Words of wisdom, freight trains, and emotional rollercoasters oh my!

Morning!

Words of wisdom. Never bleed on fellow students at Brazilian Juijitsu. 🙂

Okay, I didn’t quite bleed on them…but the scab that resulted from being kicked across the room on Tuesday and becoming one with the carpet opened up again during the rolling/grappling. Wah! And the bandaid stuck as well as a wet paper bag. More wahs!

Family-wise, I do have to blog about the conversation I had with my eldest regarding studying, responsibilities, consequences and the like. Sigh. If only one could instill wisdom into youth without having to mentally use crowbars and concrete blocks!

Martial-arts-wise, BJJ in the morning was tons of fun, I’m so, ahem, newbie-like it’s laughable. Everyone weighs at least 50 pounds more than me, which emphasized I really need to focus on leverage and not weight. Still, though, it was tons of fun. And at adult self-defense yesterday, I was partnered with an extremely competent sensei who gave great instructions/help throughout the activity. No sparring, alas, but hey…I’m waiting for Tuesday! I’ve made a mental promise to myself that someday, I will be able to defend myself against the kind of “hey! I can touch the sky!” front kick that sent me flying before! 🙂

Workwise, I wrote:

Today I have a date with my husband, I take the kids to a party, and I generally take it easy (if such a thing is possible with my family. 🙂 ).

Time to make the donuts,

Barbara
