Rocky Week
No C5k workouts this week. Did stretches and yoga but things were getting worse. My left leg felt like it was burning… even when lying down. It had been a month since coming off the Neurontin. And I was still needing up to 2400mg of ibuprofen a day to keep the pain manageable. So I [...]

A Full Day
Today I tried to get out and get as much done as I could. If I’m going to have to live with this pain for a while, I might as well live and get out there. Took Sam to get his hair cut, stopped by Petco, took us out to lunch, took the kids skating. [...]

Maybe This Way…
Okay. Trying posting from my iPhone thru Posterous to my WordPress blog… If the picture shows up, you’ll see a picture of Jess who was very proud of the words she spelled today. We’ll do more tomorrow. By way of review I was thinking to have her glue the word strips to a paper. Okay, [...]

Rambling Journal entry
Since Sam and I are trying to get in the habit of journaling I thought I’d type something quick before jumping in bed. Hope it all makes sense and there aren’t too many typos. LOL! Going camping this weekend with the dojo. Lots to do tomorrow to get ready. We’re all excited. Bob does Hospital [...]
Panther Practice
Last night was a good practice. After the kids, Sensei worked with the adults. Which was me… aaaand 3 black belts. I need to work on the low stances in fukyugata ichi and my turns into them. Also need to look a little more intense during presentation. I’m coming up neutral. That’s not bad, but [...]
Latin and Pancakes
I finally picked up a copy of Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrara and it has shed some revealing light… I’m not doing an effective job teaching Latin. :\ Or not thoroughly according to Sam’s worksheet answers. But if you have him translate the chapter in the book, he can do a pretty good job of [...]
