Rising From the Ashes (CL)

Hi! Thanks for dropping by!
Things are looking up on my end. Hope you are doing well.

Got my goodies yesterday. One day is not enough to make an assessment but I love the way the compression sleeves feel! The arch supports also seem nice. The orange band is probably the worst one I have bought yet. I put it on the rack and gave the stretchy-stretch. Seems a little better but… we’ll see. Now to the dumbest thing I ordered.


The rings are childs play compared to the “real” ones I have. The finger thingys on the other hand are TOUGH!
3x10/green ones

Anyway kitted up like grandmaw at the old folks ho.e I went out and done stuff.

Meant to take Thursday off because I never know what I am going to have to do. Last two hours of the day was raking and picking up limbs. Legs were wrecked Thurs night. Cramped up big time and part of the day Fri.
The finger thingys may not have been my best idea. My middle finger was so stiff I couldn’t even bend it :rofl:
Anyway… took yesterday off too.

Thanks! Definitely could have been tighter but, there was a vicious cat fight going on in the yard, my son was having a meltdown because it was 10 o’clock and I needed to go to town. :roll_eyes:

I have lost a few pounds of fluff and had to reward myself with a turkey sausage bun from one of the local BBQ joints and some Julio’s chips :rofl:

It was really good today! Well, all except for the part where they lost my order and had to remake it. Whatever works. They make from scratch in house and smoke it on the pits.

So basically I’m screwed.:rofl: My right hip already hates me. I need to find a video with some practice kicks or something.

I’ll find you a good beginners kicking demo and you tube and get you the link.

Thank you Harry!
