A Wookies return.....

Today was a good day….managed 11 miles at Brisbane and it seems I got one tick per mile😒. Afterward I hit the rail trail to see if the rumors of new pavement were true…they are, nice and smooth all the way to Manasquan. When I was done I had 22 miles on the Speedo and zero registered on the Cannondale Flow app. 😡 At least now I know what I did wrong and it won’t happen again……I will double up with my Garmin watch. lol. Everything has been good with my health lately so I’m happy about that. One of the folk I met at the lab just got a clear PET scan and is cancer free, I’m very happy for her, she had a rough time and hopefully she’ll get some strength back and be able to enjoy her new status!
Now I will end with a new post ending…the latest mileage on my bike….❤️ @jdog !!

942 !!!!
 
Beautiful day for a ride…warm and low humidity made for a great ride. There was a couple that were probably wondering if I was stalking them, but other than that I pretty much had the park to myself. Caught myself thinking about shit and almost ate it….not so good!!

Tomorrow is Father’s Day and I wish all of you dads a great day with your families, I will certainly be missing mine.

Well the last few days were a bit rough with big highs and lows. As @rottin' sadly found out after a “hey, how ya doin text”. Thanks for hearing me out. Some of it is my numbers went up another hundred points, but that happened last year as well when I got a bunch of tick bites….thanks for reminding me of that @Purl !! I feel horrible for anyone who goes through life alone, I would have gone crazy by now without the wonderful support group that constantly remind me that they are there for me. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ At this time my mother has returned from a trip to the ER after she fell out of her chair…she probably climbed out. So she’s back at the Care Facility and now is on Hospice care which makes me sad but she’s miserable so….. Oh yeah, my mother-in-law is in the same boat. There is something wrong with her but the docs are all saying that she’s 94 and it’s to be expected. 😢

So today I finally had my Saturn towed away and just cancelled the insurance and decided to hit the trails to unscrew my brain. Man it’s hot out but I don’t seem to heat up much due to the drugs. Yesterday I did a short ride and was actually feeling a little cool and wished I had worn long sleeves. Gotta talk to the doc about this shit, just seems weird to be comfortable on a 92 degree day. I see doc again on 7-1 so we will see.

974 !!!

First off, numbers shmumbrers… Billy, Tell him.

You REALLY do!

Mom and the MIL playing dueling ailments is certainly disturbing the quest for inner peace .

But choosing to pedal the Tsores away (or at least quiet them a bit) is definitely sound.

Doc Amin still owes us a ride. Thought we’d forget about it… but we didn’t.

Head up brother. Love ya.

Thank you brother!!! Like I said, you guys keep me going.

Doc does owe us a ride but his partner died a few months back and his workload doubled. I’m sure he will get out with us when shit calms down.

Not sure I've much to add, just that a visit south of the Wall is way overdue!

Hold fast sailor!
 
Well I haven’t done any outdoor riding the last couple of days due to the heat. The heat actually doesn’t bother me but I don’t want to take any unnecessary risks.

A day which I knew was coming has come. My wife’s beloved mother passed peacefully on Saturday just before noon. Cindy was by her side as was 7 aids (that should have been doing other things) and they all supported my wife and 3 of them sang gospel hymns for my mom-in-law, she loved that kind of music so I’m sure it helped her relax and fade away peacefully. I will sorely miss our eating competitions at buffets, she loved me like a son. It is so sad that in her final 2 years, she was no longer there mentally. At this time I feel I should really be sad, but she was so unhappy and constantly confused, that I’m happy she’s gone and her suffering is over. Bye mom 😢

So I a really strange twist of fate ….my mother passed this morning. I really don’t have words for it other than she is finally at rest. Life is so difficult at times and we make it harder than it needs to be. Here is a pic of me and both of them.
