The first day went really well. The moves are coming back slowly. Getting ready for day 2 now. I am having some problems with my ostomy appliance but it is unrelated to Tai Chi and not causing any real problems in class so far.

Tai chi weekend
Has a pretty full day. Worked all day, spend dinner and playtime with the boy, then cleaned and did yard work all night.
Tomorrow morning I am going to attend an all weekend Tai Chi class to get me started so I can attend weekly evening classes near by. This will be my third time enrolling in Tai Chi and I am really looking forward to it. I love exercising that physical/spirit connection. Any martial art does this and while this is a soft martial art it still trains you're mind and body to act smoothly and without thought.
Weight loss update
As some readers (googlebot, I guess) will know I had a major operation at the end of February resulting in weight loss among other things (this was not the primary goal of the procedure). Since I have blogged about weight loss here in the past I'll update with a note that I am down 30lbs since then without trying but now the weight loss has stopped so I need to start watching what I eat again. I think this is a good sign that my body is absorbing enough nutrients again so I am ok with this. :)

Revive?
I might revive this blog. I have been running a small site from a vps but the novelty is wearing off. I was using it to play Dwarf Fortress but no longer have the time so I am considering getting rid of the vps, migrating my blog posts from there to here, and using Inbox/Keep/Calendar as my todo system in place of org mode.
I love org mode but it is a tad bit inconvenient.
