I've been trying to get used to wearing one contact for quite a while now. I overlook things all the time and I accidentally call the wrong people. It's starting to get old but I like having the contact and sunglasses when I am riding my bike. Last time June and I rode, it was so windy that she and I had trouble seeing after the ride. The eye without the contact was worse. It was red for a few days. June's eyes were really red since she wasn't wearing contacts. She has contacts now so maybe that will help. There are a couple of rides this weekend but i don't think June wants to go. Becky and Vivi might want to go though.

Choices for the weekend
There are a couple of rides this weekend and Vivi wants to take me to a show (burlesque or cabaret). It's my birthday weekend so i have to live it up. I haven't had a great birthday in a while, last year was ok...I had a drink with June, Robert, June's hubby, and Nathan. We laughed a lot. it was a fun day. Work is grind lately though so I can't imagine anything fun stemming from work.

Shopping
Vivi and I shopped today.It's the first time we've hung out in a while. My Norwegian buddy is in Canada for the next few days so I won't have a dinner date until he gets back to town.

Wind
I stopped for gas after work and the wind was unreal. After riding my bike 70 miles in somewhat windy conditions Sunday, I am sick of the wind. I know Spring is just beginning but I am so tired of the wind. I need to adjust my thinking and concentrate on the work out I am getting when it's windy rather than how sucky it is.

Bed Time
I felt good today so I'm really glad I went on the ride with June. I wish I had something cool like that to do sometime soon. Maybe there will be another ride soon besides the MS 150. I am going to bed early because I am a little tired.
Monday morning
It's Monday again and I don't have the day off. The good thing is that I am not too sore from the ride yesterday.

The day of the big ride
Everything went well today. Better than I thought it would. June and I managed to complete the 70 mile ride even though it was cold and windier than I would have liked. I'm glad we chose to do the 70 mile ride, we considered the 45 mile ride but opted for the 70 mile. It was tough though, especially since I fell before we even started the ride. I have a big blue bruise starting above the wrist of my right hand to the bottom of my thumb. Once I learn to stay upright this is going to be really fun.

Sunday's the big ride
June and I are supposed to ride Sunday. It's the Tour De Houston. She's wanting to ride 70 miles. I'm just hoping it doesn't rain. I told her I will go as far as she desires. I am a little surprised she wants to try 70 miles. She's supposed to be riding 75 miles by now to be prepared for the MS 150. In a bit the weather is supposed to get pretty sketchy but maybe it will pass as predicted and the ride will be great Sunday.

Head light
This time when my head light needed to be changed I didn't have to spend $300.00 after I asked someone to help me. Yippie
Grace and Frankie
I like Grace and Frankie on Netflix. One of the funniest episodes Lily Tomlin's character is going on about orgasms, vaginas and vaginal dryness. Jane Fonda's character can't even say vagina. It reminded me of the last guy I dated who was not open. I guess if you want someone to open up it's good to have some dynamite handy.
Lucky
Today, I got to walk with June at lunch, talked to a nice guy and made it to Body pump after work. It was a nice day. And so far so good with iphone. Also How To Get Away With Murder is on tonight. The only thing that would have made it better would be a call from my son or a bike ride but no day is perfect.
Do it yourselfer
As a do it yourselfer I can say it is a curse sometimes. My latest foible; I think I used the wrong sim card in my iphone when setting it up. I think I used the android card. It worked when I called my mom last night but time will tell.

I keep running into guys who were completely pw'ed who are alone now because their wives cheated on them. The last one who told me his story; bought his wife a corvette, gave her spending money, paid all her bills, etc. She cheated on him for the 4th time. He's a coworker of mine. All I said was, "You've lost a lot of weight." and bam, the flood gates opened up. Of course, I told him that I'm sorry about what happened to him. And then, he said, "We'll have to go get a beer sometime." I hope he wasn't thinking we should go on a date. I've heard about all I want about ex-wives on dates (the last two guys I went out with went on and on about their ex-es). Even if the guy wasn't on the rebound I am not attracted to him at all. And he smokes.

Dirty 30
We did the 21 Day FIX Extreme, Dirty 30 at lunch today and I was so sweaty that when Nathan saw me he said, "Oh my God, dude, you're so sweaty and your hair is so flat. You gotta do something." Dirty 30 is an incredible work out. Thankfully, it's only 30 minutes. I'm trying to get back on track with my work outs. Yesterday, I did P90 Cardio and abs which I have always liked. I think P90 is my favorite work out video. After work I made it to Body Pump for the first time in a while and it was so nice. I like Body Pump. I think June and I may do a 3 day cleanse. I probably need more than three days to get rid of all the toxins in me!!!

Beautiful weekend
It was fantastic here this weekend. I am so glad I live some place where there is basically no winter. Saturday morning June and I went to ride with the folks at Bike Barn and this time it was a great experience. The leaders of the ride were wonderful. We only rode 27 miles so I wasn't worn out. Hopefully, I caught up on my sleep. I know I didn't get much sleep the previous weekend Gil's snores like a man and it kept me up all night and then I had to get up super early to go to the Gator Ride. Next year, I don't want to volunteer I want to ride if I'm still in this area. I don't want to do the ride that includes the ferry it sounds like it could be a nightmare. I think people were waiting 50 minutes and more for the ferry. I enjoyed my company but it was very tiring because we hit all the touristy places and tried to fit in as much as we could in just one weekend.

End
I'm so glad it's Friday and the end of the week. All the weeks lately have been busy and trying. Today is going to really suck because we forgot to do something and Nathan is going to have to address it. The real problem is that we are so understaffed that we are running to stand still.

Sore
My back is a little sore from the 21 Day FIX Extreme cardio yesterday. One of the girls at work told me about a dance class Saturday night so I might go do that. It sounds fun and like some good exercise since it's some kind of pole dancing class.

21 Day FIX Extreme
We started the 21 Day FIX Extreme at work yesterday. Last time we did it one of my work out buddies said she got some good results. She has a wedding to attend in three weeks so hopefully she'll look great. I am hoping I enjoy it. I know I am gearing up for a diet change. I need to eat healthier food or maybe less food. Harold told me that I cannot gain another pound or I won't look good. Of course, I don't necessarily think I look good now and that wasn't why I started working out. I started working out because I was hoping to feel better. I do feel better, in general, some of that I would say is from taking the L Lysine and some from working out. I feel firmer and stronger.
