All day I have been debating with myself about going to tae kwan do tonight. ugh! I will go, of that you can be sure. I have to take kota anyway. I doubt if I will do all 4 nights as kota does. In the beginning I think I will go with two classes a week. At least until I get more used to it.

I had to run out today to the grocery store. I noticed there seemed to be more traffic on my road. Not a good sign. Yep, I got to the highway and the northbound side is backed up as far as the eye can see. I had to cross to the southbound side so I thought it would be fairly easy as they were stopped. I had my turn signal on to turn left so no one thought I was trying to jump in line. Still people would not leave a gap for me. So I just started across. I mean they were going less than 5 mph! Stupid tourists! They should have gone home yesterday. Coming home I took a different route to avoid sitting in traffic.

Might take a short nap before its time to go to class. lol

I hate when people won't even let you in, like they're going to loose something by extending a little kindness... Uggggggg

it was last night and it was great! and I am not sore today! even though we had to pushups. they were picking on my last night, saying we had to do more pushups to make me stronger.

I think if it were me I would take a bit slower pace at first.

I had so much fun last night! I am so glad I went! they really work with the new people to make sure they are doing things right to prevent injury. they also like to pick on me about pushups!

Tourist are only good for one thing,the economy.I hate rude drivers but just deal with it.With road rage it's better to just let them cut you off,especially in South Florida.Hope you get some kicking in tonight.Laurie

rude drivers are the worse! they are so afraid someone will get ahead of them! I usually just let them go too. it is not worth getting all worked up about.
I had a really good class last night!

What else helps, is if you really feel like not taking part, take your Gi with you anyway and leave it n the car, sometimes you feel alright when your there. You can always change your mind and change later.

I've been meaning to ask you, what color belt are you?

reply by elkhound on July 7, 2008 2:11 PM ()

Tell you what, there must be something in the weather because I didn't feel up to training tonight. I did it though but still didn't feel any better for doing it, the only thing I gained was not having to feel guilty cause I didn't which has happened in to past. I focussed on myself, fought my way through regardless, I didn't let myself give up. Fight the fatigue unless you feel like passing out. Thats what I do. Sometimes aswell I have done half a class then asked to leave, but I know I tried, give my all.

comment by lynnie on July 7, 2008 2:05 PM ()

thats what I am going to do, take class and see how I feel. been battling the monthlies this weekend and it has left me feeling very drained. who knows, it might just recharge me.

reply by elkhound on July 7, 2008 2:06 PM ()

yeah I don't blame ya for not going as often as Kota...
Have fun!!!
P.S. I hate traffic.

comment by kristilyn3 on July 7, 2008 1:58 PM ()

found out they are doing work on the highway. I think they should do it at night when it does not interfere with traffic. it is back up for miles!

reply by elkhound on July 7, 2008 2:03 PM ()

You need to vent.
