After Journaling for this many days, you really start to run out of things to write about.

Let's see, I got up at my normal 5am...prepared for school. Then I fed my fur babies and walked my doggies. School went ok. I had extra kiddos due yo being split for testing amd another teacher leaving early. Teenty- six 7 and 8 year olds...needless yo say, not a lot was accomplished and I was waaaaay off my schedule.

Stayed late to do some work and meet with one of my mentees( I have 2 at school) then came hone and some how managed to get my requirements in. I think burpees should he replaced with jumping jacks or light bouncing- similar to what we do in sparring.

Time for bed. Night all

I've been in martial arts since 2002. I started in tong soo do under Head master M.K. Lee in Pineville, N.C. After I broke my left hand during a colored belt exam, I switched to Taekwondo under Head master William Grady down in Pineville, N.C. I trained at Eagle Taekwondo for 8 years, earning my 3rd Dan. When Covid the dojang did not survive. I have now been training at King Tiger , North Charlotte location, under Grand Master Evins since June of 2023. I am excited to start my Masters journey, but very nervous at the same time. I look forward to meeting the other candidates.
