Only a high of 73f here today...Summer is winding down.

Just read in the paper this morning that the northeast is in for a brutal winter, which I don't doubt with the dry summer we have had. Precipitation amounts tend to average out over a year, so dry summer means wet winter :(

That's like a @manfredo level chore
I'm feeling like a slacker as i have so many chores, and so little energy!!

You give me anxiety with all that you do!
Go for it dude. You’re no slacker.

Do you like to go for walks?
Yes and I have been trying to walk more. I went for a 2 mile walk yesterday and got caught in the rain, but all good.

My legs were killer sore for 3 days from doing a few hours of work last Saturday that involved a lot of bending, so I definitely need exercise.

Do you have a local ymca close to you? Low impact stuff like swimming and stationary bike would be great for you in the winter.
Several, and we have a new one with a few saltwater pools and it's run by one of the local hospitals. Honestly I hate the crowds. But yes, some water therapy would be good!!

AND I need to lose weight again...I'm back up to 190, and I'm not sure how!! 160 is a better weight for me, so I am carrying an extra 30+ pounds around....Not good!!

I had an interesting thing yesterday. My new bike tube was delivered....It has a Presta valve instead of the "normal" Schrader valve. I'd never seen one as I have always owned cheap bikes. I asked my uncle who said "all bikes come with Presta valves." Well not at Walmart!!! :p

Sooo, not wanting to deal with it, I patched the old tube and re-assembled it, and added some fix a flat. It was a tiny pinhole. Really need to install better tires so I have another winter project!!

Which reminds me, I need to do a Walmart run!! And go for another walk!! I might even take my normal 29" pedal bike to the park and ride that...It's been a long time!!

Got 100 full knee bends done late as I was up all night with my bigger Wiener Dog. Storms! Rain and low 70s today. Incredible string of HOT since June 10. I’ll do 20 minutes aggressive walking up and down here, all up or down.

Really need to order new cables for my old Bowflex Motivator. Don’t need a Harry Reid moment.
