It's good to be back

So all is well once again! I am super excited about feeling pretty much 100% again. After being out of classes for a week I was going through some serious kung fu withdrawal. The first class I was back when we bowed in, I actually got a bit of an adrenaline rush. Makes me realize how much kung fu really means to me. A few times some of the kids from the classes I am usually in came up to me on the sidelines and asked if I was coming into class today, it was really nice, I guess sometimes you don't really know if you make much of a difference being in there so that was really cool.
The annual kwoon clean up was this weekend, and I've never been around to help before, it was a lot of fun actually. It's nice to be a part of the reason things look good around the school. My kids had tons of fun too, more from playing in the mud puddles from washing the siding than anything. I am so glad they are a part of such a great group of people with countless amazing role models for them.
On a completely different topic, the weather is finally nice enough to ride my motorcycle and it's been such a blast. I think the reason I enjoy it so much is that when I have my helmet on and my hair is flying around in the wind, I'm kind of anonymous. I'm not thinking of a million and one things, I'm not being a mom or a wife or anything, I'm just me and I'm the only one who knows who I am. Sometimes after a crazy day, going for a ride is just what I need to clear my head, it's kind of like meditating. I think we all need something like that once in awhile.
Its good to be back!
