Ughhhhh…. I had a cough for about a week before my trip, which was March 1st. On my trip, I was fine, no cough, no congestion. I was able to dive and everything was great. Then I got home and the next day the cough came back. I am not sure if its allergies or […]
I received an email at work the other day about a mama kitty with a baby. I went to the location and there were four adult cats and four kittens (one had passed). I was able to grab the remaining three kittens and transported them to A-Pal for evaluation and placement with a foster family […]
I have been waking up between 4-430 for a few weeks now. The first week wasn’t too bad. Week two and three, I was hating life. This is week four, and I finally feel like my body has adjusted to waking up early. I get to the gym by 5 and get my workout knocked […]

Round 2: Last year I started this challenge for the very name, CHALLENGE. And a challenge it was. I had a few setbacks due to injuries, sickness, and lack of time management. I did learn a lot about myself during the journey. I am taking on this challenge again this year with a clearer understanding […]
My Black Belt test is coming up really soon on January 11th. There isn’t really much I can do to prepare for doing kata and sparring in front of a couple hundred people but practicing kata and working on my cardio. I’ve been working with my personal trainer on preparing my stamina for the test […]
