I should have my ass in bed but the husband brewed a nice batch of espresso after supper and now he’s of to work and I’m wired like an idiot. The pics turned out a little fuzzy - I didn’t have my shutter speed and iso tuned properly. Photography lesson of the night. Don’t drink espresso when going through a bout of isomnia.
love the seated photo, nlmain. sorry about your insomnia…i’ve dealt with that before and it’s no fun. now my sleep issue is only due to one of my cats waking me up at 4…
oh, HELL-YAH on the squat PRs…fan-fucking-tastic work woman!

Somehow I missed this before. Nice going on the PR. I love that my face acted as inspiration. FWIW, it’s also my getting good sex face.
I hear you on the subjective feel of weight. My theory is that gravity fluctuates. I need to finish my study.
Made beef tenderloin roast with roasted potatoes and red onions with a bottle of french bordeaux. it was freakin delicious. Husband said I was the awesome-est wife.
Visiting an old friend later today but I’ll try to get some lifting done later this am.
here’s my 155lbs x 1. If you pause it at 1:05 you can clearly see my big butt past parallel. I need to work on keeping my core tight, the bar low on my back and explode out of the bottom. but still that’s 4 months progress to reach bodyweight.
fyi: my silly peek-a-boo, bad-form goodmorning vid has reached 1,318 views. does that make me a you-tube porn star?? lol.
Had a blast yesterday catching up with an old friend. It was worth a dozen high school reunion and then some. Today we are heading to the Easter Townships to hang out with some family. It’s a beautiful day to get out of the city.
I remember that March vid. I think I called you on the carpet on it, bitch that I am. That 155 looks tremendous! Your progress continues to be very inspiring.
