It's been a little while...

Lots going on, just not a lot of writing.  I've been feeling burned out again, which seems to be a common theme in the summer here.   I just get sick of exercise and all that.   Not that I've stopped exercising, just sick of it in general.   I still intend to stay healthy, it just seems harder.

So what's been going on?   Well, I'm finally getting my knee replaced.   Yes that's correct I get a new knee next Friday and I'm more than ready to stop limping and feeling lousy.  It's going to slow down my workout regimen for a while but that's ok.   If all goes well I can consider running again.  Hard to believe, but I miss simple things like going for a walk, but I should have no restrictions after recovery.

We went to the Gorge to see DMB.   Great trip, too much walking.

Work has been busy as hell.

With all that ive been riding the bike a lot less.   When I was out in Seattle I didn't worry about exercise.  We were walking so much that I got plenty of activity.   I've also been in physical therapy and that kills a day of cycling.   I'm going to have to look at my goals and reset them, but I had to stop worrying about monthly challenges with that.   I'll probably pause my rings for the surgery and immediate recovery.   I just don't want to worry about that shit.

That's really it.   I just wanted to give a quick update.   I'll write some more before the surgery.

The world has gone crazy...   Stay safe
