I had lifted weights on Sunday, and was PRETTY sore.  I did some shopping and got home around 4, so I had a light dinner, watched part of Collateral Damage, played my iPhone ap Cityville games obsessively, before crashing at 9 PM.<\/p>\n<p>Woke up at 4 This morning, which could have been worse.  Taught my two kindergarten classes.  First class was awesome but the second ones were slightly younger and wouldn&#8217;t settle down at all.  That was more of a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Then went to my nomal office and taught, and did an assessment.  <\/p>\n<p>After work, I hustled to the massage place &#8220;Relax Hands&#8221; and Miss Nara worked on my neck again!  SHE IS GOOD, and I&#8217;M SO Happy that I can make it in before they close officially at 9:30. \ud83d\ude00  YAY.  I&#8217;ve been spending a lot of money lately, but it&#8217;s on Christmas shopping&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m gonna lift weights tomorrow morning, work in the afternoon\/evening, and spar with Akano (only??!) at night.<\/p>\n<p>THURSDAY I&#8217;m LEAVING!
