I woke up and went to black belt class. The zoom meeting was not working so Master Marcus led our class this morning. Today we focused on our takeaways. I previously thought there was 10 takeaways that we needed to know however Master Marcus informed us that there is 32. I don't know how there is 32 different ways to escape someone's grasp on you but I will be eager to learn about them. We practiced 1 - 14 today. After class I came home and did my requirements. luckily this week we stay at the same minute amounts for everything. After my requirements I did some chores around the house. I am anticipating some harsh weather to come our way, hopefully it sticks until at least Monday. - Lucas
