Shaolin Do...

Did White through Green Belt material, sparred three rounds and spent the evening talking with a visitor, also named John.

Breathing, Stamina and Energy a little lower, but expected after all the time off and the cold weather.

Hope to have a great time this year! 
Hope everyone else does too!
God willing!  Smiley

Shaolin Do...

Did not go.  Was exhausted from work today.  Was running up and down all three levels most of the sort.  Did a LOT of emergency repair work.  Got some good compliments though on how fast I was moving and that I had the energy of two people.   Cheesy

I felt it when I got home.  Was a little nauseous too for some reason, so I called in.   Angry

Shaolin Do...

Did White through 2nd Brown Belt material, sparred two rounds and helped Dave with class some.  Snuck in Seven Star Sword (twice) and Table Top Sword when nobody was looking.   Roll Eyes

Breathing, Stamina and Energy all good.  Took some time to get motivated after taking a nap though.

Really wanted to stop by the W.C. Lounge for a Crave Case, but overcame the craving and went home settling for a lean ham and swiss sandwich and a bowl of popcorn.   Angry
