Thank you everyone (JCU, Nancytree, Fremen, Montserrat, Mamtigerj, Tileenah, TopNotch, Mavis, Froud, and Mianevem). Life is ridiculously busy right now and I regret I haven't kept up with the Hive. Thank you all for your support.
My last entry was 1/8/2023 which is 3 weeks ago. I cannot believe it has been that long so I'll will try and be brief in my summaries. I've had some good days and a some rough days. Family dramas are taking up most of my time at the moment so bear with me. The past few months have started fairly weakly so I was going to make a conscious effort to rip into the activities this month.

Yes more new challenges. I spent some time going through the new categorisations of challenges and workouts by Darebee. I am taken on the four challenges that have been re-classified as Level 1. I am also going to defer 50 Push-Ups in One Go until I get a lot stronger (but only when I fail it) especially as it is now classed as Level 5.

Thanks again @Mamatigerj , @Tileenah , @Fremen , @Montserrat and @NancyTree . More down with a few more close to completion. As for my daughter, oh dear. Fortunately its only two days and I nearly added "this time". She has been going down hill for a little while now and we have pediatrician and psychologist appointments lined up. We've been in weekly meetings with the school to try and work out the problems and we're running out of ideas. I'm trying to give her more attention and the school has her on a performance plan which basically bribes her to be good. Fingers cross these measures work.
So Day 93: Thursday 24/8/2023
Back to work. Unfortunately I didn't get as much done as I wanted yesterday. The home school reminded me of the COVID lockdowns.

Thank you @NancyTree . It is one the joys of parenthood unfortunately. She already has a ODD & ADHD diagnosis but the psychologist feels there is also something else there too so he'll run more test. If there is something else then we can try and understand it and work with it.

Day 101: Friday 1/9/2023
No BodyCombat this morning as I was roped into helping out on the Father's Day Stall run by the Parent & Citizens group attached to my daughter's school.
Blood donation. Whole blood this time which was a pleasant surprise. I am used to being in the chair for over an hour for platelet donations and to get it over in five minutes was a shock. But a pleasant one which meant I had more time to go home and do housework!

I haven't done a lot of these exercises in quite a while so may have gone a little too hard as I'm now feeling a tweak in my right knee. I didn't think I was going too heavy at the time but now I'm beginning to suspect that I did and not warm up enough.
