Two days straight,,,,
Blessed relaxing water time,,, not many miles, lots of sitting in place watching the world, THE REAL WORLD, waking up from winters slumber. Hearing the songs of birds screaming for sex (why yes Virginia, that is EXACTLY what those songs mean,,,,) catching sight of the little groups of wildflowers waking up and bursting forth,,, Seeing trees budding and blooming.
And getting some muscle activity in too,,, of course, paddling,,, had to get away from the ramp and the rudeness of loud music some insist on,,,, Time and a place, IMO, and I am one of those that “when I am listening to “X”, so are the neighbors” (rare, does happen) but when you are at a public park where people are fishing etc,,, tone it down, please. (Hell, I made a living getting loud for years,,,, kinda in my blood, but I also understand and desire the sounds of silence at times.,,,_
I did some pushing of the paddle today, yesterday not as much. No wind after almost a month and half of “Ughs!” and fighting off the Cruds,,, Could get up to speed, but no stamina. Gotta work on that and the best way is exactly what I was doing,,, push a little, rest, push a little more,,,
I have a race in April (27th) And laughingly enough, this year I am in the “senior” race class,,,,, 55 being the change year. S’alright, I know I’m gettin’ long in tooth, I feel it more and more every year,,,gonna have to start looking for those places that give discounts to us ol’folk,,,, I know some of them start at the age of 55,,,, (gotta save what I can where I can how I can,,, $’s don’t stretch like they usedta, and I am not shy about taking advantage of my age,,,,)
My mind though,,, OODDlles better than it was this AM when I posted up first. I started dropping back into that “FTW” shift and that leads to ‘mucho muy mal’ thinks. Wanna carry the good vibes into this workweek,,,, Enough trials and tribs to keep one’s world offset, without needing to add to the fray with “Poly-TIcks”, right?
Anywhoos,,, I am gonna wrap up my weekend of good with a song for y’all,,, yeah, it was written back in the late 80’s early 90’s and is kinda sorta political in nature, but it always gets me fire up and ready to rumble in the world.
(I posted the track only, since the vid was political and very liberal in esscence, from the ‘get out the voat’ age of MTV,,, Frickin’ communists fuck everything up.)
Peace, and keep on livin’
