Sorry to hear about your loss and I do understand. I lost my younger brother on May 15 of a heart attack at 45 years old. Then on Monday of this week my Mom's older sister passed away. It has been a rough month for sure and luckily I have had no appetite instead of the usual stress eating.I lost my mom a week ago. I'm trying to keep from gaining too much, but whatever it is, it is. I'll pick up the pieces later.

I willOK, regaining control of my own self again. It wasn't catastrophic. Still in the 110's this morning. Back in full Keto mode. Just had to scratch that itch and now we're on down the road again.
I will have a piece of my lady friends pumpkin pie next Thanksgiving. She somehow makes the best.I had ONE piece of home picked, home made, apple pie tonight. Cut the sugar 1/2 and 1/2 Splenda. You couldn't even guess it. Home made crust. It was awesome. I don't even want to see my blood sugar. I'll look in the morning.
I might want to get another bike, but they are always too big for me. I have very short legs, and I have never had a bike that would let me put my feet on the ground. I always had to lean way to the side to put one foot on the ground. I've tried the smallest frame of adult bikes. I may have to get a kids' bike.I got on my outside bicycle yesterday for the first time since I got a cortisone shot in my knee! Rode about 5-6 miles or so. Took it pretty easy on everything. It has been a while.
Last time I rode it I finally blew out an old tire on it and fixed that. New tire, tube, armor liner. Got it all set for the next day and my knee just felt like it blew up walking down the porch steps. Never even rode down the driveway on the new tire.
All seems pretty good, just a little weak. Read to rip a good ride today and I get up and its raining. Back on the indoor bike.
You are buying the wrong bikes at the wrong places.I might want to get another bike, but they are always too big for me.

Thanks. I did go to a Schwinn shop (not the Walmart Schwinns) and they set me up with one, but I never felt comfortable riding it. Ended up selling it. We have a Trek store nearby. I might check with them.You are buying the wrong bikes at the wrong places.
Bloomington Bike and Bean, is the closest to me for a real bicycle shop with high quality brands. I'm no expert but I know when the spokes break and start falling out after a few months, that cheap Walmart bike was no bargain. I KEEP my junk ones laying around to remind of that. Even worse, they all break in different ways so they can't be all put together in to one good one.
My best advice is to look for GOOD bicycle brands and then find the nearest place to you that sells them. Go in and tell them what you want THE BIKE TO DO. NOT what bike you want and then ask them to set one up to fit you and go for a ride around the block WITH YOU. It is the absolute minimum you should expect a GOOD bike shop to do IF YOU DECIDE to buy a bike from them. THEY WANT TO MAKE THAT BIKE FIT YOU LIKE A GLOVE, EVERYTHING EXACTLY RIGHT! Because it makes a world of difference for you riding it. If you get on one and can't tell the difference from an off the rack cheap Walmart bike right away you don't want that bike OR THAT BIKE SHOP selling you ANYTHING or setting it up for you.
It costs a little more than just throwing darts at the five cheapest bikes on the internet but for ME it has been WELL worth it.
Don't buy anything until it feels and rides right on insist on money back guarantee. Any good bike shop includes the set up with the cost of the bike and all the making sure EVERYTHING about it fits and suits you.Thanks.
