Weights with my personal trainer Denise Austin.  She says "if you rest your rust".  I have moved up to 5 lb weights and can feel the difference.  I guess you have to keep challenging yourself.  Start slow and work up to it.


Mom and I shared Acts chapter 1 titled Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven.  After 40 days of being with his apostles, after he was resurrected, he was taken up into heaven.  Acts says (vs 11)  "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do stand here looking into the sky?  This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."


On this day:


1989 - The Exxon Valdez spilled 240,000 barrels (11 million gallons) of oil in Alaska's Prince William Sound after it ran aground.

1975 - I must have gone into work and complained about the condition of some of the artwork at the Dossin Museum on Belle Isle.  We happened to have one of the best artist's in the area for restoration of artwork and frames.  My boss called and donated our services for restoration of a frame on one piece of work there.  I should go and see how it looks 39 years later. Parenting - Every family has one member that has a harder time making their way through life.  My heart goes out to Jean today, burying her son.  He made some bad choices and paid for them in the long run.  A mother never sees a child as less then her own special child and remembers the day they were born and the joy they gave as a child.  RIP Frank. Book Club - Blood and Beauty by Dunant, great historical reading.  The review I read was a little hazy as to the accuracy of the truth on this novel.  New Orleans : News about New Orleans Pelicans bing.com/news Power Ranking Every Key New Orleans Pelicans Player Before Season's End Bleacher Report · 1 day ago Their first season under a new moniker wasn't the rousing success many thought it would be, but the New Orleans Pelicans have learned plenty about their roster… Enjoy the Day!  Make it Memorable!
