This felt like a great workout. I was feeling pretty pumped up with how easy the bench press of 225lbs felt. I thought for sure I was going to get 245lb. On a different thought my throat was feeling a bit raw and I might be getting sick. I don’t feel weak, hot or cold but it could be coming. Tomorrow will be very telling if I am sick or not.
This evening I met with 2 of my brother-in-laws and 2 nieces. It was great seeing them. WOW the girls are getting tall! We had Chinese which is bad for my diet, but no worse than when I do a middle eastern night or eat out at a Mexican place.
Tonight was cool for another reason too. Our cat joined me on the computer chair as my co-pilot just like our past cat used to do. She is a funny one. Often she is not friendly but every now and then she does something nice like this and joins me or my wife when we least expect it.
