Trike Update

Thu., July 17, 11:11 AM

For two days in a row, I’ve done some decent trike riding. Haven’t done that since last week. Between wet weather and very hot weather, sometimes I just have to do what I can. Tuesday was a “wash.” I used the productive hours of the morning to clean Husband’s room and change his sheets, and by the time I was done, it was high noon. Being neither a mad dog nor an Englishman (see Noel Coward), I opted not to ride. (Keep in mind, however, that bed making is strenuous exercise.)

Yesterday, however, I went out while it was still coolish. I didn’t do quite twenty minutes, but I was going fast enough to have done 3.8 miles.

Today I had an agenda. I started out about twenty minutes before the bookmobile was due — with books in the basket. When I got back to our street, the bookmobile wasn’t there yet, so I went around the block again. I did better than four miles today, I’m sure. I have a couple of errands to do when U.D. comes out of work, and I will be able to say I’ve gotten my exercise for the week.

Now where’s the ice cream?
