As long as you call it HLM, the spirit of Bill Starr will infuse your reps with additional gains.

Shoveling snow.

It was the kind of snow with a layer of watery slush at the bottom, so you have to knock the 30lbs of goop off your shovel every other scoop. Fun.

Never tried it but I heard PAM works wonders for preventing that. WD-40 probably would too

So for a few months now, the 1st grader has been throwing temper tantrums at least 2 days a week when my wife leaves for work. He will claim she didn't hug him, didn't say goodbye, didn't hear him say "I love you," didn't see her wave out her car window, etc. Today (with his face pushing on the very expensive new screen on our new windows yet again) before she even got to her car he was panicking because she didn't say goodbye. I was standing next to him while she said it, three times. So very frustrating.

Pretty sure I forgot to mark a set at 11, but not sure enough to not do a set and actually mark it properly, so likely did an extra set in addition to an extra rep on the last set- things felt good.

DL kind of sucked. I blame all the shoveling the last 6-7 days.

The plug for my shaker tore out of the flap while still stuck in the hole. Second shaker that has died in the last 2 months. Should order a 5pk or something.

Electricity to the gym side of the garage is dead. It came on, then sometime while I was inside getting ready it stopped working somehow. Not the fuse, I checked that and everything else on that fuse worked (except apparently the backyard lights...) So somewhere somehow something happened.

That sounds like a big pain in the ass and possibly scary as well.

Turns out it was just the GFCI outlet right by the door. Why the garage (both door openers were out, which I found out when I tried to leave to get the kid to a ski lesson) is run off that I couldn't say...
