Doctors sometimes ask me if I exercise or what I do for
exercise and I explain that I don’t do structured exercise. I use what I do around the house as
exercise. Anything extra that I add
would make it hard for me to do the things that need to be done. I’m not always sure they believe me – some
obviously do, but I even doubt myself sometimes.
Well, now I’ve started cycling and guess what? I’m having a hard time keeping up with all of
the things that I need to do. As a
result things have been piling up around here.
It’s not good to be proven right in this circumstance.
Sure, things could be much worse, but this is what I have to
deal with, doing all of the things that I couldn’t keep up with before while
also cycling as often as possible. Don’t
get me wrong, I’m really not complaining.
Seriously. It’s more like I told
you so (I told me so?).
Eventually the weather will determine what gets done, but
until then I intend to keep up the cycling and do my best to make everything
else work. I’ll take it as a
challenge/exercise in scheduling and prioritizing and figuring out how best to
manage my energy.

When we get the dog and cat to do their fair share around the house - dishes, laundry - I will share my secret and watch you bike ride into the sunset
Is that what I need to do? Definitely share the secret, and I'll do likewise if I ever figure it out.
