16 of 52 Juggling Act

So as usual I am late with this posting, my diet posting is behind as well.  Honestly I feel like a juggler on a high wire.  I get steady and I am tossing situps, pushups, tai chi broadsword, the tei hua form, journalling, eating right, etc and they are just flowing nicely then, work gets busy (jiggles the wire) my mom gets sick, (jiggles the wire), or for example dragon/lion dancing practice gets added to the items to be juggled list ... oops! Dropped that one!  I do not seem to have enough hands, time or skill to juggle all these things while balancing on a high wire. 

So today I am very frustrated with myself and with all the commitments and responsibilties that I am dropping, and failing to accomplish/complete.  I hate disappointing myself and other people.

15 of 52 July long weekend

To continue ... the July long weekend is a tough place to start diet tracking online although I did stick to the portions limits I can't say I ate healthy, just well.

So in the last few days I have heard from several people that my husband and I constantly interrupt each other.  How rude on both our parts!   So I will be concious of this and note in my acts of kindness for the next little while the opportunities to NOT interrupt his stories or talk over him when I think he is taking to long to get to the point.   Never realized I was doing this I just thought HE was rude ... its all a matter of perspective I guess.  

Enjoyed my opportunity to participate in the demo,  kind of scary but I didn't embarras myself or Silent River Kung Fu. 

Was in the parade as the back end of a lion which was fun but I was behind Sihing Chesel and he has really long legs so I think our lion looked a little funny with big long strides in the front and frantic catch up steps in the rear. Oh well it was a good time and everyone involved was really great!
