Keep Calm and Kick On

On Monday night, after months of preparing, hard work, conditioning and endless hours in the dojo...
I got my Red Brown Belt!
I was so nervous for this test.  I had been preparing and practicing countless hours weeks before the testing date, but one week before the test I had the worst run of bad luck!  
I had to miss about a week of class because of our foundation issues, and then I got sick.  I was so worried about my conditioning.  I started feeling better on Sunday, so I spent the whole day just working on my kicks, and my katas.
I lost points due to some of my stances in my katas not being deep enough.  I even felt it during my katas, but it was complete fatique due to me missing a week of workouts before the test.  
Next time I'll be taking my Vitamin C before the test so I can make my stances the lowest they have ever been!
Now I only have Brown and Red Black before my Black Belt!
I'm already nervous for those tests!
I guess I just have to keep telling myself:

Have a Happy Thursday everyone!

Hanging Out at the Garden Party- A Taste Test of Sorts

I was feeling the need to do this week's taste test a bit differently.
So without further ado, I give you:

Hanging Out at the Garden Party
A taste test of beautiful garden parties and their lovely hanging whimsy.

A Fantasy in the Grove

Magic on the Patio
Pom Pom Love

Literary Musings

Beautiful Blue

Tin Can Romance

Hanging Vase Magic

Hanging Basket Beauty

Lantern Love

Basket Whimsy

All of these incredibly beautiful outdoor parties make me want to throw my own!  My head is now swimming with ideas...I'll get back to you on whether or not any of them actually find their way to the metaphorical shore :)

Enjoy your Tuesdays everyone!
