Last night, I attended soccer practice with my team for the first time since last season. Despite the fact that I have been working out at the gym regularly, I still found myself very sore this morning and decided to take it easy today. Discovering that my turf shoes have begun to delaminate, I set out to buy a new pair but found inventory at all the local shops depleted, so I had to order online and hope for a good fit. They will not arrive in time for my match this Sunday, so I plan to bring some duct tape with me just in case a makeshift repair is needed.

I have not taken a photo of the new house since the patio gardens have filled in, and ideal weather conditions prompted me to do so this afternoon.
