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.

Would be nice to see some perennial flowers coming up every year with minimal effort haha.
ReplyDeleteSince we put in the purple sticker bush out front we don't plant flowers anymore. But we do buy potted plants and put those out front. We have a big wooden planter that like so much (except for how heavy it is! lol) that we put a big Rio Dipladenia in every year that has this cool banana leaf in the middle and the flowers off on that thing are amazing. It lasts well into the late autumn and is so easy to care for. I'm thinking of doing a few smaller pots by the sticker bush, more in the back where they can stand taller and make a nice border. And last year I did not do our little bridge with the 3 mini-size openings but plan to this year. We buy the 3 - 4 inch containers and use some food flower and they bloom like crazy for the whole summer. Then when it's over, into the field they go and I recycle the little containers they come in.
