4th journal entry

Yesterday had Saturday black belt class followed by sparring class, I was a little apprehensive in taking both classes due to my injury, but I decided to that a limitation was not going to stop me. Adjust, adapt and move forward. Both classes were excellent!

3rd journal entry

Yesterday was not as productive as I would like it to be, but not unproductive either. My ankle still not were it should be, but as long I keep it moving the stiffness is not that bad.  I need to walk the fine line on keep on moving and not aggravating it any further.  I'll take one day at a time and do my best.

2nd journal entry

Not happy today I twisted my ankle on sparring class. There are certain moves that I should never try and the "Mario" kick is one of them!

1st journal entry

Trying to get in a routine, but with the cold weather and all the other things coming at me at once this week so far it has been a challenge - nothing that I can't master just a little frustrating. Need to find my groove. Being more conscious with my eating habits and water intake.
