The cards we're dealt

This week has been the week of news that will definitely create some challenges with my training. First bit of news was that Chelsey got into her master's program. Super awesome for her but that means I am moving to Vancouver. I am not sure on the logistics of this %100 but I will most likely have to leave by August.

Then this morning I went to the doctors to get my knee checked out and he believes that I have torn part of my cartilage in my right knee. I have an MRI scheduled for the soonest they can get me in, which is who knows when. This is hard because I am not good at resting, I am not good at taking things easy and I like doing things. I am not careful and I don't take care of myself that well so this is a major shock to my lifestyle and I don;t really know what to do. I am also frustrated with myself for getting hurt in the first place.

Had good classes on Friday. Saw an increase in my numbers for the bag work. I've been working on keeping control of my breathing and quieting my mind. My numbers are still low and I have a lot of work ahead of me to get them up. 

My second class I added onto my stick form I am creating so it is coming along slowly. It is challenging working on stick in my apartment without breaking to much stuff or scaring my cat. If it wasn't for the extra time in the kwoon I would probably have to practice in the snow.

it's been a long week

A bit late on this post but it has been a really long week. Starting on Tuesday Night I waited in the hospital with Chelsey as her grandma passed away. The Funeral was on Saturday so there was lots of stuff that needed to be done, Me and Chels spent the week scanning hundreds of photos and putting together a slideshow which was really cool seeing how appreciated it was by the family. It's inspiring to see how much a family pulls together in times of need and how many little acts of kindness they do for each other without thinking about it. Even being aware of what I was doing for people I still probably missed a whole bunch of that I could count. Anyways now that it is Sunday the cold I had been fighting off all week has hit me like a ton of bricks so it is time to rest.
