42990 lifted. Not as far as I wanted to be. but I’ll take it. Gardening has been whupping my butt the last few weeks.
I’m up to 32,790 lbs lifted. I would be further along but the week after I started this whole little project, I managed to get an infection in one of my fingers and it took a while to get it all cleared up. But I’m on like donkey kong baby and at least when I lifted on Monday evening, I wasn’t as sore as I was when I first started back at it at the beginning of the year.

A friend of mine here in Houston, Susan, is on the board of a new charity called A Simple Thread. I like the idea of what A Simple Thread is doing. They put together kits and take them out to homeless people who really need the little things in life – a toothbrush, a bit of laundry detergent, a coloring book and crayons for a kids who with their parents, snacks. Susan says the most amazing thing she’s seen while working with A Simple Thread is the homeless people sharing what they receive with other homeless people.
So starting January 5, I’ll be working toward a goal of 1,000,ooo lbs of weight lifted to raise money for the organization. I’m enlisting my friends and family to donate for the cause. And I’ll be posting updates on the Million Pound Challenge on a page on this site.
