I'm Still Here


 I’m feeling a little scrambled these days.  Last year seemed clear.  I knew what I wanted, what I had to do and was determined to get there.  After a very scheduled and full year, I had the great idea that it would be easy to just continue on with the momentum.  However, as the Year of the Dragon came to an end and the Year of the Snake began, my schedule and commitments changed.  With an entire family involved in a number of activities along with other family and community commitments and then the start of a new business,  I have had a hard time being able to make some classes and almost all of the demo practices.  With work being unpredictable and sometimes last minute, I haven’t been able to commit myself and don’t feel good signing up for things that I can’t guarantee I will be there for.  I am very much the type of girl who HATES signing up for something, only to have to say “sorry, but I can’t make it after all.”  Add in some physical aches and pains, and things seem a little chaotic at times. 

I still know what I want and where I want to be with my training and with life, it just seems that my path to reach my goals continually needs to be adjusted and altered.  I thrive in a scheduled and planned environment.  I like having a plan and love being able to cross things off my never ending list.  I am having to work really hard in adjusting my mindset and my willingness to roll with the punches. 

I just want to let the rest of the team know that I haven’t fallen off the radar.  Although I feel disconnected at times with not being able to be available for demos at this point, I’m still around and am still committed.  I do hope that things sometime soon offer some kind of scheduled life again, but until then I’ll do the best I can.
