Motown

Went to see Motown the Musical with my mom's church group. It was awesome! Berry Gordy may be my hero. He helped put the 60's to music despite all the opposition, and personal, private hardships. And the music was excellent. Inspiring to see someone follow their dreams despite all those who say it is impossible.  It was also good seeing my parents and their friends laughing and having a good time. I could imagine them as teenagers dancing to the Motown groove

Did some requirements on Sunday and this morning. Freaking out a bit as it really hit home what is necessary every day to fulfill the 10 week requirements. I was getting really anxious, then I realized that if I do what I can this cycle, then I will not have to to the full number the next cycle. There is no need to panic. I just need to get into a consistent habit. More than half of this stuff is mental. It is a lot scarier to think about it all at once  than it is to just do it. Oh yeah, I need to buy a jump rope.
