Twilight Gimpl Ride

November 9, 2019 (Afternoon)

Exercise Type: Bike

Weather: mid 50s, hazy

Comments:
Slept in, sort of, then got up and - momentously! - cleaned out our upstairs to put shit into our BRAND-NEW SHED!

The shed's been a project idea for over a year, since I joined the Business Networking Group and met a good handyman. The shed is along the outer (west) wall of our house, and - now that it's complete - our defacto garage. Before, all our garage-y shit -- home improvement tools, camp gear, bike stuff, camp gear, etc -- all had to go inside, and was crazily piled into our upstairs "3rd bedroom".

NO MORE!

After I spent an hour leafblowing the driveway, we moved all the shit out of that room, organized it into various categories (including thrift donation, recycling and DUMP), then packed the rest in the shed! Such a relief, as we now have that third room as an exercise space -- a place I can go early in the AM and do body work without waking CA, before I go to work.

Didn't finish that 'til 3:30. We "celebrated" with OML's at Hideaway, then came home to bike.

The ankle went from:

* last night: HORRIBLE
* this morning: HORRIBLE
* mid-morning: pretty bad
* afternoon: not terrible
* late alfternoon: pretty good

The bike helped, too. Rode easy-medium together on the Gimpl loop, both of us tired from the workout and weights.

PM:
* wrote my iRF column
* beers
* late dinner at Wheel Apizza Pub

Good day. Happy to have a "domestic day"!
