you are a man of many talents. :-) So in the Army a plank is a rest? I knew I could never hack the military!

Jess, the "leaning rest" is the pushup position with the arms extended. The plank is the pushup position, supported on your elbows - obviously both with the body staight as a board, and on your toes. Those and the "extended leg raisers " on your back, were the killers. You spend 10 to 15 minutes in that leaning rest position, you want to hurt somebody. Hey, it's the Army, maybe that's why they did it! :)

What a beautiful pen. Very talented. I have to ask, what time do you go to bed if you're getting up this early? I'm done by 9 or 10 and I'm getting up just before 4.

Davidsmom: I get to bed by 10:00 on most nights. Bren, I have had about 10 hours of experience so far with the pens. And Ryan, "I don't always drink beer, but when I do, I drink Dos Equis." :)

"We usually talk ourselves out of our ability to excel." So very true. I'm guilty myself...

Amazing pen. I wish I knew how you do that, DK. Thanks for sharing the info on planks in the military. I usually like mine, so I can catch my breath from all of the other exercise. Hope your wife feels better soon. Have a lovely day.

Ah, Bren, but that wouldn't be any fun anymore. :) I appreciate that you think it's a masterpiece. There is an awful lot of pen makers selling their wares online, and they are a lot better - and faster - at it than I am. Most hobbyists, that I communicate with online, tell me they're lucky to support their hobby. I just do it for fun, and I'm independently wealthy (in my mind), so I'm not worried about it. They make nice gifts just to let people know I'm thinking about them.

I think that pen is beautiful and you played very well with acrylics. Its good to hear there isnt any fluid in your wifes lungs. What a blessing. It tickles me a bit you call sleeping in 4am lol. Mind over matter. It really is isnt it. I just wished I had the conviction to believe it all the time. I love planks. Working hard in short spurts. My kind of workout.
