This last week was a doozy. From absolute disbelief at my job to an injury that was unlike no other I have ever had to some great bonding time with my family to just being thankful to make it to the next week without anything else piling on top of the chaos.
I will skip the work talk, it doesn't have a PG rating so it does not belong in this blog, I will write another private one to vent and work my way through that particular dung heap.
Family time. We bought some used wood last week and after removing all the old nails and hazards, we (Deb, Kody and I) have it sanded, stained and ready for building. We are building a pergola in the backyard after twenty years of procrastination. I am so excited to get this done as it has been on my "to do" list since we has this house built in 2003. But an opportunity came along (cheap good wood) that we couldn't pass up, so we didn't. This project will test all my skills and I look forward to every second of it.
And last but not least, my newest injury. You have all heard me whine about my left shoulder and the pains it brings me. Well get ready, I have now hurt the other shoulder even worse so now I will be whining about both! Seriously though, wow, something so simple as showing a "long" punch to someone and POP! I could tell instantly that something was not right at all. Sucks getting old. So my training again has taken another detour. Anything to do with my shoulders has been interesting. As of today, I feel 50/50 in my shoulders. So I modify. My forms look comical but I am focusing on foot placement, limiting my arms but still keeping them engaged. Still trying to keep my six harmonies in mind whilst I modify to accommodate my current limitations.
And finally a big shout out to Kody for covering for me this last week. It was a huge relief knowing he was there to pick up my slack. I owe you kiddo, big time.
