Weekend progress, or lack of

On Saturday I watched my son receive his black belt. Each person gives a small acceptance speech. My 10 year old son said 2 things that were pretty funny and shows that he has a good mind for humor (like me, not his mother).

After that, I tested with 4 classmates for second degree black belt (second "dan"). That test went very well and I reviewed the video tape a few times. The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing, recuperating, and unwinding. The preparation and practice for this test took months. The test took just under 3 hours. I was exhausted and slept very well Saturday night.

So now I intend to spend more time working on my projects. Tonight the lawn needs care. This week I want to finish the office/music room remodel and installing edging along the walkway. I will get a new door for the office closet this evening (yep, giving up on the idea of fixing the broken door). I'd like to have the base of my friend's butterfly table disassembled, stripped, and prepped for new dowels.

Tae Kwon Do can take a back seat because it will be 3 more years to prepare for the third dan test.
