Honestly not doing the best. I’m overworking myself but I really don’t know how not to. With my schedule and all, covering everything is cutting into sleep. Which isn’t good.  And my ankle still isn’t healed, but I’m getting to the point where I can’t not practice everything. Especially kicks. If I don’t practice, I won’t be ready to test. If I don’t heal, I won’t be healed for the test. I’m wrestling with myself cause I really don’t know what would be best. Normally I would result to pushing myself harder, but that won’t help me here.
