SPRING RECOMP 2021 - DAY 21
REST DAY
Feel like shit. Started yesterday afternoon. Little nausea, arm pain, light full body steam roll, mooodzz. Permission to rest.
Calories down. Scale down.
Feels like I was on a roll and am shit since starting this recomp. Diet, lifting and rest are consuming way too much bandwidth. Household logistics are on the verge of fucked. I am the bottleneck on a couple key projects. Practice is off. Fucking everything feels off. So here we go again...
This morning I am most thankful for -
* Sun's Out - Fuck Yeah!
* Garbage Collection - totally take that shit for granted....
* A rare community of neighbors who simultaneously kinda look out for each other and are not all up in one's business. Mostly. And, crucially, haven't reported my flame thrower grill to the authorities...
* The fact that my 18yo, despite my somewhat lapsed recent oversight, is totally on top of his shit and just posted his best academic quarter of HS
* That this success is a direct repudiation of the Ex's infantilizing "dragon mom" parenting. (No hate. She's done a lot. But extrinsic "motivation" is a blunt and limited tool.)
* Having kids who know HOW to think, and are consequently largely immune to being told WHAT to think
* Passing that down from Pop
* Not passing down other things...
* Ownership of my own time, mostly... OK, partially, uh, somewhat... occasionally, aah, whatever - I know full well and am grateful that I am gifted with a freedom of action with which many are not, non-trivial responsibilities notwithstanding
* Pop's relative health and independence, compared to peers
* Cousin G's nine lives. It's more like eleven. Over the past 30 years he's survived multiple heart attacks, a couple rare diseases, a couple cancers, including pancreatic cancer, which no one survives, and most recently, three days on the floor of his condo after a fall, unable to reach the phone, followed by surgery and multiple stints in covid infested rehab. Last time I saw him a couple months ago, he was too weak to drive. So yesterday he calls, fully recovered, and wants to go to Vegas....
* Man Yams - 40#, 30 yams, $13. Nuff said.
* Roasted Onions - currently included in every meal...
* Our neighborhood fox! Just strolling through the yard with complete impunity....
Forward.
