Nope. Stump appendix has flared up again. I will be trying to get this operated on ASAP. I'm sick and tired of being sick. On two antibiotics and nausea medication, probably another CT scan on Monday.

Cecectomy performed yesterday. Surgeon said previous operation left about half of my appendix behind. So he removed that and a tiny portion of the cecum(?) to ensure complete removal. Hopefully this fucking thing will not give me any more aggravation. Yesterday's surgery was a snap, in and out of the hospital in like 6 hours. At home now recovering. Will hopefully be able to resume work and lifting in a week or two.

Back on the horse! Will start this off easy, and work back into it. 2 days this week, start 3 days next week. Plan on following LP until it's run out.

Holy hell. Can't believe how much strength I have lost. Looking back, last heavy SQ WO was at the end of February, last heavy upper WO was at end of March! Got to get this shit back on track.

Go to 10# jumps on SQ, 5# jumps on OHP.

Wanted to do chins today but it is raining like hell out there, so curls in the sq rack instead. Also, we have lost power, so I am lifting by candlelight, with zero music. Wish i could find my headphones.
