I have been doing my strengthening exercises multiple times a day. I can already feel a difference. I am sore, but it is from being out of shape. I even sat for about 5 minutes today and was not crippled when I stood up.

Progress! I love it! Man my arms are sore from the half push up things I am doing. The elbow I broke 2 months prior to Ethan’s 2020 move to NYC has healed but has a click and needs to be “cracked” frequently prior to continuing. I really am glad that it healed well without much medical intervention. Guess who is never getting on a rip stick again! But they look so fun and easy.

We got Moe a new “crate”. It is a bit taller than his current one. He will have a bit more room. This is more like a piece of furniture. I don’t love the color, but it may be a good project to adjust the color when my back feels better.

Paul spent the evening putting it together. He is so handy and loves being busy. I don’t even think he minded doing it. He didn’t really love when I pointed out the one piece was backwards. But he fixed it and it looks great.

Ethan got himself this mini bike. I heard a weird engine noise (which is not unusual at this house). When I went out to investigate, Ethan looked like a fat guy in a little coat riding this thing. He was far too big for it. Apparently this is a sport. 

He was riding it in the driveway without a helmet. I had to get after him. “Put on a helmet! You are on blood thinners if you fall off you could get a brain bleed and die.” I went on to say “or worse…you would survive and would be paralyzed.” 

While I can make these suggestions, he is an adult and in control of his own decisions. He was having a blast on this thing. Smiling ear to ear! Still being a pain in the ass.
