But I'm going to do my best! (I need to be at least semi well-rested to get through my birthday workout on Monday!)

I think I will zero these on my birthday. See if I can take this stuff a bit more seriously next year.

"Striving to be the change."
Short post tonight as the deadline for my final short story for my year of writing a short story a week is in 4.5 hours. And I haven't started yet. But I wanted to stop in here to say:

51 years ago today my family and I crossed Rainbow Bridge over Niagara Falls and set foot on Canadian soil for the first time. I have celebrated "Rainbow Day" on the 12th of January every year since. While I am grateful every day for the many blessings of my life in Canada, I set aside this day every year to reflect upon them and give thanks for them, most especially for the many people who have blessed my life in Canada. These days, because of the World Wide Web, and the connections it allows up to make across vast distances, my life has been blessed by people who themselves live all over the world, such as you lovely Bees here in the DAREBEE Hive. So to all of you who stop by my check-in thread here, cheer on my successes, offer support during the hard times, and share the journey with me, from snowy Canada to wherever you are in the world, from my heart to yours:

"Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others."
It looks like you still need some birthday gifts to fill in your spreadsheet. How about some jab+jab+cross combos, high knees, hooks, and hundreds? I'll also join you for the dancing today.

Thank you, thank you, everyone!
Another short update. Lots to do today!
Thank you for the new gifts @Syrius & @graoumia ! I've added those, plus some extra things from Plank Hero and Total Body Strength. (I fell behind on those this weekend due to all of the partying. So I might as well catch up as part of my birthday workout!)
Just one more exercise to pick now. What should it be?
