  1. Nice to meet you "HERE FOR IT" I'm Dad
  2. Frame of reference for the win. Look at it instead as an excuse to miss those things. Sometimes I will take a break from adding tons of garlic to my dishes so I can appreciate it when I add it back. Sometimes you need to take a break from being so awesome to realize just how awesome you have been.
  3. You are getting very sleepy... When you wake up, you will keep posting Tank level food updates...
  4. Hmmm... maybe finding some simple core exercises you can do in a chair or lying down in place of the walking might help. Even if it is five minutes of going into/out of plank at whatever level you are at might be worthwhile. I've also found that most of my back/leg/foot issues feel much better if I focus on hip mobility stretches and exercises. I like the gmb.io hip mobility routine: https://gmb.io/hip-mobility/ and find just doing it in the morning when I wake up feeling weird in my feet/legs/back makes the whole rest of the day better. Following along to see if I can be nudged to try NaNoWriMo again.
  5. Burnout is something I am somehow managing to avoid. I just got on cholesterol medication earlier this year... I hate that I have to take it, but want to not have to put my kids through a funeral sooner than needed. I love your simple goals, makes it easy to keep strong.
  6. Yay Badges! I am a sucker for collectibles and streaks and whatnot
  7. I can be good at consistency sometimes
  8. "marinating in cortisol" is such an appropriate turn of phrase! I am so stealing that for everyday use.
  9. Lyme disease is no joke. So glad you have a clear diagnosis and treatment, so happy for you to feel better.
  10. "Sugar Steps" is the name of my psychedelic electronic folk rock band
  11. Must include "Didn't have a spotter for Bench Press" and "Swerved to not hit a skunk and went over cliff"
  12. I have a goal of a freestanding handstand as well. I've found that doing a bunch of work against the wall is great, but you _have_ to also do some freestanding kick ups as well every session. I was doing only wall and had really plateaued... once I started trying to kick up out in the open it really helped. Good luck!
  13. Wow! That is a challenge! Next challenge I expect you to add voice lessons and then you can be your own band. I expect a full cover of the "My Little Pony" theme song by the end of the year... but no pressure 😜
  14. I really need to start pimping up my journal pages like this.
  15. I feel like I am sensing a pattern with your hikes...
  16. Consider the value of taking the weekend off for those things. Maybe you need a break to be able to stick with it better during the week. Just something to consider.
  17. Gardening can be just as strenuous as walking. If you are weeding half an hour non-stop that is at least as good as walking half an hour at a normal pace. Just my $0.02
  18. Haha! I read that as you tried to get pregnant. But for real, your trying looked great to me. Keep on trying... at whatever it is
  19. Congratulations on getting out of a toxic situation. That sounds like it sucked.
  20. Having been juggling for many years, I might have some unsolicited advice. Feel free to tell me to shut up or to ignore me 😜 Take care with weighted juggling balls, they are awesome for conditioning and I highly recommend it as a form of conditioning, but no more than half an hour a day as RSI with weighted balls is a real concern. You may already know that, but I feel obligated to say something. Also, I find doing regular balls after the weighted ones to be great for coordination. For me, I feel like tired muscles learn better. I am currently working on juggling clubs. I can do it fairly consistently and so now I am trying to master crossing my hands every few throws. It keeps me humble to try something I can't do, but I also remember a year ago when I was trying to get back into club juggling and had a hard time stringing 5 throws together. Best of luck and I can't wait to hear about your juggling successes!
