Little changes like these are around to show you that you are doing something right.

Pullups are looking great too. Keep on keepin' on.

Thanks, Christin. Really getting excited about the Cert in two weeks!

How's the back doing? I marvel at the fact that you just keep on "hittin' it", even if the back is killing you. What a great role model you are for those of us who'd wanna wuss out......

Have a great weekend!

[B]Functional Workout:

Moved over 1200 cubic feet (over a foot of snow) - - slow going and still didn't beat the county plow, so had to deal with a 2.5 to 3 ft. high snow berm too! Approx. 2 hours.

[COLOR=Blue]And yes.....I still [U]love[/U] the snow! Bring it! :pepper::pepper::pepper:


[/COLOR][/B][/I][I][B]SATURDAY 090214

[/B]Company visiting - - more snow last night - - about 4 - 5 inches.

[B]Functional Workout:
Moved only about 400 - 500 cubic feet - - buddy helped :pepper:. Only about 1/2 an hour between the two of us.

[/B]Gonna see if I can make it to my globo later.....Fran is calling my name, can't keep her waiting too long...
[COLOR=DarkGreen]

Holy snow removal, Batman!

Re: Steve's "I'm not aging quietly" log
 

Hi Jenna,

Great new avatar! Yup....more snow than I've seen in years and certainly in the 4 1/2 since we've moved here. We've had over four feet now in about a week and a half. Absolutely love it!

[I][B]SATURDAY 090214 - - continuation.....
More Snow removal. Over three feet on the deck and in the utility trailer. Thought it best to clear if off before something broke.

Buddy and I moved about 250 cubic feet each.....I had the BIG shovel, so I got the workout! (Est 30 - 50# per shovel full). Felt better about no WOD for two straight days anyway....:D
