Observation 1)
I have to make a definite effort to incorporate more stretching into my training. Both dynamic stretching(high kicks) and static stretching(floor work)Age is without a doubt a huge factor with the lose of flexibility. I lift weights on a regular basis as well, this strengthens the muscles but also contracts or shortens them ,if you will. This tends to work against the goal of increasing your flexibility but with the right balance you can have both.
Observation 2)
Surrounded by negative cranky people for a long duration without a daily break can make you miserable and cranky right back. The key is to recognize yourself falling into this state. Best way to fix it is be the opposite. Usually, and with a bit of luck others start to realize they are in a funk too.
Or, they find your pleasantness utterly annoying!
