I spent the day today as a couch potato.  Yesterday wore me out.  My legs and shoulders are sore and it’s tough getting up and down.  I’m not complaining mind you, it’s just been a while since I’ve been this sore.

This past week was a slim week on the bicycle and more on the treadmill. I only biked 47 miles and yet I’ve walked about 10 miles on the treadmill.  Next week I have a lot of preparation to do to get ready for a trip with my twin daughters so my bike riding will put on hold.  Therefore, I’m thinking about putting my bike in the shop for some preventive maintenance and maybe some new tape on my handlebar. The tape used to be white but they have turned to a gray color with all the dirt and grime from changing flat tires with no gloves on.  I’m thinking about going to a red color. Maybe red won’t show the dirt as much.

It seems lately that all I’m doing is waiting on Friday to get here only to find that my weekends are filled with me doing things for other people.  I guess I’ve been doing it for so long I can’t say no.  I have a photo shoot tomorrow evening and a meeting on Sunday afternoon and I just received a phone call from my mom wanting us to join them and my rest of my family for a weenie roast for my Autistic nephew.

My twin daughters will be volunteering at a Botanical club tomorrow morning and my wife will be taking them to the event while I hope to get in a bike ride before I have to leave for my meeting.  My son, who is on his way home tonight from college, will be leaving sometime tomorrow afternoon going back to college.  He’s only coming home to retrieve a suit that we had cleaned for him.

It’s been raining off and on here all day today.  I was able to get in 15 miles this evening after I ate supper.  I can’t wait until the days get a little longer so I can get my full 20 miles in.  I’m planning on doing at least 23 to 25 miles and I’m hoping to attach my GoPro so I can film some of the more exciting parts of my ride.

Have a great weekend everyone!

365 Day Photo Challenge, Alabama, Blazer, Campus Life, College, daughters, Photo, Photography, Twins, UAB

This morning I was honored to take my twin daughters to college day at UAB, University of Alabama Birmingham. We toured the campus, on foot, and went into places I’ve never been before.  I’ve lived here all my my life and I thought I knew the place.  I guess I was wrong.  It’s real nice and I learned a lot.  This also gave my daughters a chance to check out the campus, the dining area as well as some of the dorms.  I’m not sure what my daughters really thought of the place.  I think they have their thoughts of going someplace where they can experience their freedom and not have to commute from home on a daily bases.  Overall, it’s a nice campus with plenty of activities for the kids to do to unwind after a hard day of studying.

After we all got home we all crashed.  After a late night last night we all deserved a nap.

My name is Tim.  I am a 50 yr old with a wife and three kids.  I have one son, Jacob, who is currently a Sophomore at Alabama and plays the Baritone in the Million Dollar Band.  I also have twin daughters, Jessica and Courtney, who just turned 16 earlier this month.

I am a Type two Diabetic and over weight,  My problem is that I love to eat.  Especially things that aren’t good for me.  I’ve had a weight problem since before I got married and it’s been a loosing battle ever since.

This blog will be about everything that’s going on in my life.  I’m tired of boring everyone on my Facebook page about it so I’m going to post everything on here so people who want to read about my boring life can.  

Just a little more about me.  I’m a scout leader in my local scout troop and I love to cook in Dutch Ovens so you may see some posts on here on those subjects as well.  

I’m not a shy person so if you want to know something just ask.
