Been a Busy Few Months
I think I am mostly past this blog, so I am sorry if you visit and havent seen much action as of late. I have had some minor medical things going on so my lifting has been a bit less, perhaps 2-3x a week at most. Some week I am only able to get to the gym 1x/week.
Was back in physical therapy for a bit but the therapist was not the right one at all. I mean I could and was doing the same things on my own. My doc said many of the PTs locally are unfortunately "boutique" style PT. I will be trying someone new starting next week.
Additionally I knit a storm this past winter for the grandkids. And have had the whole family around from Israel for much of the past month or more. Some are still here. My time is less my own and seems to be more their's. I love 'em but I think there is a reason my babes are given to younger people, not that I am old!!

Not a Lot Happen' Here
On this blog, I mean!! I haven't posted for a while not from lack of happenings either. I had been busy knitting up a storm for the grandkids and all!! I spent 8 days in Israel visiting the family and my 17yo back home had a minor procedure done too!
While in Israel, I had the opportunity to train with the Israeli Weightlifting team. That was fun, despite the travel to get there--which was a whole other story!!
It seems as I may retire the frequent posting (obvious, hasn't that been!!) and just stop by periodically!! Hope everyone stays well!!
My latest project is a pair of shorts for my granddaughter! I love the heart embellished butt pocket!

Sunday Funday
Well yesterday it was really cold here and I stayed in basically all day!! Yeah I did deliver a package to someone on Saturday night in my car. I drove from my garage to their house and back! Oh and I was in PJs with a coat over:-) Went to bed pretty late and then I didn't sleep well again. New story these last few nights and I can't figure out why either.
Up this morning, hanging out some in the quiet house, with the snow falling outside. My husband and daughter left last night for three ski days in VT! Left sometime after 11am to train with coach. That went well, although it was like 100degrees in the room. Coach loves when we sweat and are nice and toasty warm.
1 min C2
shoulder rehab
CL 15/1
CJ 15/3, 20/3
CL 25/1
CJ 25/2, 27.5/2, 30/2, 32.5/2x (missed both on clean)
FS 20/4
CJ 32.5/1x (missed on jerk), 32.5/1 (missed on clean)
I was really getting frustrated by now and would have loved to go back to 30kg but knew coach wouldn't be happy so I didn't say anything and persisted!
32.5/1, 1x, (32.5/1)5--YEAH!
FS 25/3, (35/2)10 I love this new rep scheme, waiting 1 minute between each set of 2 for 10 reps!
DB SP l/r 1x6 @10#, 3x6 @12#
Rev Hypers 2x10
Came home, showered, chilled, did some paperwork and knit a bit. I actually started a new project today, a baby dress for a gift!
NICE DAY!

The Week's Events!!
Tuesday I saw so many kids. I also attended my second "knitting in the round" class and I finished my first mitten for my 17yo daughter. Knitting large objects is so much more work than baby stuff:-)

New Creation Today
Taught my am yoga class, did my shoulder rehab, went with a friend to a local yarn shop and KNIT a lot today!!
Here you can see an outfit I knit my granddaughter:

I am actually quite proud of myself with this. I never complete the garments myself. Usually My mother in laws with this or I pay someone. This time I tackled it and did it myself!
