Finally it's time for the happy dance, I am in green on tracking in all except one item (mentee) and I could not be happier. My mentee, Luke -- who is the best, is only at class on Tuesdays because of other obligations. Hoping that I can scoot away and meet with him a few extra days to get caught up but if I do not it's ok- - he is so worth working with. I will be there for him on his next test regardless of cycle testing and requirements. I am very lucky!! Got to South Charlotte about 4:00 today and hit requirements hard. My little friend Johnathan was there, all of 3 years old, that helps with my requirements on Mondays & Wednesdays. He likes to know what I am doing, why I am doing it, what is next, when is the Panda going to find a home and can I have an extra peppermint candy. He just cracks me up. He likes watching jump rope & pushups, go figure that- - no Johnathan my body can only take so much I need to do other things. Can not wait till this one is a little tiger. Met with Inst. Tucker to go over 1st Dan Knife, hapkido and bolo along with 1st Dan Self Defense. She is the best- - I can only absorb so much at a time and she understands when to back off if I am in overload. Certain things are just going to be a work in progress but all is good.
