helwenLooking at recent entries, I realized I'd said I was "psychically" active the past couple weeks and then went on to talk about kung fu. *sigh*
That should have read "physically". Rarrr
Speaking of which, I only observed class today, as the hip is still recovering from last Saturday, and the knees aren't exactly thrilled with me either. Good decision on my part, as the instructor today was doing a whole bunch of hopping in various ways as part of warm ups :P
Some rolls and various escapes, most of which I knew but it was nice to see them again. Couple new escapes today though. Although the lapel escape turns into a reversal, so kind of two things there.
I was watching one of the rolls closely, as we'd gotten do the part of person flipping the other person into the roll once a few months ago and I'd been wanting to see it again.
I did get to practice some of the escapes with another student -- she was just watching the first class and was going to be in the more advance class afterward, and offered to pair up with me just for that part, so we went outside to go through them a few times :)

Fitzw was active in the class :) He's been pretty amazing this week, in fact, since he's also been helping with haying, and unloading and stacking hundreds of bales this week. Around 200+ each day, the past three days at least, and earlier in the week too I think. I helped a little bit yesterday, just kind of knocking them down and pushing them over from one end of the wagon to the other mostly. They're heavier than the ones at the beginning of summer were...

Blue heron sitings all over town. Either we have more than one, or the one is covering a lot of territory...
