Who needs 2 wheels anyway?

I went out on a new venture today. I found a unicycle in very good shape at a garage sale today and snatched it up at $30. I managed to ride it the length of my driveway and that was about it up to this point. I have faith though that I will get better with time. I have never attempted to ride one before but I am always up to a new challenge.

Tired but it was worth it.

In the past two days I have been working harder then I ever do at work. The timing was good for me to be temporarily layed off from work as a family with a crisis needed some help moving. They had so much stuff we filled up two 26' long full size moving vans and they are still having to leave things behind. I am tired and will recover from that with another nights sleep. And even though I am tired right now I feel really good inside.

Hope I can do this better.

I have been slacking on this blog. I have just tried switching to a new web browser that automatically puts me to all of my blog, facebook, myspace, etc. pages every time I connect to the web. Wit that in mind I hope it makes me think of keeping this updated more often.

New Years

I kept an annual tradition that dad and I have been doing for several years now. I went for a bike ride with him on New Years Day. Dad quit after 32 miles and stopped when we got to the park where he left his truck. I rode on and put in a total of 41 miles for the day. I rode my fixed gear Capo so that means I had to pedal all of that 41 miles.

Annual checkup day

I went to my epileptologist today for my annual checkup. It was pretty typical of the last several years. I have had no problems so we spend more time talking about almost anything besides epilepsy. Only thing he was concerned about was to caution me not to use generic drugs now that one of my meds can be had in generic mode. Other then that the most excitement in my day was changing the antifreeze in my truck.

Brrrrr

It is way to cold to be out doing anything today. I hate winter. Right now it is 23 degrees and the wind is blowing about 40 mph. It was about all I could do to drag myself out of the house for church today. Therefore I am catching up on some website updates I should have done ages ago.

I looked at my bike today, does that count?

Actually I went out in the back garage today to retrieve some mattresses that we got for two of our girls for Christmas. I decided to go ahead and put them on their beds since they are spending the day over at Grandmas. It is a lot easier to do without them being in the way.

The wind is blowing today with gusts up to 50 mph. Not a good day to go riding so one must find other things to occupy time. Sounds like from the week of forecasting that I have at least a week of no bike riding. Highs this next week are in the twenties.
