Flats

We went on a long bike ride this weekend--was supposed to be 30 miles but we cut out for home a bit early due to a flat tire on my bike. Still we rode over 25 miles. I was totally wiped out, which felt ridiculous. I keep promising myself to bike more, walk more, lift weights more. Fits and starts as usual. This is I think the 3rd flat in as many months and I'm super annoyed. I am probably going to get at least one new tire, since that might be the problem. I really need to look at the tire more closely and see the state of the tread. I've put over 3,000 miles on these tires, but I have other bikes where my tires lasted way longer! Anyway, for now, I'll have to find the pointy thing that caused the flat before I ride again. Or maybe I'll take my acoustic bike out for a spin...

Work, sigh, still demotivated. I am getting busy again, which usually bodes well for motivation. Keeping busy is generally very good for me. I wish there were someway to break out of my old patterns and habits. Or replace the old ones with new good ones? Better ones? Am I so bad? Clearly, self-kindness is very low at the moment. 

I even feel like I'm failing at the blog. No one is reading, I'm already inconsistent, and it's really dull. Go me!

Grateful for: time to reflect.
