up. I also added slime to my mountain bike tubeless tires in prep of a ride today, but I wasn’t motivated enough to actually ride. At least I know I will get my mileage in commuting to worI k this week. I even took clothes in yesterday when I went in to get my wallet so I could ride 5 days if I feel up to it. My new route is much better on my lungs than the old one, but I do worry about getting hit like I did a couple of weeks ago. That was scary.

I rode my Cervelo to the office to show it off and see what difference the lighter ride makes, but I definitely do not like the backpack over the saddle bags on my Bianchi. It made my back hurt. There certainly is a performance hit with the extra weight, but I prefer the bags and the much more robust tires on the streets I have to commute over.

Well, at least I got a post up . . .
