We had one earlier, I looked at the radar and laughed, there was no rain in sight. Total rainfall for the day was probably .01 inch.

I'm on the DL today after a mishap right before dinner last night. I was crouching for a couple of minutes tending to a messy floor by the dog's dish and got up too fast. Big mistake, I fainted and whacked my head on the woodwork of the entrance to the livingroom. Had a big, egg sized bump that I iced down and the worst is my neck, which is already, FUBAR suffered trauma.
Felt better than expected today and am hoping no Major neck issues to result. It is stiff and barking at me but I will wait before I see the Chiropractor.
I HTFU and cut one of the lawns and mulched the final 2/3 of the flower beds anyway.

I see Johns Hopkins puts us at #6 . Better, I guess.

Nastiness, DougRNS I have come close to that more times than I care to count. And, in my esteemed opinion, the only way you could do better than a chiropractor for that neck would be with an osteopath. I realize there are turf wars between the bone specialists and the MDs. The way of the world.

The Chiropractic approach down here taught at Life University is much different than the twisting and jerking manipulation I had experienced up North. They use a more passive approach by locating out of alignment joints and using a spring loaded device to put it in place. Not very forceful and seems to work. I'm pretty sure I'd never go back to the twist and yank approach.
That's all I am going to say about that to be respectful to all opinions.

I raced my first crit in 10.5 months today. I did everything right, but I just don't have a sprint. I guess I need to hang out on Zwift more.
Not.
Not.

My first tennis match in almost eight months went OK, except I can't run and had no feel for hitting the ball. So I lost to my HS freshman nephew. Sad.

In this video they brag about having a top 40 nutrition program ranking. I'm not sure how they get it. Coach's poll?
