I have to admit I feel blessed. All 4 of my kids seem well adjusted and motivated towards a productive life (3 for 3 so far on jobs straight out of college, and #4 has by far best grades and test scores of all of them). I'd like to think I did that but kids are amazingly resilient and more likely look to do things differently than their parents --so maybe my bad examples have had the best influences.

I'm mostly still healthy but am noticing it seems much harder to get in shape (exercising now for our annual bike ride across WI --75 to 100 miles a day beginning 7/25). I worry a little bit when I'm slogging up a long hill pushing max on the heart rate, but I don't want to turn into a couch potato.
