Nothing got snipped at the dermatologist this morning, yea! Off to the dentist in a moment (routine), physicals tomorrow.

A little project my father and I will be working on soon (see pic)...

They're almost done moving their stuff, recently brought over most of his very old iron weight set, except for a few bigger plates. They've been neglected but he could never part with them, some of these (the plain solid ones) were hand made by his brother (the one I've posted about the plane incident in Vietnam).

We're going to pick up a sand blaster from Harbor Freight to clean them up and then paint them with his compressor sprayer, probably a pretty red like they use to be. It's very cool to me, to have such a classic weight set.

I'm now maxing my bench and barbell (i.e. 130 lbs. bench press, 2 sets of 10) and also using my biggest 30 lbs. dumbbells for dumbbell flys (butterfly curls). I'll add a third set before increasing weights, by then I should have my upgraded iron weights ready to use.

The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly it’s day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run
