SO MUCH FOR THE RAIN



Well it looked like we had a pretty good chance of rain yesterday but we got very little of it here in Colonial Heights. It looks like most of the rain was focussed about 10 miles east of the city, I don't even thin we got more than .20 inches of rain. It does look like today is going to be a very nice day here in CH with a high of 85, a far cry from the near 100 degrees on Tuesday. My ear and sinuses continue to give me problems, I might just have to go over to Al's house and let him use that drill on my ear and see if that works. All I know is that is driving me crazy. I did get another good night of sleep last night, my body starting to feel much better now after two good nights o sleep. Also dad and the Wii have headed back to the beach. The Nascar Sprint Cup Series has there 2nd biggest race of the season this weekend when they race at the Brickyard. MICKEY

Today is National Hot Dog Day

If you're short on time, you may be tempted to skip the warm up and jump right into your workout. But the warm up is one of the most important parts of your exercise routine. By easing into exercise with light movement, you can gradually raise your heart rate, increase oxygen to the body and increase blood flow to the muscles. Not only will that make the transition to exercise more comfortable, it also prevents injuries by increasing the elasticity of the muscles.

Always allow an extra 5-10 minutes before the workout and warm up with a little light cardio.

Keith said...

Ear Candling, Mickey. They say its relaxing and will clear up your ear.

Claire said...

Mickey how about going to the doctor. I think that would work.

Al said...

mickey donna has gone to jasons in northern va so i can do the ear drilling anytime you want this evening i just need to make sure i have a small drill bit!!!

scott if i didn't have so many left over choices for lunch/dinner i'd go for a to fer too!

Bobby said...

I agree with scott, a foot long for lunch.I suspect Mickey misses the Wii more than me. Al needs to do the drilling of the ear in the garage to muffle any screaming. i believe the drilling should be tried before going to the doctor,a last but more reasonable last resort for mickey.

Lee said...

al I happen to have a set of small drill bits. also the man that comes by the bank that works with you did ask me how to spell my name!

Al said...

Three times this week i was denied access to Mickey place of Knowledge stating that it MAY contain fradulent information.To say i was shocked and shaken is to say the least. Have i been misled all these years with fraudulent knowledge.I certainlyy hope not. I am requesting the blog master to respond to these accusations promptly. Also,I am forming an unbiased investigative committee to address these accusations composed of the honorable Les Fryar, Bill Reade, the grand old man of baseball and formeer Blog partipant,Gary Fox, sometimes known as 'Crafty'I neeed to be sure that the blog ....Mickey' Place is surely a source of CORRECT KNOWLEDGE.
