I made it through testing, but it was my worst testing ever. I will never again take a class in the morning of testing day. Just...ouch. Then we were surprised with the fact that they've bumped green belts up to the advanced class, and, as I'm now a green belt, I'll be learning the advanced material. I do not feel ready for that at all. (Usually purple or blue - the two above green - are considered advanced, but due to having too many students in the beginners classes, they're changing things up.) At least we have our classes in the mornings, still, where the class size is smaller already? (Okay, so I kinda feel spoiled with it - we get a lot more one-on-one attention than happens in the evening classes, for sure.) We may have Oldest Little P go over our beginners forms with us regularly so we can make sure we learn them right, since we didn't get as many cycles through them as he did.

Blue, your numbers are off. You should have 5 no matches, and it was day 6, not 3. Running totals are correct, though.

Thanks P. I must have been distracted by the 3 match

*cough* You put your match 2 as a match 3 this time *cough*

Also, Festival of Neggs will run April 5-21, wahoo! (Okay, so it starts the day after Easter, but still...)

Congrats on getting through and passing your test, P!

Day 10: 19k, so I guess that was match 2

Thanks P. Good grief. I need a vacation. Or sleep. Or a lobotomy. I think I might prefer the lobotomy. Maybe just put me down. Please.

Ugh.

Thanks, Siniri!

It's OK, Blue. But now your total is off. It should be 57,250. O.o We all have rough weeks.

I'm pretty wiped, too, still. Catching up on everything and getting back to normal has been rough this week, plus belt testing and all. So....a vacation may not fix it? I definitely need more sleep, though, too. Somehow my brain is functioning...just barely. Needs to be better, though. Maybe I'll aim to get to sleep early tonight. I could use the extra rest. At least my body doesn't ache quite so much today?

On a completely different note, someone is purposefully inflating codestones. I went to buy a Sho yesterday, and it was up near 40k! They're usually around 6k...so...yeah, I'm holding off on training temporarily. Buyer beware. Check JN if you're looking for codestones!

Hopefully the tally is correct. I finally did my hedges yesterday, using a new gas trimmer. Was both easier and harder all at the same time. Definitely faster, though. Used muscles that I almost never use, but somewhat less sore than expected today.

Sleep is good. Everyone should try it

Looks good now, Blue. New tools are fun. I used our new vacuum for the first time yesterday, and boy is it more powerful than the old one! Clearly, it was time for the old one to go. However, being more powerful, it took a little more to control, so I totally get the easier and harder bit.

I should be taking a nap. I've had trouble getting to sleep the last few nights (muscles so tense that I keep having random things pinched and then falling asleep and that's been keeping me up, trying to get comfortable) and I had to get up super early this morning. Instead, I'm getting a few little things done and helping Middle Little P when she needs it with a puzzle (that she's trying to do by herself for the most part) while Mr. P is playing games with the boys.

...Sho's have dropped back down to 32.5k. A few more days, and maybe they'll be back to normal?

Ugh. Sho's are still around 31k. Of course, I've won none in the BD. I need a whopping one to train, but I'm still not paying so much for them when they're usually cheaper. I've even been spinning the WOMon to try and get one with no success. (Also, the revised WOMon is kinda freaky, as towards the end it slows down, changes direction abruptly, and then speeds back up again.)
Okay, seriously, I could afford easily to pay the extra but it's the principle of the fact that they've been intentionally inflated that is keeping me from buying any at this price. I restocked on all the other types, but I refuse to buy something purposefully inflated when I'm not in a hurry to train. I've finally almost caught her HP up with what her level allows, and I'm not even sure why I'm bothering on that as she's got more HP than she needs as is, but...I guess it'd be nice to get to the next round number.
...these artificial inflations are just about as annoying as the people flooding the money tree with 6np donations. But I digress.

Blue, I'm glad you still got the BLB, though! Better to get it than not!

I wonder if I should dump all of my Sho 'Stones. Nah. I generally just chuck 'em into my SDB.

Over the past few days, I got 2 matches each day except for one, which had no matches. (I.e. 19k * (n - 1) + 18k)

Shos dropped to 26k. Starting to get back down now. If you want to profit off them, there's still a chance, but I wouldn't stock more than 1 or 2 at a time.

I am also tired and sore. Yesterday was ouchies.
