Not much to say for this week. Feels like the same old, same old. I have been expecting greater results that I have not yet seen though. Between my job and my workouts, not to say the rest of my daily abligations, I feel somewhat like my life is getting monotonous.
I do have to say though, that my appreciation for my forms is growing everyday. A form that I have done over and over again in the many years since I have learned it, is actually becoming quite a joy to practice. I set a number of times that I will do that form, but usually do more than that. The more I do it, the more intense I get, and the more real it becomes. This has been my focus this week.

- My kids and the strong bond we share, are the most important things to me. Over the years I've done many things. I attained my certification for a fitness instructor and taught in many areas such as kickboxing, circuit training, pilates, African dance, hatha and ashtanga yoga. I have received my certification for a Special Needs Educational assistant. This allowed me to work with a group of wonderful kids in a Positive Development Program at an inner city school in Edmonton. Today, I am an area supervisor for a retail home renovation store. I achieved my certification as a belayer in top rope rock climbing, and also as a lead climber. I attained my black belt in 2004. There is an excitement and feeling of self sustaining when I grow a garden, collect wild berries, then can a whole winters supply of juices, jams, sauces, syrups, fruits, ketchups, and salsas. I am very passionate about the outdoors, and my big dream of all times is to one day live out in the mountains with nothing but the wilderness at my doorstep. I would hike, fish, x country ski, snow shoe, kayak, mountain bike, rock climb, practice kung fu on top of a mountain, and grow a huge garden in the summer.
