E-Bikes

I mowed my lawns and went riding. It was cold and the air was wet. I only rode two loops and came home. Between sneezing and my nose dripping and my fingers aching and.. it was sprinkling and.. and.. that was enough riding for me today. I saw nobody while riding my brief ride today. I did see one cyclist and a couple of pedestrians in town this morning while I was mowing. It wasn't a good day to be outside.

Random Thought Thread

My oh my gosh, I have four kittens, have been accepted into the adoption center. One of the kittens is being adopted by my sister who prefers her kitten is taken care of by her long trusted vet. The other three are scheduled for their first series of shots this weekend. Next week, I'm supposed to contact them and schedule their being spayed or neutered. They are nine weeks old today. I'm anxious to get my office back but will miss the little guys and their antics.
