Should I stay or should I go?

 I have still been sick this week but was finally able to make it to class Wednesday and Thursday. We have all said it before, but I'll say it again. It's tough to be away from class. It's a balance sometimes when you are sick. You want to go to class, but you also want to recooperate and get better. You also do not want spread your illness. I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel guilty as I see several team members out sick this week. I was definitely sick last weekend during the banquet and all prepatory activities. But my balance was to drug myself up to minimize symptoms, avoid contact with as many people as possible and keep my germs to myself as much as possible, but still be able to commit to the team. To anyone who has been sick this week, my apologies if it came from me. If it weren't for the banquet, I would have stayed away. Simon also became sick this week and missed a fair bit of school. We kept him home from classes including an I Ho Chuan class. He was not happy at all and was trying very hard to negotiate terms to allow him to attend. I am glad he is passionate about Kung fu and the I Ho Chuan to put up a fight to attend. Again, it's about the team, sometimes you need to attend and sometimes you need to stay away.
I spent more time this week on cerebral activities. Developing form ideas, sitting down and figuring out plans for several of my goals. The good thing about being sick is, I have inadvertently started working on my weight loss goal.
My numbers are  not as good as I'd like for this week but are still climbing. I am happy because I finally hit a 200 PU day. Next goal is a 200 PU and SU day.

These are my accumulative numbers.

PU - 1580
SU -1450
KM -24
Kempo - 12
Chucks - 53
AOKs - 45

Well, that's some of what is going on in my head this week.

Thanks for reading.

Mike
