Karate

Shihan Di Tony Fournier and me Speaking of it earlier, my teacher's wife said to the fact that he was having a birthday. So I asked how old and he said he was gonna be 50. I'm like really??? I thought he was around my age, not that his way older , since he has one daughter in college I figured at most 5 years older than me. I'm like thats cool-cause he's in awesome shape. I also have a fellow student who said she was turning 50. She looks awesome and way younger for her age. So I can say for some-Karate makes you younger. Wanna see my school?

Pasta Machine

I bought a pasty machine for making better polymer clay jewelry. I really like polymer clay but I always wait on buying stuff for a hobby until I know I really like it. Then I appreciate it more cause I know more about it too. Hell, it took me 7 years to buy a really new , nice Gi for Karate.

Compleat Belly Dancer

I borrowed this book from the library. Its from 1973. I haven't read it yet but its mostly an instructional book. I love the pictures in it but its too bad they don't say who are the gals in the pics. I am assuming its the authors but theirs two of them.
