    NVR,
    I appreciate your kindness, encouragement, and wisdom so much. I trust in Jesus; I know He can help me come out of this a stronger person. <3

    No matter who you trust, YOU are the only person who can make decisions for yourself. No deity can make decisions for you. It's all on you to do it. If you believe what you read in your books, you have free choice, and you can make your own decisions. If you believe what you read in your books, there may be a judgement waiting for you later based on your decisions, but it's still all on YOU to make the decisions and to do what you believe is right.

    If you believe what you read, how can you make the decision to smoke? Wouldn't that be self-harm? I thought that was frowned upon.

    Hey gang,

    I like myself unconditionally!

    Happy Monday! Cotton candy, tootsie rolls, 49ers going SUPERBOWL!!!! That game was so frustrating till the middle of the 3rd quarter on! So glad the 9ers got it together and pulled it out. I'm so stoked and excited and want our 6th ring finally!!! Revenge on Mahomes and Co. and a win would bring a frown on Taylor Swift's face!!!!

    Cardio: Walk/jog- 260 calories

    Strength: shoulders- machine shoulder press, rope face pulls, rear lateral raises, side lateral raises, single arm cable side laterals, shrugs with dumbbells 4x15

    Assessment: McDonald's last night for dinner because I was so involved in last night's game.

    Weights: Upper Power

    Bench Press 5x5
    Cable Row 5x5
    Machine Decline Press 5x5
    Machine High Row 5x5
    Seated BB OHP 5x5
    Cable Woodchoppers 3x10 (High, Cross, Low)

    Food: Last night beef pot roast, which slow-cooked all day and filled the house with aroma while I watched football. Have to admit, was hoping for the Lions to make their first ever Super Bowl, but as long as SF whoops KC, I'll be fine with it. Sick of seeing such sustained success (alliteration, anybody?) by a divisional rival.

    Weights: Lower Power

    Rack Pull 5x5
    BB Hip Thrust 5x5
    One-Leg Press 5x5 <superset> Leg Press Calf Extend 5x15
    Roman Chair Knee-Ups 4x20

    Analysis: Knee was grumpy over the weekend, so wasn't sure how my first leg day of the week would go. Turns out just fine, since by the time I got to anything involving deep knee bends (leg press) my joints were warmed up enough to be good to go. Friday's squat session starting off the second leg day may be different, but I've got three days to recover before then, so here's hoping.

    Food: Last night was homemade spaghetti with side salad

    Hey gang,

    I like myself unconditionally!

    Happy weekend! Laundry to finish this weekend. I also had to order 2 new headlamp housings for our Sonata (2012) because my daughter has to take a driving test Monday and the blinkers weren't working and because they do a safety inspection on the car before the test, I decided to replace them at a cost of $120 for both rather than go to dealership to fix the bulbs at the same cost. These replacements are much brighter than the old ones.

    Cardio: Walk/jog- 260 calories

    Strength: hamstrings- seated leg curls, lying leg curls, stiff legged deadlifts 4x15

    Assessment: Pizza for dinner because my daughter hasn't had it in a month.
