I rode the Peloton twice again today.
I took all my vitamins and drank 1 tbsp of EVOO just like every other day.
Because really nothing else matters but my health. I have a lot to do
each day, and I know in order to get everything done, I need to stay as energetic and healthy as possible.
I do this every day because I do not have health insurance and I know that I need tests but I cannot afford them
so I just do this until I can afford health insurance.
While behind the wheel yesterday, my mind couldn’t help but drift towards the upcoming 30 minutes on the Peloton awaiting me when I returned home in the night or afternoon. It may seem a bit unusual to be preoccupied with thoughts of exercise while driving, but for me, it signifies much more than just a workout. It’s a tangible reminder that Ruby and I have successfully completed another day of driving.
A quick check last night revealed that Ruby, my trusty car, has accumulated an impressive 532 thousand miles. To maintain this level of performance, I diligently record every detail in a comprehensive maintenance log, accessible at this link. This log includes a thorough account of every maintenance task, from regular oil changes, which I religiously perform every two weeks, to any other service that ensures Ruby’s optimal functioning.
Given the high mileage, I’ve adopted a daily oil-check routine. A couple of times a week, I find myself adding 1/8th of a quart of oil to keep things running smoothly. Initially purchasing oil from WaWa at $10.99 per quart plus tax, I’ve since switched to a more cost-effective option. I now order Valvoline Max Life high mileage Oil, the exact oil used in my bi-weekly changes, from Amazon. For just $23.50, I receive 5 quarts, shipped right to my doorstep.
As I embark on another day of driving this Sunday, my hope is for a more favorable experience compared to yesterday. Regardless of how the day unfolds on the road, one thing remains constant—I am prioritizing my health. The anticipation of the Peloton session and the commitment to maintaining Ruby’s health through meticulous care and affordable choices underscore the significance of overall well-being.
In the grand scheme of things, whether the roads are smooth or challenging, my health takes precedence. The ability to find balance between a demanding driving routine and personal health is a testament to the importance of holistic well-being. Here’s to a healthier and hopefully more rewarding driving day on this Sunday, reinforcing that, above all, health is what truly matters.
