California, June 15-16
Jun. 16th, 2013 09:17 amDay 10: Pretty uneventful afternoon/evening. Started vacuuming (after cleaning out the vacuum parts) and got through two rooms so far. Halfway done with hemming one of the jumpers - it's about an inch longer than one of my Eat More Kale t-shirt... went to bed about 10:00 p.m.
Day 11: And woke up around 3:00 a.m. :P After about an hour I finally managed some light dozing between times working on my left shoulder, until the alarm went off at 5:50 a.m. Out the door by 6:00 a.m., 53F. Warmups were a little slow; I was actually feeling not too bad, just tired. Decided to do some Chin Na first so I wouldn't forget to do them. Six of the alternating maubu/gungbu type, then the first five of defense from front punch. Number 5 was little sketchy today, so didn't want to go past that. Ran through hand forms from Basic Stance to San Soo, then walked for a mile. 60 minutes all told.
Made breakfast for both of us - scrambled eggs w/almond milk, onions, garlic, and stinging nettles. Only dried nettles here, of course, so I put some in a little bowl and added a little water to rehydrate them.
Mom suggested watering the pot we're getting new plant(s) for - the pot still has the old plants in it that she doesn't want anymore, including a mini-rose with deep roots. Life got somewhat annoying when she came out to "help". Pot is watered, majority of plants are still in the pot.
I should probably vacuum another room this morning.
Oh, and looks like I've lost a few pounds. Hopefully this translates into happier joints, although frankly I think the work I've been doing on posture, stabilizing and strengthening have had just as much, if not more, impact.
Kent and Annie will be here at about 11:30 to pick us up and go to Kirk's house to celebrate mom's birthday. I expect I'll get a tour, since it's my first time seeing his place in-person.

Happy Father's Day to all you fathers out there!
