Monday Starts a New Week

As Usual, a Very Short Track Today
All last week we skipped riding the people-powered 3-wheel tandem since we were in the midst of ripping out 17-year-old carpeting and installing laminate snap-together flooring to replace it.  We were getting frantic about getting done with the project since we had the whole house looking like a hoarders' paradise, trying to move furniture etc. into one corner while ripping up and redoing the floor, then trying to put stuff back in decent order.  Dining Room, Living Room, and Master Bedroom all got the treatment.  Now we ARE done, at least with the flooring.  Now to finish odd spots of missed paint on the walls.
We knew, however, that we HAVE to get back into our exercise routine.  Pedaling along helps exercise and strengthen Jacque's trick knees and it of course helps ME burn off blood sugar and keep the metabolism going, what with the diabetes and all.  We fully realize it is all too easy to lose enthusiasm for any form of exercise and we want to stay "enthused" and motivated for cycling as long as we're physically able.
Anyway, we did the usual first-ride-in-a-while route today, 3 miles out, 3 miles back, and since it rained yesterday (and later today) it was not as hot as usual.  Jacque's trick knee started feeling better within a few hundred feet of riding.  That's good stuff.
