Yup for the better part of 25 years we’ve talked at least 2 times a day every day. I don’t think theres been 25 days we haven’t talked in that time. We are very close. Just found out my cousin is going into labor and the one thing she wanted more than anything was for my grandma to live long neighbor meet her kid. what a day and it’s not even 9:30.

Kinked it, wouldn't budge.. waited a few minutes and bent it fast G5 ISO x 7 seconds... both hands used leathers.. they need to break in 60d Spiral didn't time it but it bent like q-tip in leathers Rear Sledge levering (if thats proper term) 14lbs 3x3 @ 12" 13" 12" 88lbs 2H KBswings 10x10 44lbskb TGU 5x1 both sides Ring dips 2x10 Chest Krusher 3 springs 15 15 15 20 cool down I played some Willie Nelson and Every Brothers while working out today in honor of my grandma.. Two of her favorite artists. They are unhooking her from her machines today, she has no brain activity. They encourage talking to her... I had a nice visit with her, told her a dirty joke, held her hand, she hates that I bend steel and I told her i'd be bending some steel for her this morning, which I did. She helped raise me since both parents worked, so she's like my grandma, mother and best friend.

The 2nd bar O1dr is way tougher. I know in suedes I could do it. But that’s sort of irrelevant. I also think since I’m hitting the WD harder my wrists are little more tired. But every week I’m getting stronger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacksmith513 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 35 mins C2 level 5.5 6000m 12 minutes yoga. Just got word about 10 minutes ago my grandma passed.. She was the best. Im so glad I was there Friday night for 30 seconds to drop something off. And had got her some gummies and had nice visit Sunday.... We left on a high note. I talked to her Monday night. She lived in a low income apartment building with my uncle. They searched the building for bed bugs that day.. My last words to her where "goodnight, at least we know the bedbugs wont bite". 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost think she knew.. On Sunday she told me, half kidding "i'm old, i'm tired, i ache, i cant hear or see good, I don't have much to say".. Then she went to telling me about she was adding up all the men in her life. Because thats what grandsons want to hear from their grandmas. I will be partying it up for her this weekend. Thats what she wanted. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacksmith513 Posted November 20, 2022 Author Share Posted November 20, 2022 One thing I just realized. I should be adding lbs to my numbers. I know you guys know I’m weak but I don’t want to mislead anyone to think it’s kg. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
