Practicing the Shower Juggle Inches Along
I’ve been practicing the shower juggling pattern and progress has been slow. Part of the problem is that it’s a difficult pattern and very fast. I have trouble getting elements of it solid. For example, I tend to make the horizontal transfer from my non-dominant hand more of a toss-up. That makes it look more…

Sena The Flashy Juggler!
Sena is a flashy juggler now, OK! She is now able to do the 3-ball throw and catch (for the cascade eventually), and in my Learn to Juggle manual, that means she is now juggling. She counts the throws, pays attention to the juggler’s pane of glass (the juggle space) and just generally has a…

Tufted Titmouse Playing Peekaboo
Once in a while when I’m filming wildlife, I get an odd feeling that the animal somehow knows it’s being watched. It looks up and seemingly right at the camera. I got that feeling while making a short video of a Tufted Titmouse the other day. It seemed to stare at me while I filmed…

Why Sena’s Juggling Balls Are Resting
Sena’s juggling balls have been silent lately, meaning I’ve not been hearing them hit the floor. She is pretty busy doing other things, like gardening. But I’m pretty sure another reason is dropping the balls. She and I are probably at about the same learning stage in juggling. She’s trying to get past the hurdles…

Ugly Juggling Shower Slow Practice is Still Progress
I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. I’ve got an ugly presentation with claw-grabbing, flattening the half shower fake jobs, and uneven throw spacing. But I’m not quitting yet. I’m trying to follow the JuggleMan’s example. I didn’t get a breakthrough until yesterday when I tried my black and gold Hawkeye juggling balls. I guess…

How Are Water Heaters and Jugglers Alike?
Let’s start off with a riddle I think I made up. I can’t find it anywhere on the web: How are water heaters and jugglers alike? The answer is at the end of this post. I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. Progress is slow. I found a YouTube channel called YouJuggle. It’s this guy…

Juggling My Birthday Glow Balls
Hey, it’s my birthday and it turns out the juggling glow balls are my early gift. Sena decorated my cake, using cookie icing that sort of spread out. You got to love the birthday card she got for me. “Selective Listening Ensures the Survival of Man.” Or at least this man. Just for the occasion…

Juggling Shower Practice Hits and Misses
I’m still working on the 3-ball juggling shower practice. I’m up to the toss and catch. It has taken me a couple of weeks to get beyond just dropping balls all over the place. There are a couple of methods I’m trying. One of them is to start the toss and catch by tossing up…

Stuck in Two Ball Shower Juggling Practice
I get stuck at certain stages in juggling. It’s uglier than usual with learning the Shower. I’m struggling with the two-ball practice. I’ve looked at the YouTube videos of several experts and their demos vary. I found out from a Wikipedia article that the two ball Shower is a thing. But it’s not juggling. I’ve…

Juggling in Living Color!
Sena got me a spectacular gift—glowing juggling balls! They’re not like any of the juggling balls we have. You plug them into a wall socket and they light up. They are not much bigger than the other juggling balls we have, so not much of a learning curve. In a way, they’re kind of like…
