Health Update: After two months w/o doing my exercises, I've discovered my shoulder is getting weak again.  Guess I need to resume my arm circles and wall slides. I'm also dealing with my semi-annual sinusitis, and the voice is once again affected.  Karaoke may be disrupted this month, due to both my voice and my KJ's health; he was in the hospital over Halloween weekend, and was told to rest.
