Gracious I’ve become the party pooper of this blog. Let’s see here, what have I been doing aside from ‘resting’ all the time.
Well, for one thing I drove Grandson to Las Cruces so he can compete in the tournament. We were going whether I was on my death bed or not. I had frozen water on the back of my neck and oxygen stuck to my nose all the way down. Inconveniently, there’s very few potty places. Hahaha. Again I was sick with a fever and bronchitis at the time, I was coughing and hacking like a moron, but we made it.
We had fun, so to speak. I try not to get my illness in the way of his growing and succeeding his goals. We went for a walk there, and drove around to see places and get an idea where the tournament was to be happening. The next day, Grandson saw his former Master. The man apologized to Grandson for his behavior, and during the second match he asked if he could coach him for the last time. I utmost, gathered Grandson’s belongings and shoved it on over.
Gosh, coaching Grandson was the most nerve racking event, my hands were shaking. Even my photos came out fuzzy.. You see, you can yell at Grandson to do, or not to do.. He fights how he wants to, and you can see what he doesn’t need to be doing.. But he still does what he wants. The first round it seemed they were going so fast, they fought like tigers in a cage. All I saw them was chasing and running after each other trying to score headshots more. Grandson was tossing the boy on the floor and giving him headshots left and right. Like I said, it was the most nerve racking experience. Grandson won by one point. I could have fainted.
On the second match, there’s this boy we befriended. He is Hispanic, and such a sweetheart. He talked a lot, and said “You know, when you lose “YOU LOSE” there’s nothing to it, you just lose.” Well he lost to Grandson and came in Second. I wondered if he could honestly say to himself what he said to us all the way back to El Paso, TX.
I have to laugh, at his new Dojo, the boy he sparred with is from that dojang. They sparred once more in class, and Grandson wiped him all over the floor. The boy refuses to spar with Grandson since.
We found one of the best dojo for Tae Kwon Do for Grandson in Sandy, Utah. We thought about moving there, just for that purpose. For what we pay here, in Sandy.. We can afford 4-5 bedroom house with some acreage. Lol, what the heck? I would just like to live in a quiet neighborhood. I guess I’ve aged to be wanton something so simple.
I don’t think we have the funds to get my behind back in Tae Kwon Do, I love the sport. Maybe in December we can do it again. I was just thinking right now.. This is the month I started doing Christmas shopping. Well, I guess that’s when we use to have a full house, but now it’s just the three of us, so I think we are okay.
For awhile, maybe a month or so I have not called my mom. I get so tired of hearing negativity, and left it alone. I called her last two Sundays, it was a mistake. From where we left off, it continued. I hung up after I could hear my brother talking to her. He meant well, but mom got after him and zingzang the whole crap started all over again. So, I haven’t talked to her since. I am really not into it.
As far as Grandson’s parents, I haven’t got any news regarding the court preceding. I look on the website and nothing has gone forth. I don’t know, I think they are just going to leave it alone for now. Who knows?
At home, it’s the same. Grandpa has something wrong with his knee so he got something injected and now he has been home for a couple of weeks now. I have no idea what is going on, I think age is kicking his behind too. He is entitled to his disability from the military. He wants to go back to school and do journalism.. The truth. He said he was so sick of everyone lying and hiding behind their positions that there is no truth on the media. Umm, hello.. I want to walk safely to the mailbox? Lol. No, he has been wanting to do that since I’ve known him.

Grandson only
I have gone back to doing Taekwondo, then I got sick <again>. I have been away for a week now, and have been in the dumps for 3 weeks. I try and try. I lost a lot of weight.. I have to admit, that wears me out so I rest most of the time after the class.
I have been busy trying to find ways to make training fun all the time, but Grandson is most happy when we are doing the training together. With my memory problem, poomse are hard for me.. like now.. I don't remember them.
Nothing much at home, same stuff nothing new.
