    It sounds like you're a regular instructor now! At least a regular substitute. Great job!

    It's so good to hear that your hip is feeling better, but you better stop slacking on PT! Lol. Keep doing the things that helped you heal. A tournament at those fairgrounds sounds so exciting! Is it true that Wild Waves is getting shut down?

    Hello Everyone! Still no Internet since early August due to that one hurricane / outage. Trying to get Starlink, but they have been sold out all month.Then last week around 3:30 in the morning the next door neighbor was screaming death threats outside of our window and threatened to shoot us and kill us if we didn't take the security cameras that are on our house down (after hearing footsteps in the middle of the night outside of my window, they seemed necessary) also, they haven't been connected this entire time since we don't have an internet connection (ironically). The day before that I was jogging around the house and heard some yelling, but didn't realize it was directed towards me (I had headphones on) my partner told me to come in and said the neighbor sounded drunk and was screaming "get your f*ing camera out of my face you b*tch. I'll shoot you." For like 10 minutes. We both thought he was arguing with his wife, but the next morning confirmed that it was directed towards us. Long story short, he got charged with terroristic threats and I filed a tro. I don't like the court process, but this has been so stressful since the day I moved in. I've been afraid that he might shoot us even on accident.
    I'm glad we have somewhere else to be, but this is stressful and I have to revise my workouts.

    Hope you are all having good weeks and are not as stressed!

    Yikes! I use cameras, dogs and something special if that doesn’t work. Be safe.

    Yes, I think I need to up security. This evening someone had locked our gate and glued the lock, then in the carport area, they had lit candles, rolled out my yoga mat, and decorated. It was freaky to hear about and I found out that a different neighbor was hanging out there and was tripping on something trying to "make it nice for us." Gypsyland is getting a little too weird.

    That's gotta be kind of eery. I never went even though there were always field trips there throughout my childhood. I found out that they also shut down the Evergreen State College swimming pool in Olympia... So many swim meets and memories there. It's the end of an era. I'll be worried if they shut down the King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way...

    This has gotta be the weirdest week I've had in a long time. I have still managed to do modified versions of my workouts so that feels good. I'm not loving the hypervigilance I'm feeling, but it's better to be safe...

    Finally got Starlink and it's so nice to have the internet. I love off grid living right now.

    I'm not going to be able to do pullups without my pull up bar. Any suggestions for alternative moves?

    I've been thrown out of my routine this week. Yesterday I didn't do my workout, but I did some dance drills. Today we drove 2.5 hours to stay at an airbnb, but it was super dirty and there were cameras that followed us around inside the house pointing inside the kitchen and into bedrooms (far beyond normal safety surveillance and super creepy and jerky). We decided not to stay and go home and Airbnb doesn't want to issue a refund. Definitely not worth $1500 for 2 nights. The climate where I live is actually way better than that Airbnb's.

    I did 40 pushups and they were so hard... Here I thought I was building strength, but I haven't trained push ups in months. It's weird how you can build muscle and strength in some areas while other areas still need more work.

    How are your workouts going? I want to start getting back on track again.

    Today I feel like I'm getting back on track! I did my hinge workout this morning and substituted pull ups with dumbbell pullovers. I just got back from a run and it feels good. There's a hawk that is stalking my garden area so I put a chicken diaper on my hen and brought her indoors.

    I heard that the internet is finally getting restored so that's really exciting after being disconnected for over a month.

    Hope you are having a wonderful week!
