This 'N That

Catchy title? I got the idea from Gayla.

Well, I will be driving my daughter to school later this morning for her last day of final exams. The end of an era. She has her high school graduation this Saturday. College is this Fall.

Later this afternoon she goes for a job interview at McDonalds. Is there free junk food in my future?

My son made the honor-roll and, as a result, got his name in "The Greece Post", a local newspaper for our town of Greece, a suburb of Rochester, NY.

I am very proud of the both of them.

On the workout front: I have now completed the longest stretch of time without an injury - ten months of consecutive 300+ pound bench-press workouts and no elbow or pect injuries. Not bad for an old man of 49. There is a lot more snap, crackle and pop though.

I remember one time a few years ago when I did injure my pect. I was in the middle of a 385 pound bench-press and suddenly I felt my chest cramp up. I completed the lift, but when I got off the bench, my chest was in great pain; I could not even lift my left arm for several minutes. My left chest turned black and blue. What fun.

My dad is becoming more and more dependant on Karen and me. We are trying to make it so that he can stay in his own house as long as possible. May the Lord give us strength and wisdom.
