Day 3577: It’s just like riding a bicycle

As I prepare to facilitate my first in-person therapy group at the hospital since the beginning of the pandemic, I’m thinking of the saying “it’s just like riding a bicycle.”

“It’s just like riding a bicycle” — referring to things we used to do but haven’t done in a while — is meant to be reassuring. However, for me, riding a bicycle is tiring, uncomfortable, and possibly dangerous (because I’m on anticoagulant medication). So I hope that doing my group today is NOT just like riding a bicycle.

Do you see anything that’s just like riding a bicycle in my images for today?

.

I hope that getting into work on October 17, 2022 is not just like riding a bicycle (or a bus) but rather like riding a working car, because I had to call AAA three times yesterday when my car wouldn’t start. The last AAA person, who replaced the battery but also said that my alternator is going, said “Your car has a 1000% chance of starting tomorrow.”

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “it’s just like riding a bicycle.”

If you haven’t left a comment for a while, it’s just like riding a bicycle.

Thanks to all who helped me create this “it’s-just-like-riding-a-bicycle” post, including YOU.

Day 3576: Better days

As I recover from a bad reaction to the booster shot, yesterday was a better day than Friday. I’m thinking today might be even better, especially because I’ll be ZOOMing with my son Aaron and my ex-husband Leon.

Tomorrow, I’ll be facilitating my first in-person therapy group since the beginning of the pandemic and I hope that makes it a better day for approximately eight people. I’ll have markers there in case anyone wants to make the day better by drawing a facial expression on their mask.

Do you see better days in any of these images?

What could be a better day than National Dictionary Day AND Global Cat Day?

Here’s the song I keep hearing in my head as I’m writing this “Better Days” post.

Thanks to all who make my days better and brighter, including YOU.

Day 3211: Trying to make sense of it all

If you are trying to make sense of today’s title, it’s all about the uncommon sense of the Daily Bitch Calendar.

.

I keep trying to make sense of it all, which you might sense in my images for today.

If I’m trying to make sense of it all, Global Cat Day and National Sweetest Day seem like good starting points.

Here’s “Trying to Make Sense of It All” by Human Drama …

… “Trying to Make Sense of It All” by Chris Freund …

… and “We Try to Make Sense of it All” by Hammock, an ambient/post rock band from Nashville.

Are you trying to make sense of it all?

Gratitude helps me make sense of it all, so thanks to all who have the sense to visit this blog, including YOU!
