enjoying the moment

In true recycle, reuse fashion, I have found a new use for my broken spear; it will now proudly be our pirate flag pole! Hopefully the image comes across! Its been a great weekend, doing yard work, kids have been swimming, and not going too far at all. Normally this would drive me CRAZY, as I always want to be out and about, but this weekend it just seemed right. Its been a struggle lately to concentrate on training for black belt, and all that goes into it. Mostly because part of my challenge to myself this year is to be more intune with myself and focus on the mental, emotional and spiritual, but all the blackbelt stuff says train! Train hard! And while its mostly physical, somedays my body is telling me to get real. Oh well. This weekend was still physical--yard work is starting to get harder!--but nice for a break from regular training. Nice to concentrate on being present, on the moment with my family instead of worrying about anything else. As Shakespeare says, All may yet be very well.
