New Old Things

My cardiologist is on me for exercise and I just want to be more active and maybe lose a few pounds. That would say we have a match.

Two years ago I proposed to Mary we get a set of bicycles. She nixed the idea for her. Maybe she was already feeling poorly from early, early stages of cholangiocarcinoma--who knows?

Anyway, I bought a bike last week and have been on it every other day so far. Tomorrow I am going to bike to Los Gatos farmers' market. I hope that works out as an ok thing. I can take the trail along the creek and avoid all the auto traffic.

I used to bike a bit--it is an exercise I enjoy. I plan on using the long summer evenings to get more time in and as I get my wind and stamina then head back to swimming at the club.

It has been a gorgious day! I am sitting on our front patio with the dogs and enjoying the cooler evening temperatures. Here is a case where I can really feel Mary is gone. She would have brought out a light white wine along with fruit and crackers as an appetizer before dinner. And as the temp became too cool, we'd head to the kitchen or back deck for Saturday dinner--hamburger or Adelles sausage or sloppy joes.

I guess I'll feed the dogs and fix sausage for me.
