Back from my daughters (6.5 y/o) first judo competition
a rollercoaster ride!
First fight she was like a deer in the head lights, used to gentle club practice. This was 4 r34Lz!!
FIGHT 1:she was taken down and into kesagatame. She never gave up and fought for her opponants legs the whole time. She lost the fight came over to me shed a few tears and we discussed the fight
FIGHT 2:This time she knew the level of intensity to expect and came out fighting. After a few incomplete osotogaris she got ippon with another osotogari. Nice one
FIGHT 3:Her opponant got in straight away with a lovely tai otoshi for ippon in the first 20 seconds (splat)
Got a medal and a goodie bag, and is looking forward to the next competition, and showing off her medal at schooland and at club training
Yay, finally got round to getting a new battery for my cycle computer! Grrrrr, I'd forgotten that the speed/distance monitor is on the front wheel of my bike so doesn't work when my bike is up on the trainer (I can only get RPM from the crank magnet) and Grrrr to not being able to find the heart rate monitor that goes with it (I've got the strap, I just need the chest piece - and I have a horrible feeling that's going to need a battery as well).
1) will it cost more than a pound a minute to call this lady back?
2) is said lady made out of polyurethane or any similar material?
3) does the body of said lady look anything like the appendage that one may find located on the end of one's upper limbs?
If your answer is NO to all these questions, then congratulations!
If your answer is YES to any or all* of these questions, then congratulations!
*If yes to all, still congratulations but perhaps it may be an idea to get out once in a while. I hear parks are lovely in Spring...
I got my painting Mojo back!! Barely done any art for a few months - work had sucked the creative out of me. But over the weekend I've nearly completed a triple canvas scene and already got an idea for my next two pieces. I'm happy as a monkey with a banana.
Managed to take my antidepressants today.. Been unable to since I was ill Friday (I know I keep going on about that but so much of what's annoying me since is related to it lol) and I think the nausea I feel now is withdrawals from it. Was a challenge but hopefully it'll get easier from here :s
Got some new protein flavours from Myprotein today. Tried Banoffee (sweeter than expected, might better with water, usually take it with whole milk), Mocha to try later in week. Also bought some creatine, not sure how much 5g is though, a teaspoon or half? Only added half.
