Table Tennis with Obaasan & Ojiisan

I don't know what time I fell asleep last night; maybe it was between 3:00 to 4:00 a.m. in the morning but I managed to wake up before 9:00 a.m. I played 2 hours of table tennis with the old people. They're not bad. As long as they give me a work-out, then I am happy with it. This is my only means of aerobic exercise. My forehand and single backhand went in more often at the end because I was just resting the bat on my fingers and my wrist is relaxed. This allows me to put more spin on the ball as I flicked the wrist at the end of the shot. My double backhand is improving and the version with the side follow-through allows me to place it anywhere on the table with power and accuracy. I haven't used my straight-drive double backhand with the upward follow-through yet. This is an even more powerful shot with a lot of top spin. Even if it hits the net, it would just crawl over with the spin and power behind it. Apparently all my serves were illegal because I didn't toss the ball high enough before I served. That is something for me to work on. Now that my forehand shots are going in, I could also try the smash next time as well. Hahahahah (evil laugh) watch out next time, Obaasan, Ojiisan!!!!.
Got home at 13:30; had a shower; ate lunch and program the first movements of taijiquan into myself.
Climbed at 15:30 finished 17:30 Total: 4 Climbs
Quick warm-up climb: Halva
Working climb: ATGR 2 rests
Warm down and fatigue climbs: Past the Bosch; Past the Bosch - 1 rests
I am afraid that the part of me that wants to die will come back. It's probably the cause of this imsomnia and my natural reaction to this is to take part in all these activities. I've been told that I know more than I realize.
