This blog will be turning 14 this coming March.
I've been skimming through old posts and checking them out. The only time I became very active with posts was when I tried to do the one photo a day challenge and blog about it. It was very, very useless since most of the posts were forced. Writing for the sake of making a blog, with no substance.
2009 was the year I had the fewest posts. This was the year I was getting ready to get married. It was also the year I went to Bangladesh (for work) for a few weeks and my folks and I went on a European vacation.
It's been a long time, and I'm glad I've been able to keep posting on this blog. Lately I guess my posts have been a lot more introspective. I guess that comes with age. I've also learned to censor myself a lot more since I started blogging. I've set up personal filters of what to post and what not to post. Maturity?
Anyway that's it. I'm posting too early about this blog turning fourteen, but in a way I'm excited I've been able to keep this up. The posts may not come as often, and I've become more private with my thoughts, but as long as I have something worth sharing to random strangers on the internet I will make a blog post.
Out.

[799] Skip Rope
I recently purchased a cheap skipping rope. I've not been in the mood to go walking lately because of all the road works going on inside our subdivision. My usual routes are blocked off and I really don't enjoy finding a new route. Like I said, I'm a creature of habit.
Anyway I got the skipping rope because I want to vary what little exercise I get here at home. I'm too lazy to use my kettlebells often so I thought trying skip rope will help.
I first started last Sunday and I can't skip more than eight or so times. I did keep trying though. The aftermath was expected. My calves were sore until yesterday, Wednesday. Sure I could walk but when I tried to skip rope last Tuesday it was too painful and I had no lift.
So I tried again earlier this morning. I decided to take a video of myself so I could see my form and to record any possible progress. Like I said in my youtube video, I think I still jump too high and of course I need to build my stamina up. Hopefully I can keep this up and improve my skip rope skills.

[798] 2019
2019 is here. It's only been six days in but a lot of things have happened already.
My wife went through major surgery three days ago. She is recovering well and we are moving forward with her overall recovery.
Today is our ninth wedding anniversary as well.
I have a feeling a lot of new changes are going to happen this year. I'm not banking on them being positive or negative, just changes.
As I said before, I'm not as excited or hopeful for this new year. It's just another day in the life.
