A year and three days ago my life and I changed dramatically. I should probably have reflected and written a serious post on this but chose to exercise instead :-) I will do a serious reflective post one-day - getting stronger is top priority at the moment (Yes, I have watched all of Justified).
On Monday I achieved a new personal-best on the leg bike – 2.3 km! After that it was time to switch to the arms, so I got Katelyn to set me up on resistance level III before she headed off to the shops. I thought it would take her about half an hour. Once you're strapped in you just have to keep pedalling or let the bike pedal for you, so I just kept on pedalling until she got back nearly 45 minutes later. Result - another new personal-best 7 km!
After that I had little nap :-)
Fortunately the nap and Tracy's enthusiasm got me through two hours of yoga/physio that afternoon. We have managed three afternoons this week which in addition to the bike most days is lot! There is a photo up on Facebook if anyone is interested in seeing what we have got up to.
If you are on Facebook you should also check out the short video of a spider that I have shared, it still makes me laugh and I have watched it at least a dozen times!

It was Cali's 15th birthday on Tuesday but we celebrated a little early (Monday night) at my place.
Cali looked lovely and a good night was had by all.

I will be finishing off the weeks exercise with hydrotherapy tomorrow, hopefully it will be enough to work off Norms seafood lasagne - yum!
Hi Julie, we think of you often from way down south in Victoria. The Brice family have always been just so kind and generous to us, you all deserve the best outcomes from life's challenges. If we get to afford to get back to Maggie, Zev and Lovelia (4yo) will be excited to meet you as much as us. Thanks for your inspirational life. Harry and Chile. 10-3-13.
