I’m really into my Pilates reformer these days. I actually just got done my hour work out. The old man needs to know his limits. Since I been using the reformer and got my trainer I haven’t hurt myself. I’m too old to be getting hurt. But I did totally forget this is your workout thread. Got to listen to my body right? πŸ™πŸ»β€πŸ˜Š ---

Come on now, you can do one hour and one minute more! I was never good at knowing my limits until I smashed through them. And you know what? They are mainly in my head! I can use my body wisely and still do all the stuff I want to do. Now, crashing a bike or taking a header running down a trail, well, that’s getting into the limitations area just a wee bit… ---

Day 1 done. Quotes this month will feature Thomas Aquinas, a Catholic philosopher I studied in my misspent youth at the seminary. True story, I was asked to leave after too much beer drinking (they sold it for a quarter for a pint in the basement bar, come on!) and hanging out with my girlfriend (summer camp lifeguard who I could not resist) on campus. > From _Summa Theologica_ > Article 3: Whether several angels can be at the same time in the same place? This reference is sometimes phrased as β€œHow many angels can dance on the head of a pin?”, and yes, we debated it. ---

Day 2 done! I returned at 2:00 pm from my trip, and went straight to the gym! 🀣 Well, almost! First I had to clean the mess that my cat made in my absence (kick over a plant and scratch out all the turf! 🀯). Today in the gym I had, among others, 15 minutes of rope skipping. I’ll count that as the 2-min jumping jacks! πŸ’ͺ🏻😊 ---

Day 2, I did the push-ups, I’d catch he’ll for doing jumping jacks at this time of night! > If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things. > _Rene Descartes, Catholic philosopher_ I spent most of months 6-18 in sobriety doubting everything, the AA program, a higher power, my own worth. At 18 months, I had a spiritual experience, detailed elsewhere on TS, when my dog died and I came to an understanding of what a higher power must be. I haven’t doubted much since. Seen lots of bullshit and lots of beauty. I can accept them both today as being real. ---
