Monday 6-29-26 Dancing with Di, Crafting, Working Out & More

 


Awesome Day!


We had an awesome day of doing this and that.

The weather was hot and sunny. The morning temperature was 78 degrees and got up to 97 degrees. I think it's going to be a hot summer.

We started the day off by attending Di Green and Terry McCann's Weekly C1 Dance at 9:00 for an hour and fifteen minutes. Terry danced with Di the first tip and part of the second tip. Di called five tips of C1 to 14 participants. Di did a great job of calling, dancing and cueing through out the dance. In between tips the dancers visited with each around the world. The dancers were from the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada and the United States. Larry danced with me for four of the tips. We had an outstanding time dancing with our virtual square dancing friends.

Larry did a little crafting. He assembled the witch he cut out yesterday. He also pulled up the file of a skeleton he made a few years ago. He resized the skeleton so it would be the same size as the other figurines he made for Halloween for Kay. He'll assemble it tomorrow. He always has a great time doing his crafting.

After crafting Larry started reading a book on his e-reader.

While Larry did his crafting and reading I played games and worked out.

I played the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Tri Peaks Adventure of 20 games. It took me 1 hour, 24 minutes and 59 seconds to complete, which put me in 9th place in my group. I played Angry Birds Friends and Angry Birds 2.

I worked out for an hour and fifteen minutes. 

I worked out with the Wii Fit for 45 minutes. I did 8 minutes with one exercise from the Aerobic Menu, which was Rhythm Boxing. I did 7 minutes with two exercises from the Balance Game Menu, which were Ski Slalom three times for 3 minutes and Soccer Heading two times for 4 minutes. I did 10 minutes with four exercises from Strength Training Menu, which were Sideways Leg Lift 20 reps for 2 minutes, Single-Leg Extension 20 reps for 3 minutes, Single-Leg Twist 20 reps for 2 minutes and Torso Twist 6 reps for 3 minutes. I did 10 minutes with three exercises from the Training Plus Menu, which were Perfect 10 for 1 minute, Obstacle Course two times for 6 minutes and Table Tilt Plus one for 3 minutes. I did 10 minutes with five exercises the Yoga Menu, which were Half Moon for 2 minutes, Sun Salutation for 2 minutes, Standing Knee for 2 minutes, Tree for 2 minutes and Warrior for 2 minutes. I was a great workout.

I played ten pinball games. I played five games on the mini cabinet, which were Batman Forever, Dead Pool, Fish Tales, Pirate's Life and The Godfather. I didn't get on the board but I had fun trying. I played five games on the big cabinet, which were Big Bang Bar, Game of Thrones, Guardians of the Galaxy, Superman and The Beach Boys. While playing Game of Thrones I got a new high score of 336,583,630, which put me in 15th place out of 36 participants so far this week in the challenge.

We watched out YouTube videos we follow.

In the evening we watched Dune: Part Two from our movies collection. It ended up with an open ending because there's a third part of it. It's going to be released in December. When Larry went to bed I watched Wicked from our movies collection. I ended up doing 4,000 steps.
