I’m working to get back on track now. It’s great to be riding again; but it will take a while before I’m really normal again.

Today I rode the hybrid to the salvage store. HOORAY!! First time since surgery! I didn’t take the trailer, because I don’t think I’m ready for hauling yet; and I thought right. My hand was flaring up before I got back home; and my legs are rather stiff. And after only ten miles!

The trip was worth it, though. I was out of canned chicken, and I found some at the store; and I got cut-rate peppermint bark, left over from last Christmas. I don’t care if it’s a bit stale — it still tastes good enough for me!

When I’m shopping in a regular store, I skip things like Nut•rition, because it’s expensive. But at the salvage store today, I found a box of 18-1.5 oz pouches of the stuff; and for $7.99!

The grab-bag bins were empty today, which is why I got the peppermint bark. I’m always on the lookout for ride food; and this morning I found a bar called Barebells®. It would be good to take along on a ride tomorrow; if I can ride tomorrow!

It looks like tomorrow through Tuesday will be stormy; and that includes T-storms. I’ll see how things are in the morning. If I can’t go out, there’s always the the trainer! It’s a good thing I have it; because I need to get back on track!
