My lungs, after that horrid flu, finally feel normal again. Pretty good, even. I am super super thankful for this because I think it could have been a lot worse. I have resumed work, music lessons and most of my daily activities and everything feels normal. But I haven’t done anything active yet. I haven’t been hiking or climbing, and I haven’t ridden my bike to work in weeks. Since I feel so good, I think it’s time for me to try it out, but I have a tiny feeling that something horrible will happen if I do.  

However, that’s just being plain lazy and wussy. I mean really, just get up and do something already! And that’s why I’m going for a bike ride right now. I’m thinking down by the river, it will be nice and shady. It is the perfect summer day today, warm and sunny but not too hot if you know what I mean. My dad’s rebuilding our deck in the backyard and my mom is gardening. Absolutely glorious!
