Dogless, done before dusk

298227_10152226298712841_780607797_n[1]So Ali is back in town meaning my bed is no longer shared with a snoring, face licking, black and furry companion.  For the past two weeks I have had the dogs in the house more often than not.  They really enjoy the freedom the house offers them.  I have been leaving one of the lanai doors cracked so they could also venture into the yard and back as they see fit.

It’s always a bittersweet moment when I drop the dogs off after an extended stay.

rating[1]Last night I got home later than normal.  I had to hurry because I wanted to get one last attempt in at the normal mode of this month’s BB challenge before daylight ran out.  I jumped right into it with little warm up.

I was disappointed I only shaved a few seconds off my time earlier in the month.  My pull up bar felt slimy/slippery on my hands because of the damp grass I was doing the push up sets on.  When my grip on the bar does not feel solid my reps suffer.

If you want to see the sets (10 sets of 5 pull ups and 5 push ups), click here.

Although my energy level feels pretty close to normal I am still subject to coughing fits and excessive nose blowing from whatever illness I came down with after Troy’s visit.  The one nostril actually was so raw it was bloody.

I don’t have much else floating through my brain at the moment.
