Killed it today!

Today was requirements day. From 8:30am-5:30pm, I was a requirements machine. I went straight from my pajamas to my swimsuit and set up outside. I had a grassy area for poomsaes, a towel on the ground for sit ups/push ups/burpees, a jump rope station near my iPad for a timer, etc. and I jumped into the pool when I got hot.  I would do a round or two, then do some laundry, then do another round or two, then do some weeding, another round or two, more laundry, etc.  I got a ton of requirements done (although it was many small sets), 7 loads of laundry, the whole back weeded, and made dinner. I feel so productive!  And I made it fun by doing some kicks, poomsaes, self-defenses (throwing Scott around), and meditation in the pool.  I've taken off the last 3 hrs, and I'm thinking I may squeak a few more in.  This should give me a cushion for when travel. 

Extra Credit!
