Excuses excuses

[indysteel]

On the weekend DH and I both want to ride, I always schedule my ride first. I cannot tell you how many times I get back from my ride and DH is too busy, tired, distracted, or something unexpected has happened and he doesn't end up riding.

This is what I most need to work on. In the winter, when I'm mostly doing my own thing, I'm pretty diligent. But when cycling starts up again, I too easily let DH's agenda dictate my own. He has other hobbies and projects and he typcially has no desire or interest in spending both weekend days on the bike, but there's really little reason why I can't just ride on my own, even if it's just for a short ride. Heck, I rode alone all the time before I got married. Part of my reservation has been guilt. If he's doing work around the house, then I should, too. It's the morning hours though, when he has a tendency to just putz, that I should make better use of.

So, yeah, I guess my excuse is my husband...and that's just not a very good excuse under the circumstances.
