...I’ve been tempted to whine, but I’ve kept my mouth shut instead. It left a hole in the air, but it left that hole open for something more positive.

Today is a test...

The road bike my friend is lending me won’t be available this week- have to wait one more week… grrrr… (can’t afford the 2 tanks of gas to drive up to her house and back to fetch it).
—Not necessarily her fault and she’s not doing it to spite me. Scheduling mix-up and she can’t come down. C’est la vie.
The pool is closed this week.
—It’s opening was TBA, and they decided CLOSED. It’s open for one last weekend. I just need to find some other way to exercise. Zen breaths.
Obnoxious ex-bf is delaying sending the bike frame. I’m annoyed because he’s relying on his friend R., who doesn’t follow through on things. Lately, though, R. has been reliable. Ex does not tell me this, so I, thinking R. is a feckless twit, get annoyed. Ex calls me insane. After prodding he admits that R. is not so bad, which makes me mad because I would not have been so angry if I’d known.
Yoga time!
