TRY TRY AGAIN

 6 miles with a average speed of 18 miles an hour.  Told myself to do an easy ride.  Did I listen to myself no.   Was the majority of the hurt gone, of course not.   Was I clear headed and able to breath better yes.    And yes both Fibromyalgia and CVI can cause breathing disruptions.  


Let's say I had just the Fibromyalgia alone, that's it.   I would be able to ride a road bike! 

Because Dancing, running and being athletic with Fibromyalgia is recommended for health.  

Now Let's say I just have Chronic Venus Insufficient by itself.  I wouldn't be able to ride a road bike, run, ECT.  I would be bog down.   

Now when you sandwich Fibromyalgia, CVI,  lymphedema, Bernard Roth Syndrome.  Nerve entrapment.  +.  I want to get off the ride already.  But I can't.  I just have pick my self up and get on with the show.

11 MILES & FROLICING WITH HORNED LARKS

 Yesterday was amazing,  I needed to get out so so bad and as soon as I got started I knew it was going to be a good day.   Because the endorphins were doing there job.   

A hold gaggle of Horned larks.  I accidentally thought they were quail.  And as fast as I came up on them, I thought they would have flown away. Nope look at my and continued pecking.  I counted 5 then was in awe as 15 took off.  Whhhhaaa.   

These guys blend in so well.  When the sit down, they literally disappear.  


The flower and riders are out.

IN A NUT SHELL & 3 MILES

 If you new and you don't know.  I've been diagnosed with two chronic illness.  Chronic Venus Insufficient and Fibromyalgia.   It make functioning very difficult.  I have had Fibromyalgia since childhood, all though years I though I was crazy.  And I was was young so it was bothersome, but no real impact. However it does explain why I could fall asleep anywhere and sleep for 11 to 12 hour straight.  Or why sometime my body would be a furnace, or ice cold.  But it was annoying and being young I could deal with it like the CVI.  

Fast-forward to April 2022 and I'm 50.  And all hell breaks lose.  Back surgery and the Fibromyalgia and CVI are through the fucking roof with extra things.   

 What I have is call a dynamic disability.   My pain fluctuates and there absolutely no rhyme or reason to it.  There is no planning around this.  It wake up and either go oh shit look like the beds going to be my friend.  To getting a hour or two of remaining up right, before my body starts to say 👋 hey even though you didn't do jack shit, time to go back to bed.    The majority of my days is painful 😖.  

But I'm stubborn.  Laying in bed all day is wearing on me.  So by doing a ride on the stationary bike it make me feel accomplished.  Even though I might look like death warmed over.  Looks.....I don't give a fuck what I look like.  What you see is what you get with all my sassyness.  

So just 3 miles on ZWIFT.
