Day 58

Well it's day 58 and I feel good!!  Pounded on requirements today between laundry, groceries and ironing.  Got to meet with my mentee today, Luke, and it was great.  Today was his 7th birthday and we met in the parking lot at the grocery store and had a perfect session.  Found a nice grass area with shade tree by the bank and he did his thing while mom did her thing.  Such a special boy then he was off to finish birthday celebrations.  Finished the Kwan essay so relief on that one.  Trying to study for the test and just hope all goes well.  Everything is starting to run together.  I know most of it but when I start to write it down I go blank.  I will figure it out just hopefully by the end of the week. 

On a very sad note it's Master Moon's "temporary" last night in Charlotte.  I will miss her very much and will look forward to her return.  She is awesome and for those who have not had the opportunity to work out with her you are missing out.  I know she was sad on Friday but again this is just temporary and part of her journey.  Go do what you have to do, finish school and we will anxiously await your return.  Just please do not make me do Koryo with her again in front of people, talk about intimidating - - - she rocks - - -my body does not move like that.  I am optimistic but also realistic and doubtful it every will.  Safe travels Master Moon and we look forward to your return.  Hope it's going to be another great week!!!

long day
