Another Day at the office!


Woke up! Great start!
As usual, I stepped onto my home-mat at 9:00 am and began my usual three private classes. I enjoy these sessions – as much as do my students. It is a chance for me to try out a new teaching technique or new training idea - always fun.
It’s 11:15am – I am all done with my private classes. My wife makes me a small snack – we chat for a bit and then head of to the pool at 12 noon. 25 laps later – I switch off my waterproof MP3 player, take a shower and we head back home. It’s always tough trying to keep up with Melissa in the pool – she is a gun swimmer!
At home she makes some lunch while I attend to the half dozen odd e-mails that have arrived since clearing out my inbox at 8:30 this morning. We eat lunch while watching a bit of TV – I multi-task by sketching out my seminar plans for this weekend (I am heading interstate for Friday and Saturday – running four sessions).
Mide afternoon, time to head out and pick up my boy Felix from school. Feed him a snack and see him off to training (in the kids class with Melissa). I stay home and complete a few tasks online – sign a book order that came in - package it and drop it into Melissa’s out-tray. Another quick snack, and it’s time to pack my own bag for training. Just time to sit down and rite this blog before I head out to teach the two evening classes at my school. Tonight I have novice BJJ and advanced MMA. Fun classes!
Melissa will beat me home, cook dinner (she’s a great cook – and does the work of five men) and prepare Felix for bed. I’ll be home by 8:20pm –when I’ll have a chance to say goodnight to Felix, then sit down and answer a couple more e-mails before tucking into dinner and chatting with my wife.
Time for a couple of hours of relaxing before hitting the sack and repeating the same routine tomorrow; another day in the office – another great day!
