Adaptable

I was going to post this week about how I had changed my approach to completing my daily requirements. That by making slight adjustments I had continued on without a hiccup. Well that was last week and this is now. This week didn’t work out as I had planned and really left me tired and frustrated. So starting again tomorrow I have put together another approach to meet my requirements and still keep up my end of the work load around the house with the family. I guess all I can say is adaptability is key to overcoming any obstacle and that’s what keeps me searching for that perfect balance on all fronts. I am definitely excited to see how the next few weeks play out and now that the weather is getting so much nicer am ready to spend some time outside practising again. Oh and sleep is sooo overrated….

A new chapter

My family has officially doubled in size this past week. Nathan Thomas and Samuel Marcel were born late Friday March 23rd and this past week has felt like a blink, maybe a long blink but still. The boys are still in the hospital but doing great, hopefully home this week some time. Now the next chapter in our lives has begun. This was one of those unofficial accomplishments on my list for this year and can now check it off – what else could possibly change in our lives right? This week was what I call the real test for me now. I no longer dictate when I may have time to work on my forms, reps, etc. I will have to be creative to find time for my requirements throughout the days and push ahead. The home nurse must have thought I was nuts this past week pounding out push ups and sit ups in the basement while she attends to my wife upstairs. I can’t wait to see what the next few months have in store for us and live in the excitement that each new moment brings. With the new challenges on the horizon means it will all be more rewarding Sifu Bryant
