    I'm struggling a bit with motivation right now, so I'm a bit nervous about what I'm going to accomplish in April - plus, it seems all of my free time will be spent tending to my farm duties... so, I'm going with a low goal this month... 100 miles.

    You say you are having a motivation problem. However, If you hold true to form, you will only let that last for a couple days and then hit it with a vengeance. Keep that chin down so they can't hit it and charge ahead! :smile: You can do it! :+1:

    Thanks, Dean, for the encouragement. I have concluded that some of my motivation/exhaustion issues are due to a cold that I've been fighting off for days... seems like this evening, my body has given up the fight with a super runny nose. ugh. I was hoping I could fend it off until Sunday night - I have a big weekend ahead, with a lot of choir/singing stuff and family coming to town... I plan to get back on the bike on Monday, regardless of how drippy my nose might be! I WILL DO THIS.

    3.6 mile walk on this gray day. Matches my mood, back to work tonight. The first one after vacation is always the hardest. I also haven't stayed up too late in 24 days. Caffeine will be my friend.

    Adding 16 miles for 60 out of 350. It's a good start to the month. Weekends are difficult though so I'm trying to bank miles for the weekend if I can't ride.

    @SPEEDYF - You got it! I will get right on that and figure out what it should actually be. And I'll double-check to make sure all your historical miles are accounted for as well. :flowerforyou: Edited this after...all better now. :)

    @CARLSODA - Yes!! What's up with all of this crazy wind?? We're getting hammered with it here in Minnesota too! :noway:

    @CECI_O_K - Ummmm yeah...hills are not my idea of a good time either. :laugh: But they sure will make you stronger! Good for you! :)

    @KAREN - Sorry you have to go back tonight....hope it goes smoothly for you! :flowerforyou: Try not to go too crazy on the caffeine tho. I'd hate for you not to be able to sleep when you finally do get done with your shift. :)

    @DEAN - Definitely a nice start to the month! :drinker:

    If anyone else sees anything suspicious, questionable or just plain wrong with your numbers on the spreadsheet, PLEASE, let us know and we can look into it and get it corrected if need be. We promise not to take it personally. We're human and while we do try our hardest not to, we realize that we occasionally mess up. :blush:

    I don't usually go too nuts. I drink a large cup on the drive in and that's usually it. We have a 24/7 Starbucks in the hospital but I try to avoid it for both calories and money. I do bring a couple of K cups in case I need them, but most of the time the one cup is good. What I'm hoping to avoid is the "stress chocolate" I bring and usually eat too much of when I'm there. I managed to not eat any of that specific one when I was off and I'm hoping to keep that going, but it's still a crutch and I did pack a bit of it. I did recently discover oatmeal isn't as gross as I've always thought and adding a tbsp of dark chocolate chips to it makes it even better, so that's also packed for later. :smiley:
