So I went to San Sou tonight. It was great! We did so many different drills and some sparring too. I didn't feel intimidated at all! It's funny how you can build up a fear of something in you mind and then you actually go and check it out and it's completely different.
I think a big part of my fear was being able to keep up physically. I'm getting my body back to health, but I always worry that something will happen to set me back. When I first came back and we sparred in the black belt class, I got so sick afterwards. I didn't know it at the time, but I had a really bad internal infection and pushing it in sparring really weakened my system. Since then I've been so nervous. But tonight I pushed it hard and I'm ok.
I think as time goes on I'll be less and less worried about health stuff. Already I'm not as scared of getting sick again. I think it just takes time.
Stupid being sick!
Stupid being scared of being sick!
But ya, San Sou was super fun...you were right Sifu Lindstrum!
Acts of kindness: Gave my cat extra pets, put the bar on the conveyer for the lady at the grocery, helped unload gear from the trailer, made dinner.
Today I consumed: half a bagel with cream cheese, a bowl of macaroni, some bread with hummas, 3 tacos with all the fixin's, 4 mini chocolate chip cookies and a yogurt cup. I drank a cup of coffee, 3 cups of tea and 7 glasses of water.

Good for you Sifu. I signed up a while ago but haven't been able to make it yet. I see some light at the end of the project soon and will get to class myself. See you there
My husband mentioned that you had the BIGGEST smile on your face while you were kicking his butt. Good job!
Thanks for the laugh
I had fun sparring with you. And you have one of the best movements and flow I've seen while sparring. I'm hoping to keep seeing you in class.
