It's been a while since I've had a chance to blog about anything...so I'm just going to do a bit of an update on everything I can think of.

I didn't get to go to the ITA Spring Festival in Mobile, AL this past weekend. I'm kinda bummed out about that, since my instructor tested for her 5th Degree Black Belt. She'll find out in a couple of weeks whether she passed or no changed.

A friend of mine and her kids did get to go, though. She said she didn't win anything, but her daughter brought back 3rd in forms and her son brought back 2nd in forms and sparring. She's so proud of them. I am, too. They're great kids.

There was an upside to not making the tournament, though. I got to spend the weekend with my grandkids (& my daughter and son-in-law, too.) It was a very good thing I did because they're leaving for Pennsylvania tomorrow. They'll be there for the next 3 years. After that, who knows where they'll be sent. My son-in-law is in the army, so they go where they're told. They plan on coming back to Texas for Christmas or on leave from time to time & maybe I'll be able to go out there once in a while. Who knows?

As for my house, it's been almost 3 weeks since any work has been done on it. Until today...the new roof has been started on. The bathroom/laundry room extension has a new roof now. The rest of the house is supposed to have it's new roof sometime this week as well. I'm learning not to hold my breath, though. I have no idea when the wiring & plumbing & drywall are supposed to be done. Time will tell.

In the meantime, my hubby & I keep on keeping on. In amongst all the chaos, we still have all our TKD related activities to keep us busy. If it weren't for martial arts, I doubt I'd have any grip on sanity (whatever that is...) at all.
