Not for You Weekend Recap

Sup y'all, we're back to Monday.  Again.  I hope your weekend was a good one.  Everyone still soaking wet or did you avoid biblical rain this week?   Last week was not the greatest for me mentally.  I started to have serious pre-buyers remorse.  We're moving from one HOA nightmare to another in the form of either someone skilled in giving the runaround or are just plain a moron.  We have to ask every question twice because the first time we get a response to every question except the one we asked.  The fees just for the privilege to live here are jaw dropping.  Like $7000.  My cousin says it's for access to the lodge, clubhouse, all amenities, lakes, etc and I said "don't we get that with the monthly HOA fee we pay on top of that?"

King Kelly does it again

I was so excited to watch Kelly Slater win the 2013 Fiji Pro in Tavarua, Fiji. 


For those who don't follow surfing, Kelly is a 41 year old surfer who is still schooling the younger up and comers even though by surfing standards he's considered the "old man" of the bunch.  He's pretty consistently in the top five and watching him is like watching a true master at work.  While the other guys were all taking a break after their heats two days ago, Kelly went out and surfed because he loves surfing whether he's competing or not.  His dedication, physical conditioning, mental confidence, leadership and letting age be a number and not a boundary, keep me coming back to watch him do what he does best.  He's a true inspiration to not only stay active but to keep doing the things you love.

Do you admire a particular athlete?  Do they inspire you to keep your fitness goals in check?

  1. So glad he won. That is awesome. It doesn't matter what your age is if you've still got the passion and he is living proof of that.

  2. I admired John Stockton, point guard for the Utah Jazz basketball team when I was learning to love basketball, for all the same reasons.
