Google health giving me the "I know you know you shouldn't have done this"

Sometimes she makes things way harder than they need to be.

Apparent posting about riding an e-bike attracted some unproductive comments. Thanks for the free engagement!

"If your legs are sore from riding a e-bike then you desperately need to exercise. Sounds like some s**t you’d hear on “my 600lb life” "

Here is a picture of me with my first bike.

Biked 16 miles today on my e-bike. My previous record was 6 so this was a big step. My legs are sore but I feel good.

I dropped my car at the brake place to get them fixed and oil change. Kiddo and I biked home after that. I returned a few hours later to pick it up. :)

Bike riding is hitting the right ADHD spot for me. I'm constantly pushing myself to go faster or take longer trips to somewhere new etc. Especially for urban outdoor stuff it really lets me cruise through the boring parts.

ETA: Since this post is being seen by a lot of e-bike haters who think I'm lazy.... I live at 5500-6000 feet, this set of rides had a total of 1500 feet elevation gain from all the ups and downs and ups again. Thanks for the engagement!!!

Colorado is green right now!!!! Rode 5 miles on my bike today. Tomorrow it will be 6 miles as I have to drop my car off because it's making a horrible squealing sound. (Most likely the brake pads are down to the squealers).

Swapped out earings for the first time today. Might have been a week or 2 too soon.

The difference between family staying at our house and relatives caught me off guard.

Typically when relatives leave I have a sense of accomplishment. House is clean, everyone is ok, and now it's peaceful and empty and safe again. Like going to the dentist. You don't want to go but afterwards you are done! You did it!

One of my found family stayed with us for a week. When they left I felt .. sad .. depressed and longing for their return.

It was also just easier. Our house never got as clean as it does for relatives. I wasn't walking on tiptoes, etc.

I'm so glad I'm finding and growing my family.
