Lost Love
Ok this isn't really a poly post. Just something that I had forgotten about. Up until last spring I was an avid bike rider. i enjoy downhill, xc, dirtjumping. Basically anything with pedals and two rubber tires and Iw ould give it a try.
Last year I fell into a funk. My passion was gone and I couldn't find my groove to want to ride anymroe. So I stopped. Every month or so I would go out for a ride and get more annoyed. With diminishing skills and my cardio getting worse, my ability to ride on trails I enjoy was quickly becoming annoying. Its beyond difficult to ride a trail you know you used to be able to destroy and not be able to ride it to that ability anymore.
Anyways this morning, SJ for some reason told me to go ride. With Pengrah not home and no one around to interfere with me getting ready, I went out. I rode trails I normally dislike. Double tracks with no real skill required and then hit single tracks. Its amazingly freeing to be out there flying around the back side of a mountain, not caring about why you "could" do but only caring about what you are doing. I feel like I found my flow again and while I had no real rhythm in my skillset anymore, it was still a blast. Besides, near the end I went onto an old single track and scared the crap out of myself a few times. Even had a healthy crash into a tree...
Oh boy how I have missed you.
On the poly side of things, everything is good. Pengrah is continuing to build her connection with Wellington. I need to spend some time trying to reconnect with Pengrah. She has been very occupied with Wellington and I feel like our connection is waning a bit. Hoping to have a date night tonight or maybe tomorrow to get some of that connection back.
Otherwise life is amazing on my end. Vacation planned and in operation. Life is good.
