Something that is part of your routine that you enjoy.
Every workday begins with a shower. After I get out, while I let my hair dry a while, I sit with a cup of coffee. This is probably the most relaxing part of my day. I can check Facebook and see what's going with all my friends on at the Ark. The house is quiet, just me and my cat, Bud, are awake. I usually have about 20 minutes or so of this peace before I have to get ready.

Challenge Day 3
Something with which you struggle.
Oh wow, this is an easy one and hard at the same time. I really don't know how to explain struggling with the basic essence of your being. Take something that you have known, or thought you knew all your life, and turn it upside down. Even though it has always been there in the shadows, there's the tendancy to deny and cover it up, hoping it will go away, but it never does. So the only option is to embrace it and make the best of it.

Challenge Day 2
Something you regret not having done last year.
Most of what I regret has to do with hurting people close to me. Not intentionally. I know that I had no choice, but it is still difficult to deal with. I never wanted to hurt anyone, but if I hadn't not made some very tough decisions for myself, I don't think that I would have made it much longer. Now it's time to pick up the pieces and salvage what I can.

Daily Blog Challenge Day 1
Ok, so it's time for another challenge. I'm getting in a few days late on this one, so I will try to post 3 of them today.
#1 Something you are looking forward to this year.
Even though we are almost 3/4 of the way through the year, I have lots to look forward to. First of all is my doctor's appointment this Thursday. I'm hoping he will be able to prescibe what I need to start to correct a long term "defect" of sorts. Many changes are coming later this year. It can be very upsetting and scary, but it's time for a new start. For me, life literally begins at 40! So many new oppertunities are out there for me to grasp.

Wacky Wednesday
It is Wednesday, and is definitely wacky. Everyday of my life lately is wacky, lol. Of course what I consider wacky may be tsrange and offensive to some, but that's their tough luck. I have my life to live, not anyone else's. Not that I don't care about anyone, I really, really do. But if I don't live for me, then it's not really a life. The next big step is in September. :)
Other wackiness is how crazy it is at work. I have so much to do. They are letting work a few hours over, but it's still hard to keep up. But I'm really not complaining, it beats not having much work or no job at all.

Beginning
The big changes are beginning. Most are extremely good, and some will be good in the long run. I think most of my friends will remain true to me, but I know some won't and that's ok. Their choice, their loss.
Sunday Ride
Allen came by to pick me up at 8 this morning. We went to Davy's house and left from there for a long road ride. After a few great climbs, one up a super cool secret road, I realized that my rear brake pads were so worn that the metal bracket was hitting the wheel. I ended up heading home and only got in 25 miles. I hope they have a great ride. I will definitely be getting new brake pads soon.
