Round 4: Day 61 - Total Body Plus

Mrs. Gias rockin' some close grip pullups.

So, banner day today for Mrs. Gias.  At the end of the workout she informed me that today was the first workout she had completed where she did not have to use a chair for any of her pullups.  Up to this point, she was able to get a couple pullups here and a few more there, maybe even a full set here and there, but she would always fall back and use the chair later in the workout to finish her reps.  Not today.

Today she completed Total Body Plus with no chair at all.  Watch out boys, Mrs. Gias is a bad ass.

A few other points of note:
  • Slept with the window open last night because the weather is getting gorgeous...maybe a bike ride today if I can sneak out of work a little early (not likely)?
  • It's April Fool's day and no, there is no April Fool's day joke on this page. I've done them before, but not this year.
  • However, in honor of April Fool's day, I was trying to teach B some Knock-Knock jokes at breakfast she could use on her grandparents.  This was a total failure.  Three year old humor is...difficult to understand.  Case in point, I spent a significant amount of time teaching her the classic banana/orange knock-knock joke (Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Knock knock. Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange you glad I didn't say banana.)  After nearly a half hour of practice at breakfast, I took her upstairs to try the joke on Mrs. Gias.  B proceded to tell this joke:
B: Knock knock.
Mrs. Gias: Who's there?
B: Horse.
Mrs. Gias: Horse who?
B: Horse glad I didn't say comb?

Wha? Yeah, total failure.

Yeah, but it made me laugh, which is the whole point in telling a joke, right?!

She probably knew that the Orange/Banana joke was going to get a courtesy laugh at best, but the Horse/Comb one - now that'll draw a real laugh from the belly up!
