When we visited Patrick, Mary & Addie in June, Jim announced he was going to start doing pushups. Having recently read an article about the many benefits of pushups, I told him I thought that was a
terrific idea. Then he challenged me with “I can do more than you”, a challenge he regrets to this day.
Today Jim did 19, admirable, while I did 40. We also lifted weights ( 2.2 kg, beginner sets) which he declared me also to be the winner of; I didn't realize that was a competition.
My real coup was soundly beating Jim in gin rummy something I haven't done for many, many years and not just because we weren't playing.
Yeah, Mellie!
