Day 12

We're a dozen days in.  I think this cycle is 12 weeks so... we're 1/7th of the way done?

I think I'm almost done wrapping up my current tasks at work (which is good) before I can start in on the big quarterly regression testing (very time consuming).  I'm really going to have to get better about making time for my requirements.  I'm not having problems with the daily ones but I'm starting to fall behind on the weekly ones (mileage, planks, etc.)

Black Belt Class is getting quite big at this point.  I know some of it is from the cycle but I know not everyone's there for that.  Plus Instructor Courtney came to North Charlotte and we've got some new faces of our own as well.  Once of which I have, apparently, picked up as a second mentee.

After class we were mentored and reviewed Second Dan special and then started on Second Dan one-step.  Lots of throwing and falling this time around.
