Hi guys & gals,
Please excuse my absense from the forum, I have been so busy of late I hardly have any time, what with the kids, extra holiday work & the Academy.
However, once the Easter holidays are over I will be getting back up to speed.
Just wanted you to know I havnt abandoned you (in case ya miss me) and that I have been poppin on from time to time & trying to keep up, just not posted much.
Anyway, keep up the good work everyone.
Stuart

LOL, or you could have just said ya got a new job! For what it's worth, I'd like to add to this thread as to why I haven't been posting much. I've recent aquired a job as a geotechnical engineer's assistant, which basically means I'm all over the place for 10 hours a day. It is HARD work. I have to lift up a 12kg (about 25 pound) weight up to a hight of 4 feet so that I can use a trigger mechanism to release that weight onto the soil surface.. this is done until a given compression is reached, upon which time the compression is analysed (different ground types compress at different rates) and I fill out a sheet recording results. I then have to analyse the soil to a depth of 2 metres. 12kg might not seem like much, but try lifting it 300 odd times a day and you really notice it... I'm absolutely b*ggered by the end of the day. From what I have heard it only takes about 3 months to get over this feeling... I should blo*dy hope so!!!! |

Well, then I should chime in too! MY WIFE got a new job (she HAD the difficult job of taking care of the kids). Now she works a 8-5 job and I do the daily routine with the kids, then go to the dojang almost every day to teach. When the weekends come, I try to catch up on sleep. He he-I could have just said my wife got a job huh?

I tell you what, during the easter holidays I taught 3 sessions a day a couple of times, witha small break in between the first two only. All roughly 2 to 2.5 hours long & by the last one, my brain was shot!
its mentally very exhausting!

Been a long while for me as well!
Gotta make more time for my fellow brothers and sisters!
Quick update from me-
Moved our class and school to the YMCA. Limited space, but everything else is very ideal. We are able to promote the IAOMAS through our recently designed certificates too! I need to email them to HQ to show them off!
All is well right now...just need to get more active around here!
Cheers,
Aaron Duke
