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. My coworkers think I'm weird since I recently acquired a VCR.
    My favorite movie as a kid is "My Neighbor Totoro" and it's a Japanese cartoon (anime). Fox released it in the US in 1989 on VHS. It was released in 2005 as a DVD but by Disney with different voice actors so I can't stand it. So now I can watch my favorite movie.

    This weekend, Time Warner is coming to fix my service since I set everything up right and they couldn't fix it over the phone. I also have a 5mi road race. And I'll be heading to my moms/grams house to stay overnight since I don't see my gram as much as she'd like (though more now that I live in Maine than when I lived in CT). I'll be going through my childhood stuff and tossing/donating since they're trying to do a clean out...

  3. The teacher video is great. I shared it with several teachers and many said they already saw it at a training!

    As part of my job I have to do filings with the federal government and I have to use Explorer to log onto those sites. I guess they have problems with change, too.

    On Sunday I have a 5-hour strategic planning session. We are dissolving the organization that is affiliated with a national group and starting a local organization that focuses more on what we need here. It will be good in the end but the process will be long and somewhat tedious.

  5. I am free as a bird because I'm not on-call and was able to scoot out a little early from work. I plan on doing a lot of house chores because I've been seriously slacking on that. When I see clean flat surfaces, I'll feel like I accomplished something. I do have a meeting in the morning that I'm leading (good grief I just remembered that!) so I'll be up early and out the door. The pooches got baths/grooming this week so they are excited to go to the park to strut their stuff. =o) Have a super duper weekend!

  6. Your comment about internet explorer made me laugh. I still use my AOL.com email address and my friends give me all kinds of crap about it. I'm not too hip on change either!! Have a good weekend :).
