I’m doing woodworking, and mowing today. The wife is celebrating though. Save me a piece of apple pie.

"TT Bike Thursdays" but outdoor version. Typically I'll ride for 30' and 15' at high z2 and z3, respectively, for a light day. Today I kicked that up a notch for each one.
Cut the second one a few minutes short, too windy and too much activity. Had to leave aero a few times so I could "square off" and cover the brakes. Tourists, man.
TBH it was pretty fatiguing to my upper body compared to the trainer, riding these things out in the wild is hard! Glad I got some real world practice in. I might race our local TT series a couple times next year.

I feel so fat. We hosted as per the usual, so we had 15 pound turkey, a whole ham all the sides, Italian Father In Law brought this amazing pasta dish, don’t even know what it was, Italian Bro in Law brought a cheese board that was so long it required 2 people. Don’t even get me started on desert. I feel fat.

I wish I'd hit the Total Wino for some 105-level or better vino.

Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, stuffing, crescent rolls, apple pie, pecan pie and coffee to wash it down. Napping ensued.

After a bad week or so, got all the puzzles this morning. Hopefully it portends a good weekend.

Not weighing myself until we're back from the Texas trip. Too much randomness in the diet.
