Daily Horoscope – May 6, 2006
Interesting… this was my horoscope for May 6, 2006. “Creative projects, perhaps involving writing or speaking, might take up a lot of your time today, C. J.. You could well find yourself channeling not only your mind, but your very being into your work. You’ll probably be so caught up in what you’re doing that…

Novel Time
MM, A while back, I posted that I was reading Robert Jordan’s The Wheel of Time series. I finally got around to finishing book three, The Dragon Reborn. Interesting books. Captivating. I just can’t believe there are eleven books in the series so far, at least three of which consist of more than 900 pages.…

Training update – May 5 and 6, 2006
Friday, May 5 Nathan and I went to the gym. For some reason the weather was making me feel gloomy, and though I wanted to stay home, I went to the gym anyway. We did our usual exercises, but because the gym closes at 9 p.m. on Fridays we did not have time for the…

Monkey with a Death Wish video
MM, This is too cute – watch the monkey taunt the tiger cubs. Reminds me of my cats. Aren’t all felines the same – big or small? (If the video doesn’t work, check out the link Monkey with a Death Wish.) Enjoy. Smile. BB, Cassandrah Your local feline owner

Training update – May 2, 2006
MM, I missed gumdo class, but made it in time for taekwondo class. I can’t believe there is now only nine weeks two days left until the 10k run and the black belt test. Eek! I really need to get some more training time in. Official black belt test training starts on Saturday. Every weekend…

New TV and Training Upate – May 1, 2006
MM, I bought a new TV on Thursday and spent most of the weekend enjoying the LCD screen – TV just looks much more pretty, even the boring shows. Ah, well, wasted no time in renting some good movies to watch on it – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and King Kong. So,…

Two Mile Run – April 26, 2006
MM, I decided to do a two-mile run today. With less than eleven weeks left to go for the 10k, I thought I should increase the distance and thereby, increase my endurance. Basically, I ran the normal one mile route and then ran back. My time 17 minutes 38 seconds (8 minutes 43 seconds for…

Street Running and Gym Day – April 25, 2006
MM, After all the gumdo training last week, I decided to take a few days off and let my body recover. (I managed to get some more work done on my reiki manuals and curriculum.) Today, I felt I needed the running and the gym more than the do jang. So, Nathan and I headed…

Countdown to 10k and Black Belt Test – 11 weeks left
MM, My gumdo test was yesterday. Yay, I’m a green belt now, and I get to learn some new patterns. I ended up taking class first and then we did the test right after class. I was tired, but quite happy to have that over with. I didn’t go to the do jang today. I…

Countdown to 10k and Black Belt Test – 11 weeks 1 day
MM, I managed to get to the do jang Thursday for gumdo and taekwondo class. I was tired though. I got about four hours sleep. Since it was Thursday, we did a load of speed kicking for taekwondo. My legs felt so heavy for some reason. Probably just recovering from all the exercise this week.…
