Learning to trust myself II

[heatherg]

Yeah, apparently emotions manifest themselves physically sometimes and maybe the release is occasionally for physical relief which is why we don't see it coming?

Did it feel good letting it out?

Not this time. Mostly it just scared me because I typically know what I'm upset about. This time I had no specifics. It could have been just frustration b/c I was being pushed farther than I felt comfortable with in karate class. Karate definitely takes me out of my comfort zone. I am not used to hitting people and if I accidentally do, I would say I'm sorry. People don't say I'm sorry at the dojo. They ask if you're alright and then you keep going. I'm not a tough girl, I'm a girly girl and this stuff doesn't come at all natural to me. But I'm getting it and some days I even feel like I'm ok at it, lol.

Maybe that is how we can achieve balance. Ride a rollercoaster to balance our rollercoaster life. Nahhhhhhh.

Chicken, lol!!! I can't say I feel more balanced today, but it was a blast. Apollo's Chariot is the new coaster this year, and it was awesome!! My best (scariest) memory of being on a coaster is the Magnum in Cedar Point in Ohio. Nothing has ever come close to the memory of that climb and drop. Except Apollo's Chariot. It was still a couple hundred feel smaller than the magnum and about 10 mph slower, but it was a close second!!
S4 loved the roller coaster he went on...The Big Bad Wolf. I am surprised he didn't cry or anything, the coaster had more drops and turns than I remembered, but he was totally fine with it. But he wouldn't go on one of the water rides b/c he was afraid of getting his face wet, go figure, lol. It was a fun day and the kids had a blast. H and I had a little bonding time too b/c we went on a couple rides by ourselves, as his family aren't huge coaster fans.

Is that how you spell lugi?

I don't know, but after a double take, I knew what you meant, lol.

As always, thanks for stopping by guys.
