fuddled thoughts

Hello all,

While driving the forklift I have learned that if I think too much I mess up. Often times I will drive right by where ever I originally thought that I was going to go to. I am thinking of what I am going to write here. Then when I get home and all the distractions that happen natually, time gets away and there went the thoughts. That and also now is just after a really hot bath so. . . . what thougths???

I have a riding buddy named George (would you believe Schaefer). He is 15 years my senior. We do well together. There are days when he is stronger than I. there are days when I am stronger than him. Then there are days where we are both strong. Neither of us have been strong for several of the last rides. I am still in recovery mode from the broken hand. That and the daily commute is not making me stronger as I had hoped. Well, it probably is, but, if I ride for 5 days then attempt to hammer on Saturday it just doesn't happen.

Well, on Tuesday due to a early morning doctor's appointment (testosterone) We had the chance to ride once again. The temperature was .5C. Now for all of you in really cold places that isn't really cold. For us it is about as cold as it gets. When we finished the ride which was a hammer down ride due to timing to get to the Doctor I changed clothes by my car. I was steaming nicely as I cooled to not be too sweaty for the Dr. Apt. I had on an adhesive healing patch on a shoulder. I mentioned it to George that I have found these plaster's patches from the Asian Grocery to really be great for that odd painful shoulder, knee, ankle, wrist and most other pains. George says, "Well, I don't have any pains like you are describing." I called him tonight to verify what he had said. Yep, he is healthy, no aches or pains anywhere in his body. Must be nice. Let's see, hmmmm broken nose how many times? Lost count 3? 4? 5?. one of them was a crushed face, how's that for pain. Actually it doesn't hurt. Left Tib/Fib broken twice. ring and little finger broken 1 Feb 07. 30 or 40 times thrown from a horse. Fell out of trees, off of hay wagons, off the top of a semi-trailer, out of hay mows. Car crashes, motorcycle crashes, bicycle crashes. OK, so maybe I know where the pain comes from. maybe not directly but they seem to accumulate eh?

There are good days and there are days and there are really really rough days. Like in weather changes and seasonal changes are the worst.

Hmmmm what other adventures can I get into????

enough for tonight. have to order some vits.

peace
