Saturday 6-20-26 Crafting, Workout & More

 

Hanging out with friends

We had a wonderful Saturday. The morning temperature was 75 degrees with an overcast and the high temperature was 91 degrees. We had a chance of rain all day but we only had a small shower at noon. 

We hung around the house all day doing this and that. 

Larry started a book a few days ago and stopped reading it today he wasn't even halfway into it. He felt it wasn't going anywhere. Then he wrote a review on it.

Larry spent the afternoon crafting, which was Mr. Scarecrow. He had resized Mr. Scarecrow yesterday. Today he decided on what color of paper he wanted to use and what paper he had to make. Then he cut out the pieces. Once he had all the pieces cut out he assembled Mr. Scarecrow with Leo. The first time he had made Mr. and Mrs. Scarecrow was in 2022. He wanted to redo them at a bigger size for Kay. The finished product looks super.

I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Two Game Tango Mini of 6 games (3 Spider and 3 Free Cell). It took me 17 minutes and 32 seconds to complete, which put me in 23rd place in my group. I played Angry Birds Friends and Angry Birds 2.    

I worked out for one hour and fifteen minutes with Wii Fit and Synth Riders.

I did two exercises from the Aerobic for 13 minutes (Advance Step for 5 minutes and Rhythm Boxing for 8 minutes), three exercises from Balance Games for 10 minutes (Penguin Slide twice for 4 minutes, Ski Slalom three times for 3 minutes and Snowboard Slalom three times for 3 minutes), three exercises from Strength Training for 10 minutes (Balance Bridge 10 reps for 3 minutes, Lunge 20 reps for 4 minutes and Torso Twists 6 reps for 3 minutes), one Training Plus for 2 minutes (Perfect 10 twice) and five exercises from Yoga for 10 (Chair for 2 minutes, Palm Tree for 2 minutes, Standing Knee for 2 minutes, Sun Salutation for 2 minutes and Warrior for 2 minutes).

While playing Cirqus Voltaire I joined the Cirqus and Junk Yard I became high score #4. I played four games on the big cabinet, which were Michael, The Beach Boys, Willow and World Cup Soccer. While playing Michael I became high score #3 and The Beach Boys I became high score #2. I had a good day of pinball.

In the afternoon we watched YouTube videos. In the evening we finished watching the final season of Grantchester on PBS. It had a great ending for 11 years running. Then we started to watch the second season of Patience on PBS. After Larry went to bed I watched the fifth Transformers movie, which was Transformers: The Last Knight. I ended up doing 4,000 steps.
