Second Gear

Today we had Black Belt class with Master Opi.  I really enjoy whenever someone else teaches because it feels like you always learn something new and get a different perspective when it happens.  It's like finding a missing piece of the puzzle that was left in the box and now the picture starts to make just a little bit more sense.

On the way home from class we saw the fish vendor out by the hardware store in Harrisburg and stopped to see what he had for sale.  We bought a few things for dinner and took them home.  Before long it was time to pick up our eldest from work and then on to lunch.  This dietary challenge is making dining out difficult so we picked up the food and then went home.  After lunch we packed up some stuff for Goodwill and then eventually Habitat for Humanity.  Once we'd dropped everything off, it was on to Gibson Mill to look for some things for a project.  Then home to make dinner.  We don't normally eat a lot of fish but Gabe really knocked it out of the park with everything she made.

After dinner we finished up our physical requirements.  I'll probably be hurting tomorrow but I'm starting to feel like I'm getting closer to being back in form from our last Cycle.
