Snow, Death, Nursery Prep, and Kettlebells

Posted on February 26, 2013 by

We’ve had lots of snow lately in Lawrence.  Enough to severely impact how often we go out and where we go.  Been making it to work, which is all I need to do.

My wonderful dog Delilah died on the 17th.  I haven’t felt like posting since then.  She deserves a lot more mention than just a few sentences.  But I don’t think I can do a good job of memorializing her yet.  She is sorely missed.  And will be for many years to come. 

Been trying to keep busy and nursery prep helps keep my mind off the void in our furry friend world.  Painting.  Cleaning.  Organizing clothes. 

Kettlebells have also been a good way to keep my mind off Delilah.

37-year old multiple USAWA record holder who enjoys grip strength training, bending steel, and sharing my knowledge of training in both areas. A new addition to my training interest is the Highland Games. Had my first contest in July of 2010 and was hooked from the first throw. Armwrestling has now gotten my attention in a good way - I have some strong armwrestler friends who gave me a taste of it on 5-14-11 after the KC Qualifier II grip contest.

    Sorry about Delilah Ben, I know how much a loss like that can affect you. I still miss my Collie, we had to put him down because of stomach cancer and heart problems, he was 12. I miss chatting with you brother, keep on touch. If you have an e-mail or a phone number for the occasional BS over the tele let me know via facebook. I’d love to pick you brain one of these days.
