My Glorae!!!!!!!!

I am sitting here after a very long day at work. Made even longer by the fact that we have had freezing rain for the pasty 24hrs. Ahhhh but I am home with my best buddy Benson, having a beer (me) and a rawhide bone with real peanutbutter crammed into the cracks (him). Nora Jones on the stereo and the world is right. It is almost March and we have yet to really see old man Winter!?! I really should be grateful, but it's quiet too quiet. I need to actually write down here that I need to be more patient with people. My mood lately has been very swingy. Suppose those are the joys of rapid swing Bi-polar. I have religiously doing 3-4 kata per night. Feels good actually and it still amazes me that when you mentally let go your body remembers how exactly to move. I have not touched base with my Karate for over 2 yrs. now. The death of my Japanese sensi Matsu hit me really hard. I lived with him in his village for over a year, in my teens to become a classically trained 3rd degree black belt. With my former job taking me to Japan almost bi-weekly, we stayed very close. But time heals all things, and full circle is how life is. 3 more months till you know who comes!!!!! Well I must fix dish washer and bring laundry up before the Mommy Bear comes home. So until nex time. Love yourself, others and celebrate!!! even the small things.
