The Perpetual Beginner: Want/Don't Want

http://perpetualbeginner.blogspot.com/2014/06/wantdont-want.html

Life's too short to specialize. Sunday, June 08, 2014. I leave for Okinawa in the morning. I've dreamed about this trip for literally years. I've worked on my Japanese, worked on my karate, spent lot of time, money, and energy to even be able to go on this trip. I'm not likely to get the opportunity again, and I don't want to miss it. But now I'm terribly torn about going. Deep breath. I'll post when I'm home again. See you all June 20th. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). One is because it is needful.

The Perpetual Beginner: November 2012

http://perpetualbeginner.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html

Life's too short to specialize. Friday, November 30, 2012. And now I get my life back! Sunday, November 04, 2012. Lennox Legacy and NaNo Begins! This time, I seem to be concentrating on different aspects of the plot, and I have pre-warning of my stubborn survivalist, so I have hopes of a clean run to the end. I even got in about five hand-written pages while I was on the road, which kept me on track for word count. Wish me luck as I plow into the middle sections in the next few days. The other is because...

The Perpetual Beginner: May 2014

http://perpetualbeginner.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

Life's too short to specialize. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. Not a lot of data available on PLN1 for renal cell carcinoma right now, but there's supposed to be a presentation at the American Society of Clinical Oncologists annual meeting next week, and the buzz is that it's very promising. Oh - and for anyone interested in the sort of oddball progression Rob is having, the keyword for searching turns out to be 'synchronous' - as in "Renal Cancer Synchronous Adrenal Metastases". There are apparently a whole...

The Perpetual Beginner: That was the week that was

http://perpetualbeginner.blogspot.com/2014/07/that-was-week-that-was.html

Life's too short to specialize. Saturday, July 26, 2014. That was the week that was. The upshot of all this? He had a virus, his immune system freaked out, and then the dehydration spiral got him. They sent him home rehydrated with an anti-nausea pill and some pain-killers (after much back and forth with Vanderbilt about which drugs won't interfere with the trial protocol). We did find out two interesting things though. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There are only two reasons to do anything. Theist...

Cookie Family Karate: July 2014

http://cookiefamilykarate.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Monday, 7 July 2014. Feels a bit like that round here, doesn't it? I can't believe it's been over a year since I posted on here. I feel a bit like an imposter on my own blog! What's that all about? It had a huge impact on my time in the dojo (which became pretty much non-existent after a while). I did manage to make it back to training for a few weeks before Christmas last year then my husband's work schedule had a dramatic change. He was working much further away from home and much longer hours mean...

Cookie Family Karate: June 2011

http://cookiefamilykarate.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 8 June 2011. Do You Want To Be A Black Belt? Following bow out at the senior classes Shihan usually takes a little time to give out any notices about upcoming events, to comment on how he thinks the class went and to generally talk about any points he feels need to be raised. Wow That gave me some serious pause of thought. My initial response was “Why would he even need to ask that? So then. Do I want to train for Black Belt? Immediately the answer for me is YES. Maybe the more important quest...

Cookie Family Karate: May 2013

http://cookiefamilykarate.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, 30 May 2013. Well, I finally made it. After almost 4 years of karate training I tested for and was awarded my 1st Dan Black Belt in Isami Ryu karate on Saturday 25th May. Needless to say with my big sister having just flown out for a holiday in Greece, the hospital visiting and the worry put something of a scupper in my training preparation. Thankfully I had already written my presentations (and kept on practising them to my steering wheel on many trips to and from the hospital car park! It was...

Cookie Family Karate: April 2012

http://cookiefamilykarate.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html

Tuesday, 3 April 2012. When Life Kicks You In The Teeth. For all of our martial arts training, there really is no defense against those times when life chooses to kick you in the teeth! We've had one of those moments around here lately. Sadly my Mum passed away suddenly on 14th February. She went from being in reasonably good health to not being with us any more in the space of around 36 hours. It was quite the rollercoaster (one I definitely wouldn't pay to ride again! And completely knocked me for six.
