Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

  2. I might be getting another cat this weekend. I say might only because I'm not sure any of the cats at the shelter will be a good match to my current cat, Eugene, who lost his dear cat mate (Olive) about a month ago. Rest in peace, Ollie girl. I hope the new cat is half as wonderful as you were.

  3. I am so excited to be going to opening night for hockey. I have my cowbell all ready to go. =o) I'm such a homer, but after the week I've had, it'll feel good to be able to yell along with everybody else and vent some steam. Hope you have a great birthday road trip!!!
