Bed, Ahead, Red

This has been a long day.  Gabe and Samuel had to get up earlier than normal, even for a school day, so I didn't sleep as well as I would have liked.  But I got up and got ready for work and spent time working and time working on requirements.  I didn't get them all done by time she was ready so I did a bunch with her and managed to get over five for the day on all the physical items.  I don't know if I'll need to bank that for an emergency or if it just means I might finish those items early if I can bank more.  Either way, I've got them if I need them.

Went back to the dojang tonight for class since Gabe had to teach so I took over warmups and then sweated up and down the mat for red stripe week.  As far as I can tell, I managed to get through it without becoming deceased so I'm at least mostly certain I survived.  Then we had PMAA afterwards and I snuck in a mentoring session after that.  Now we're at home and have had dinner so it's time to get ready for bed.  Time to adjust back to school schedule mode so we'll see what tomorrow brings.  Probably more requirements.
