At Last!

[Ronin Moose]

I know I don't post or comment too often on MT, but I do enjoy it every day. I just had to share my incredible day with you nice people - I was awarded my 1st Black today. 5 1/2 years, 2 surgeries and a brush with death (pneumonia last year), I wondered when I'd see the finish line. Now I realize it is not a finish line, just a marker for the day, on the path toward what comes next. I am blessed with an excellent instructor and wonderful friends in the studio, and I wanted to share that, as well as thank you all for your support in the past.
