    It's so windy here, I just couldn't face getting on my bike. So I worked in the garden for several hours, sifting compost (good upper body workout), cleaning up leaves, mulching around the BLOOMING crocus ! It was a mental refresher. I think if I had gone out for a ride, I would have been uncomfortable with all the wind. I'm glad I didn't ride today.

    Thank you all for your encouraging words. I don't feel so alone now.

    Looking back, I noticed that I felt the no-cycling urge the week of impending severe weather. I know this probably sounds corny, but I really think that as an artist I am much more sensitive to things subconsciously and it manifests itself in resistance to creativity, and in this case, cycling. 2 days prior to all the tornados, I could not focus to paint if my life depended on it. Instead I was getting our emergency gear together and focusing on the safety of my furkids. Today I found out that a funnel cloud had actually been spotted on our street and had passed over our house. I am so very thankful that we, and our neighbors, are safe.

    Sundial, I think that makes a lot of sense.

    L-Tyrosine

    Maybe your feeling depressed. This natural mood lifter may be an amino acid that will give you a lift too.
    L-Tyrosine is great for that.

    It won't be long before the peeper frogs come out.

    I feel very productive today.
