Friday a.m.

Good morning! I guess you know it's Friday? And it's warm outside! Today is going to be a nice little warm treat for January. All but the big piles of snow will disappear, so we are ready for the next round. Looks like the next round is going to be rain, however. That's OK too. I'm fairly easy to please when it comes to weather. One of our endurance group sayings goes something like this, "There are no bad days to train, just bad training clothes."

 

I've got a fair amount of work to do this morning, but this afternoon I hope to get out on my bike. One of my unwritten goals for the year is to ride my bike outside in every month. I'm thinking January could be the most challenging month to do that, so to get that done today would be great. We're meeting at 4 p.m. at the Mitchell Church of Christ to ride through Amish country to Orleans and back. It's right at 20 miles at an easy pace, around 15 mph ave. So far there are 3 of us.

 

Tomorrow morning is a 10 mile run, and then I am hoping to do another 20 mile ride, either around midday or in the afternoon. I'll see if there are any other riders, and then we can set a time. If I understand the forecast correctly, then we should have another dry slot in the afternoon. The temps could be around 70. Wow!

 

Yesterday I had one of those days where everything seemed to flow pretty well. My mind was clear. The thoughts came and were written down. I love it when that happens. I got a lot of my Sunday prep finished. I have just a little more to do this morning, followed by a committal service in the cemetery, followed by a meal.

 

I hope also to do a little more organizational work for our Honduras work. I will be there in a little over 3 weeks. I am really looking forward to it. I think this will be my 8th trip since 2009.

 

OK, I need to going. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a really good weekend!
