Day 1! About 85 miles with 2,500m of gain, two new passes, lots of great views, some rain, some sunshine, some teeth chattering, time with my favourite people, pushing myself. Made it to Italy and had a lovely evening. Still very tired now but it's time for day 2 :P

Saturday morning at 10am I was stomping around like "the weekend is half over and I haven't gotten anything done yet!" Clearly I was feeling more than a little stressed about maximizing the weekend, lol.
Saturday morning I baked a loaf that I'd mixed up Thursday night and shaped and popped in the fridge Friday morning. It's got fish peppers from my garden and cheddar cheese in it - a nod to a jalapeno cheddar loaf, but I didn't have jalapenos. The fish peppers are SPICY. Like, I cut a slice of bread and my hands tingle and then I scrub them with soap and then if I rub my eyes it still burns them. Soooo, maybe not the best? If you've ever wanted to sweat and cough from eating spicy bread, I have succeeded in making the spicy loaf for you.
Saturday night I made marry me chicken gnocchi soup. I'd say it's medium. Good enough to happily eat the leftovers of, but probably not so tasty that I'll make it again. Well, I say that, but Ken has been saying, "Next time I think I'd (insert small change here)" so I think he actually really enjoyed it and might want it again. Anyway, it's gone well with a slice of toast on the side.
We had a big finances talk Saturday, too, since even over 2 years of marriage the only joint finances we have is a credit card I got where he's an authorized user so we can have a "joint" card. We're going to be moving to a fully (or at least mostly) joined approach (with some separate savings and investments) so we are getting ready for that.
Sunday morning I was in a MUCH better mood and we went for an "easy" gravel ride where I cried on the side of the road and nearly puked in someone's driveway because it was such a challenge. I haven't been riding much, and I haven't been challenging myself much either. Combine that with having covid a few weeks ago, and it was a shock to me how hard this ride was. Ken signed us up for a "mini" 25-mile gravel ride in about 6 weeks, so I have some work to do to make that an enjoyable experience and not a sufferfest. I've done a 40-mile gravel grinder ride a few times and loved it - it just makes me really sad to be in such worse shape now than I used to be. At least I genuinely enjoy cycling so the climb back to where I want to be is something I can have fun with.
After the ride we got bagel sandwiches in the town near the start/stop point. Mine had sausage, egg, cheese, and apple butter. I'm a sweet+savory gal so it was AMAZING. And then we showered and I napped on the living room floor for half a football game. ("Ken, can you put on the football channel so I can take a nap?") After dinner I made a blueberry muffin recipe that uses sourdough discard. I'd been meaning to make them for ages and finally had discard in the fridge and time to whip them up. It said to divide into 12 muffins... I am not sure that was the right move. But they taste great.
It's going to be a busy week. Plenty of work, a vet neurologist appointment for Theo, both individual and couple's therapy on Tuesday (I hate double-therapy days ugh), and trying to stay up late and push hard to finish editing this book so I can publish it before the end of the month. This weekend we want to bike again, and I want to do some training stationary bike workouts during the week, and we also both need to make sure we have clothes (or, more likely, get some clothes) for the two October weddings we have coming up. So I am Stressed but it'll be a good time if I can manage to enjoy myself through all the busy. And people add kids on top of this??? Howwww???

Truly did forget how much I like cycling. I go ham over the gamification of my fitness stats the way people go ham over normal video games
#which is two say I got TWO PRs (high scores) during my#damn I can’t call it a long run#my long ride? I guess#for my hourly mileage by a half mile each time#like bro I rode INDOORS in the gym for 3.5 hours and at no point was I ever bored#I don’t have a bike but I’m going to buy one when I get home#I rode 56 miles in the fucking gym#I feel like this is not an accurate reflection of my abilities unless I had a reallyyyyyyyy sleek fuckin road bike#then maybe#but I’ll probably get a gravel bike for the versatility

Heartbreaking: Local Punk walks into thrift shop so confident he’ll find the perfect base for their battle jacket. Finds absolutely nothing and half of it is just kids clothes instead.
(it’s me I’m the local punk. I’m devastated)
#not writeblr#just ranting here don’t mind me#I was SO confident idek why 😭 I was like “oh fuck yeah they should have like a basic black denim jacket that’s so simple it’ll be great”#A) it was a forty minute bus ride and THEN I had to walk on a bunch of fucking uneven gravel because there were no sidewalks to go there#B) I alert everyone in the store (3 people literally which somehow makes it worse) of my presence by hitting my foot on steel accidentally#C) i spent like the next thirty minutes hiding away from the register lady ‘cause I was afraid she’d see me fumbling around like an idiot#(Idk I was just browsing casually but I was really self-conscious)#And D) I was sweating bullets the entire time#Lovely#Next time I go thrifting I need to drag my friend with me I’m too stupid to do this shit alone
