Oh no!

Color belt testing is tomorrow, so yesterday when I got home from class, I put my doboks in the washer. When I went to hang them up I noticed several blue dots on them. Note to self: be sure to always check the washer to make sure no stray pens, crayons, markers, or other such objects are left behind. I have heard that aerosol hairspray helps with ink spots, so I tried it and oxyclean and laundry detergent. I am on the fifth washing with high hopes for few remaining obvious spots. I guess we shall see at testing tomorrow. This in no way will cause me to revert to washing my kids clothes again, just to be more careful with my own.

Other than that, it was a great day for getting outside for some fresh air and miles with a coworker after work today. It has been a while since we have been available at the same time. I am looking forward to having time to join an after work yoga group as well. Still plugging away.
