"Mental or Physical"

I really don't know today. Generally I can tell whether I'm just being lazy or whether my body is genuinely fatiqued. I went downtown to ride but I wasn't in the spirit of it mentally, and it seemed like my legs just didn't have any zip. I ended up riding 30k at quite a slow pace and then called it a day. Oh well, whatever the problem is I'm sure the energy will be there another day.

Of a more worrisome nature is the feeling in my left knee. It really started acting up again during my hills yesterday and wasn't any better on the bike today. I'm going to have to monitor it very closely. I will start trying to ice it regularly and also start taking ibuprofen 2 or times a day to try to manage the inflammation.....ok Cory?

Fortunately I managed to get to the pool today(thanks Teresa) and I had a decent if not long swim. I swam 1000 metres in 22 minutes and 10 seconds. my previous best at this distance was 22' 45" so I continue to improve slowly.

And thats about if for today with the exception of a few miscellaneous items.

1) I will give you that I have a nice friendly smile and a full head of hair but I'm not fooling myself about the rest of my head. Regardless, thanks you all for your kind words.

2) Cory....I would start panicking if I were you! Now old John is talking sweet to you as well??

3) Roo is out of town and I have Kylie over for the night so I don't give a shit about nothing!!!...double negative and all

4) I had a special moment on the phone tonite when a lady called looking for Dave? It was with genuine, intense gratification that I was able to say...Dave? Dave's not here!

5)I went to the funeral home tonite and met Denis, who is the same sex partner of the deceased. I found it overwhelmingly sad that the partner and the mother didn't even know each other. Someone had to die for them to get acquainted.

I wish to dedicate day 85 to Denis...who must be very sad.

And I do hope my problem is mental because...
