Mid-80’s when I posted. Temp has dropped a bit, brief mild storm blew through 10-15 mins ago. Been up and down that staircase three more times since then. Now if my damn delivery would get here I might accomplish something.
I can still get work done in the heat. I'm not that physically old yet. Still can wash cars all day on a Sunday and feel good about it when I am done. I am just starting to develop those tendencies of older to people to not want to change anything about my existence. I'll worry when I stop wanting to learn anything new. At that point the end will be near.
Today I did some laundry. After the clothes were dry I went to get them out, and realized I'd have to bend approximately 13" to get them out. I said "Eff that" and went and got a beer. It was 6:43am. Clothes are still in the dryer.
1. Stamina, used to I could kill it a couple of days in a row and be fine the next morning. Put a 1,000 miles on the bike Wednesday and Thursday and feel like I’ve been rode hard and put up wet today. 2. Vision, I can see, just have to choose what distance I wan to be able to see. No glasses or contact and I see great up to about two feet. Contacts in I can see pretty well as long as it’s over 15-20 feet away. From 2-20 requires reading glasses over my contacts... 3. Huh??? Speak up dammit.
Various parts of the body just randomly starting to hurt. Why does that hurt ? I don't remember doing anything.
As I tell the people who work for me - I don't care what you did last night or how you show up for work, but "ring the fucking bell". 90% of life is showing up.
