6.7.16 Peeling an Orange

I got to Barwis and it was the day after Sean’s 8th grade graduation.  Hey, that’s a HUGE milestone for me! It was a weekday so I got as many of my family members who could come.  I cried!  I’m a sissy!  I know it!

Hopefully, it’s one of a couple of diplomas and a few degrees for Sean!  How official looking!, ya think?!

So, I’m happy that my boy is growing up but my legs were REALLY tight!  Nick loosened them up a bit and then got me onto the table.  This time, he said we would start on my stomach.  I hadn’t laid on my stomach in a while.  I remembered all the PNFs I would do while on my stomach.  Pulling my foot down to the table was A LOT easier than keeping it up as Nick pulled it down.  He pulled it down with such ease, it was as if he was peeling an orange.  I squeezed my eyes shut, gritted my teeth, and even grunted a bit but it wasn’t helping much!

It wasn’t until the second sets that I finally offered a bit of resistance!  But, I KNOW that it’s better LATE than NEVER!!!  It really stunk and was frustrating that I didn’t have a good showing!  My disease IS progressing and I hadn’t done these in a while.  (Thanks Michael for making mr know that!). Then, Nick worked on my quads.  He pulled my knee up off of the table and this time, I pulled it down.  Quickly and with force.  Nick was happy with this showing!  I rolled over onto my back and I was tired!

We did a little bit of stretching but Nick could see that I was tired.  Once in my car, I was too tired to even talk with my Mom.  I didn’t sleep but closed my eyes and leaned my head back.  I don’t even think we listened to music!  If we did, I didn’t hear it.
