Dry Monday

Dry as in the weather.  I was looking at the rain forecast with Debby coming up the coast and I'm pretty sure my grass is going to look like tigers stalk through it looking for hunters to eat.  I wish I had time to get outside and do some milage before the rains come, but I am also grateful to have access to treadmills for times like these.  Maybe the storm will veer off into the ocean, who knows? Hurricanes are predictable yet unpredictable.

So helped in one class, led warm ups in another.  It's really strange after you get used to teaching a class the whole period just leading warm ups.  I feel like I'm slacking.... speaking of.slacking, I need to get cranking on that creative form.  I really really REALLY want to do some with my three section staff, but I don't know what the learning curve is on that thing and ever time I try to use it I nearly concuss myself. I may have to do a different weapon this time and work on the three section for when I test for Master.
