Artist paints our national anthem

I’m not feeling too hot.  On Thursday, I decided to walk and push through the Big Shop instead of using an electric cart. I’m happy I got through it without pain, but I think I maybe overdid my energy a bit.  I’m better today than yesterday, which I spent on the couch, so there’s that.

I am delighted with how much muscle tone I’ve gained in my legs and hips from walking the dogs and doing more around the house.  I gained 7 lbs in the one month between doctor visits, but my measurements are all the same except my hips, where I LOST an inch, so it apparently was all muscle!

My bum knee is definitely liking the lighter weight and better muscle support.  It was cold and wet on shopping day, ideal weather for a Bad Knee Day, but I didn’t have a twinge, even with all that walking.  I just got very, very tired. I saw a 3 lb. barbell at the store, so got it to work on my upper body while I’m waiting for web sites to load. It’s purple! 🙂

We also had exciting news yesterday!  Warrior Princess had an ultrasound that showed she is carrying a healthy little boy.  That gives us 4 boy grands and 2 girl grands, which coincidentally is the same distribution both Dearest and I had in our birth families! :O)

If I’m up to it, I’ll come back later in the day and do something else for all y’all.  In the meantime, this video came from a friend to my email.  It’s well worth the time.

Artist Joe Everson (his website is http://www.JoeEverson.com) sings the National Anthem while painting a picture at a Toledo Walleye hockey game. The result is AMAZING!
