I started the day being lazy, not really wanting to get out of bed. Finally, around 8:30, I dragged myself out. I didn’t do much until I decided to go for a bike ride. By that point, it was 9:30, and traffic was already beginning to increase. I did my usual trip around the mall and then back towards the park and stopped by Braum’s for a sausage egg and cheese biscuit. I hadn’t had one of those in a while. It wasn’t half bad. I finished my hour bike ride and got 8 miles in.

When I got home, I decided I was going to put the new doorstop on the Xterra. I watched a quick YouTube video on removing the driver side door panel and got to work. I managed to get it all done in about an hour, and I had all the tools that I needed to get the job done. Including extra nuts because they either redesigned the part or gave me the wrong one, but it fit. I just needed two Nuts to tighten it down. It felt really good once it was all back together and fixed. I didn’t break anything while fixing it, which seems to be a novelty. So, while I had good news on that front, I looked under the truck, and there’s a puddle of some kind of fluid. Now, it hasn’t really been driven in about 6 months, so I have no idea what’s going on with that. I’ll put it on the list of things that need to be fixed.

We went to Mom’s around 1:00, the traffic was horrendous. I took 121 in, and they have it down to one lane getting on 35. Somebody really needs to be sued. So we got there around 1:30, we had ribs, baked beans, potato salad, and corn on the cob. It was so delicious, a wonderful lunch for Mother’s Day. The ribs were cooked last November wrapped in parchment paper and then foil and then vacuum sealed and froze. That is an excellent way to store ribs.

After we got home, Sandy said she needed to go to Kohl’s. I figured I would tag along because I wanted to look at suits since all of mine no longer fit me. I kind of wanted one for the wedding we’re going to in a couple of weeks. I found what I was looking for and picked up a blue two-piece suit. My jacket size is 44 regular, and my pants are 36 x 32. When I got home, I ordered one in Gray and another in Black. So now I have a black suit, a gray suit, and a blue suit. That should actually wrap up my suit buying for this life. I’ll pick which one I look best in and that’s the one I’ll be displayed in when I’m dead:) all told I dropped about $600 in suits today, and I’m happy I did it. I’m too old to get by on just my looks. I need to dress myself properly now. I’m just super happy that I can do so and not think twice about it. My life is good!
