Hurt The Back Again

This time I know how I did it.

I was dead-lifting. Everything was nice and smooth. Flawless execution, good form. On my second rep on the second set, I looked down, my back rounded, and felt the pull right away.

What possessed me to look down? The pain is not too bad and I won’t be out long. I would say about a week?

Going to see my chiropractor on Friday, get a nice massage and stretch. Then see how I feel. Then I’ll probably still play hockey Friday and Saturday?

Bye Bye Winter and Winter Tires

Earlier this week Environment Canada said winter in Ontario is over.

Normally I would wait till April 01 to remove the winter tires, but they came off today.

Also got an AEM Cold Air Intake installed.

I think I’m done with the mods for now. The next thing will be probably be an exhaust, when needed.

Different Kinds of Posts Lately

I know I’ve been posting allot of personal posts lately. Where I usually post fitness and food related things.

I’ve always wanted to post things like this but never really did. My original goal was to make this a “fitness” blog and will get back to that.

The North Does Get More Snow

This winter has been very good to us. Not to cold and hardly any snow. This week we’ve seen more snow than the whole winter combined. We got about 10cm Monday night and another 10cm last night.

I woke up this morning knowing I would have to shovel. I woke around 8:30am and looked out the window. The first thing I noticed was – across the street the driveways all looked clean, looked down at mine and it was full of snow. I guess it was the way the wind was blowing or is it because I live on the north side?

This is the view from Jacob’s room. As you can see hardly any snow. They were not shoveled. This is the whole block.

This is my driveway full of snow.

All clean. As I’m writing this, the snow plow just drove by. Now I got to go shovel the mound it left. It’s not to bad though.

Almost Got Busted

This morning I was going down to Burger King, the kids wanted french toast sticks. It’s about a 8 minute drive. I just felt the urge to open up. I was cruising at about 60km, down shifted to second and just floored it, before I even knew it I was doing about 120km, I know – stupid.

I get to to the light before the last left I had to make, I look in my rear view view, there’s a cop behind me. I have no ideas where he came from or how long he was tailing me? I make the left, lights go on. I just pull into the Burger King parking lot. I’m thinking – there goes my spotless driving record.

I’m waiting, I see him open up his door and slowly walking towards me, I can see him checking out my car, wondering what kind it is. I got the Korean Wing Emblems, so if you don’t know, you’ll wonder. My window is already down, he leans down and says “you were going pretty fast there, where you going”. I tell him Burger King, “can I see your drivers license and registration please”. I give it to him, but he doesn’t just walk back, he walks around to the front and he’s checking out the car.

He goes back to his car, comes back in about 5 minutes, and just says to me “take it easy out there, have a nice day” I say thanks, as he’s walking away, and says “nice car”. I say thanks again.

I pull into a parking spot, get the french toast sticks and drive home, “taking it easy”.
