Tuesday Tidbits

• I'm feeling stressed, like I'm always trying to fit 20lbs of Sh*t into a 5lb bag. 
  
  
• I was volunteered to be club sectretary for the ski club I joined last year by the President.  I'm behind in getting the minutes of the April meeting to him, plus the spot where they hold their meetings is already booked for the May date that the club chose for their next meeting.  Now I have to find a venue where we can hold the meeting.... do the minutes, address the action items, no biggie right?  argggghhhhh!
  
  
• Taxes are due on Friday, I'm almost done getting all my information organised and if in fact if I had any organisational skills (i.e. sectreterial, see the above note), I'd file all my bills after paying them monthly instead of trying to file them four days before the tax due date.  Being on contract sometimes bites...
  
  
• I have to start back running on a more committed basis, I have an 8K Kilt run at the end of June and truth be told I haven't put on  my kicks in well over a month.
  
  
• I'm feeling a little more confident about the 100K cycle tour I'm riding at the beginning of June, riding down to Kingston shouldn't be a problem, however, cycling the 100K back on the Sunday could prove to be interesting!!
  
  

Lifes' fun if you don't weaken,

Ruby is going for maintenance

Since I'm sidelined (okay, enough about that), I'm taking the Norco in for a spring tune-up. The bottom bracket and seat need adjusting and for some reason I can't seem to get the saddle post to move. A friend of mine applied heat, a wrench and some strong muscle but nary a budge.

I called the place where the bike will be tuned up and they said to get it in right away because they are already booked up until April 17th. Once I get the bike back I'll either be ready to hit the roads or I'll be on the trainer for awhile.

One thing is for sure, I'll have to get back to the gym to work on keeping my fitness level up and as some one told me this morning. Watch what your are eating "you don't want to get any heavier". Yea, thanks for that....

As my friend Ter mentioned on my last post, that I sound a little "crankeeeee", yup I do don't I? Sorry about that, I don't mean to be, but the frustration level is a little high right now.

Tomorrow will be my first Sunday in a long time that I don't have to get up at the buttcrack of dawn to go for a run. The troops will be running another 29K tomorrow on one of my most favourite trails....maybe I'll get out the mountain bike and meet them. Oh, right I can't....well, I'll stop by to see how they are doing after their run....ya, that would work.

Okay, well I'm off to load up Ruby and send her off to her doctor....

Have a GREAT weekend everyone and good luck to those who are racing.

Life's fun if you don't weaken,
