TBR

1. The Chosen: I Have Called You By Name by Jerry B. Jenkins a written depiction of the television series by Dallas Jenkins (yes, Jerry if Dallas' father). I love the television series about seeing Jesus through the eyes of the people who knew him. The book uses the dialogue from the series, which helped me clarify things I missed, even after multiple viewings. 

2. The Road to Cavan Town (A Timeless Romance Anthology Book 1) by Sarah M. Eden a Victorian romance. A fun short story at Christmastime.

3. It Happened Twelfth Night (A Timeless Romance Anthology Book 1) by Heidi Ashworth Regency romance. A bit of mystery with the romance. A charming story. Adding Heidi Ashworth to my MRL.

4. An Unexpected Proposal (A Timeless Romance Anthology Book 1) by Annette Lyon historical romance, Utah 1880s. Short and sweet.

5. The 9-12 Project by Staci Stallings. This is my second time through the program, and I'm starting it again and again. Each time, I gain something new.

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. My pushups are against the wall.

Using 1, 2, and/or 4-lb weights:

PT ~ Physical therapy

UBP ~ Upper body exercises, pushups, and chair sits against the wall

FL ~ Sitting foot lifts to strengthen knees
