Tuesday morning ✌️

Cornmeal cakes made up with zucchuni and onion pieces ground up in them with Frank’s Hot Sauce for breakfast on this morning. I would ride but I am probably going to the final Guilderland Hearing on Comphrensive Plan to make the argument for stronger protections for the Albany Pine Bush and I need a way to get my bike home as it will be dark out by the time the hearing is over and I don’t want to have to wait for the bus home.

Another real nice late summer day. ☀️ Too bad I can’t ride in but I should be able to ride in Wednesday, and then up to the farmer’s market. 🍆 Already almost through the big old zucchuni I got last week. Thursday I’ll ride in too unless I decide to take Friday off to extend my weekend trip up to the Adirondacks or maybe Rensselearville. I am a bit undecided – both are competing in my mind – and I got to see how much time I left on vacation. Red did make kind of a loud clunk when I parked him on Sunday, but I don’t think it really is much worse then usual.  🛻 Need to get to store too.

Riding the local bus to work then transferring to the shuttle  kind of sucks, 🚌 but ultimately whatever. I mean I’m going to be riding it a lot more in the winter, unless I decide to start driving to work at the express bus is no more. 📖 I figure I can read on the bus on way in so it’s not totally wasted time though I like the exercise. If I didn’t have the Pine Bush thing tonight, and it was too bad weather for riding, the wasted time at least during the transfer Ic would use for walking. 👣 Still it’s a bit of walk now for the transfer, so I get some steps in then plus the walk to Lynn’s house to meet her after work.

I can’t believe less then a week left of wearing contact lens. 👀 I believe next week at this time I will be required to only wear glasses to make sure my eyes aren’t too irrated for the LASIK a week from Friday. I checked out whether or not I had any insurance coverage for the procedure, and the answer is no, as it’s elective surgery, but the thing is going forward I won’t have any expenses for ordinary eye care – my vision plan will cover check up every other year plus free reading glasses if I need them. 👓 Cheaters are cheap, so if I need them, I’ll need them. But at least I won’t need bifocuals. My eyes were so irrated for a while yesterday, so I’m glad contacts are done. Some of it is the dry air and the muck and muck I get in my eyes camping, but I think the weed up at camp doesn’t help with the dry eye.
