If I had any far-flighted notions of being a good cyclist, I was badly disabused of them today. I took off with the boy in his trailer for a morning ride and almost collapsed when we got home. I went maybe a mile on slight hills.
I'll grant that I was pulling an extra sixty pounds along behind me, plus the weight of my bike (it's not a light-weight racer, let me tell you!).
My legs are rubber bands and my headache is just abating. I really need to learn temperance.
LJ has added the ability to add "tags" to journal entries. It's sort of like the keywords you use to mark Memories, but you're able to do it right from the update page. If you use S2, you and your Friends will be able to sort your journal entries. It sounds cool and extremely useful.
I have an appointment with my surgeon today. Jay had an MSDN event at the same time, so I've got the kids all afternoon. Already I'm ready for a nap...
I've started demanding "quiet time" - two hours in the afternoon where it's absolutely quiet in the house. Kenneth goes down for his nap, the girls read or play DS' and Jay and I get a little peace to work or nap. It's worked out pretty well so far - the days we do it are far less stressful than the ones we don't.
I've misplaced my EBT card. It's vanished totally, and we're running out of stuff. :( Getting hold of my case worker is a challenge even on good days.
I've almost got the layout of our shadow box done. It's gonna RAWK. Heh.
