TBR

71. Michael Vey: The Final Spark (Book 7) by Richard Paul Evans contemporary fiction. I've followed from the first book. Wow! What a ride! Sorry it's over, but enjoyed every moment.

72. The Art of War (Chiron Academic Press - The Original Authoritative Edition Translated from Chinese with Introduction and critical notes by Lionel Giles) by Sun Tzu is a work that is 2400 years old. If I wrote war stories, I would want this is paperback as a references. My stories mostly refer only to Waterloo and not in detail. I've plenty of references for it. However, it was a pleasure to note my use of spies fit relatively well. I think I'd like to read it again.

73. Teapots and Tiaras (Love in Store series Book 5) by Autumn Macarthur contemporary Christian romance. I love this series.

74. Whiskey River Runaway (Whiskey River series Book 2) by Justine Davis contemporary romance. She has bedroom scenes, so not a choice for those of my readers who prefer only clean romances. I love her characters and her "formula" for writing a romance.

75. The Reluctant Bride by Donna Hatch a Regency romance short story.

REAL week 430

REAL - Reduce stress Exercise Adequate sleep Lower caloric intake

What Navy SEALs are required to do to make it into BUD/S:
Right up front: Never in a million years could I do what is required. However, I needed to start somewhere. Considering how fit the SEALs are, I figured it was a good place to start. So my SEAL puppy reps (SEALp) consist of girls' pushups, crunches, and flutter kicks, a SEAL training basic. I started with doing one of each.  Since my accident I haven't done these, but I'm working to add them back into my routine.

PT ~ Physical therapy
UB ~ Upper body exercises

SEALFit shared some good hints I want to learn and remember:
