Hi,
I am so excited Ebony started Tae Kown Do today.
God love her she has been asking to go to Tae Kwon Do ever since she saw my trophy that i got when I trained, and thats since she was 3.
She nagged me last year to join her up, but at the tender age of 5 I thought it would be best if I waited till she was that just a little bit older.
We today was the day, her first lesson, by a instructor that I trained with when I was younger, it made me laugh, as the the last time I saw him he was a knee high to a grass hopper, tender age of 9. Now he is a grown man, in a way it made me feel old lol.
The sweetest part is that he still remembered me!!! Not to mention when I got a phone call from my master in regards to Ebony Joining up, he didnt recognise my name until I told him my maiden name. Then he remembered straight away.
Apart from how are you, I got so when are you comming back to training? then he realed off where training was held at and what time etc etc.
I laughed and said I want to get Ebony in first and see how she goes, as always children come first.
I would love to get back into it, its a matter of finding time, ahhh life was a bit easier when you are a teenager, there seemed to be more time back then , then there is now???
Now its all rush rush do this do that get this done get that organised etc etc.
I feel I dont have enough time as it is?? between work, running a house, organising my daughter aughh I feel like I am stealing time just to get onto my pc to check emails and relax on minti.
Look at the time already its 11.53pm, ha so much for the idea of going to bed at a reasonable hour tonight, I have work early in the morning, I wake up every morning thinking oh why do I do this to myself?
But as per usual time is a theif and it slips away from you, before you know it bam there goes that hour.
ok now getting back to what I was talking about, sorry about that I got a bit carried away there, so, Ebony had her first lesson today, she went really well. They went over time today so I got to see her in action for 15 mins before it ended.
She was so excited, she came home and we practiced the new moves that she had learn't. I have my kick bag still from all those years ago, I just couldnt part with it, tae kwon do what such a huge part of my life and it was the best thing that I ever did. Even though it was the most stressing and distressing part of my life, Tae Kwon Do was my outlet it was my escape. It was a place where I could be me. I bet you are thinking so when are you going to go back Jennifer?? I will go back, I just don't know when.
Anyway tomorrow I can't wait till Ebony gets home I am going to get the bag out and practice with her, its going to be so much fun.
Getting back to my day, Not only did this day get off to a late start, late waking up, late getting to school, Ebony also had swimming lessons to do today.
So after school there was a mad dash for the shops for a few things then a mad dash to swimming lessons thankfully we werent late for them, i spose that was one thing we were actually early for lol, then come home cook dinner. Just as I finished my dinner my next appointment arrived.
See my life never stops. Lol I feel I hit the ground running everyday.
Tomorrow is going to be just as hectic we are down to one car at the moment, So Mark is going to take me to and from work, just in case in the meantime he needs the car for a call out to fix someones computer. I get back enough time to set up for my next massage and wait till Ebony gets off the bus. Do a Massage then I will have spare time to hold the kick bag for Ebony. Get dinner ready and do the cycle all over again.
yay the joys of life, My mother warned me that my life will never be the same after having children, and she is so incredibly right, she forgot to mention to me that time goes that extra fast.
Anyway I have to head off now,
Thank you for reading and have a wonderful night
