Breaking your boundaries, Twitter rants and more

Yesterday’s martial arts was truly an eyeopener. I’ll write more about it over at AskOwlbert, but in a nutshell, I got pummeled to the point where choosing to stop was more attractive than 39 candy bars to a toddler…but I kept on going. I’m feeling much better this morning (I’m aching so much my body didn’t want to sleep much) and am still analyzing the whole event.

I personally think that everything you’re pushed out of your comfort zone, you learn something about yourself…and you get stronger and stronger. The process to getting there, however, is utterly (and this time I’m using the phrase correctly!) soul-searing. You’re never the same afterwards. Oh, and Brazilian Juijitsu was great fun as always.

Kid-wise, my kids took great care of me after sparring last night. It’s so super to have children who can recognize when Mom is about to fall into a heap, and do something about it.

Workwise, I wrote:

I was planning to write in Virtual Coach after returning home from karate. Not a chance of that yesterday! Oh, and I started my coffee blog, but haven’t written anything.
