That last kick was pretty cool.

Does look like shes over extended on the height and can't get much power in it
?
Not so much power as shes not kicking the center of the board/coaches hand, so it's much harder to break. I like seeing her do it, but I don't want to make it a regular event we do. Those boards are $10 each. We have plastic practice ones, but we've got to buy them for the competitions.

My wife just totaled up everything we have spent on Taekwondo in the last year and it was $5,000. So much for thinking it would be a cheap sport. She loves it and since she is home schooled it's majorty socializing we do.

My long day yesterday. Install and wire 3 can lights, install new kitchen sink, finish front landscaping and reseed yard areas.
Roni painted two rooms herself.

We're almost done. Kids move in Labor Day weekend.

Got a heavy shower at end of day, and this Rainbow showed up. Nice way to finish the day.

I'd say it was a long day Tom. With everything else going on around here I was lucky to get the kitchen sink done in a day

So, talking to a customer today about what my plans are after I retire, we somehow got to the subject of grandkids and candy, and how my wife inherited her Dads candy dish, so we'll fill that for the grandkiddos. My customer asks me if we have an old fridge in the garage? "Uh, yes we do", I reply. He says, "Fill the icemaker with M&Ms, that way they can self-serve".

Genius.

Now I have to ditch my old shop fridge and find one with an ice maker!

How does that work if it's got the crushed ice button? ? If you put peanuts in there will it make peanut butter? ?
