Go With the Flow.

The planned night gravel ride went off at 8:15 last night as planned.  However, not planned, I didn't go with.  Without boring you too much with the details I will be short in my description of the events leading to my not riding.  The kids, minus Harper, have been staying at my folks the past two days (one with me in a tent) with their cousins.  Jen left, with Harper, to Florida for work early yesterday morning.  I wasn't to see the kids till Sunday afternoon.  Brinna got a little homesick, etc.  Turns out she was reading a scary book and like me, it got to her.  Skipped the ride and hung out at my folks with the kids eating popcorn and ice cream. 
Cool thing is I'm cool...mentally not Fanzee cool!  Didn't freak about not riding at all.  Gotta say I love my kids!  Trying to be there more instead of always riding and/or working.  So far, so good.

Up early to get a couple hour spin in before work this morning, but started to have some anxiety about all the repairs.  Heading into work instead.  I work till noon so have the afternoon to ride.  Was planning on mowing, but that can wait!  I mean the grass hasn't gone to seeding mode yet.


Have a good one, looks like the rain is done for a bit!

Out.
