OT workout later this evening. Found out they will be suddenly closing our “local”studio due to leasing issues. Fortunately the other studio in the area really isn’t that much farther away, just the opposite direction.

Chris managed to impress us with his go-get-em attitude to the day....and then disappoint us with his lazy ass attitude toward finishing the day. You, sir, are a conundrum wrapped inside an enigma wrapped inside a roller-coaster of love. With coffee.

Almost a typical Saturday…almost.

Today time marks another milestone, as both my wife and myself are now completely bereft of grandparents on both sides of the family, with my grandmother having been the last and finally passing this morning at the ripe old age of 99.

She gets to celebrate the festivities of Easter a day early and is now blessedly reunited with my grandpop and family who have gone before.

2025 continues to show no improvements from 2024, as we see the passing of the pope, among many other things. What strange times to live in.

And it’s Monday. Ew.
