Evas Green Belt

Eva has been working really hard in Krav Maga. Today she received her green belt. This is the last belt in the three month rotation. When she earns her brown belt she starts the six month rotation. I’ve seen her grow in her skill and confidence so much in the past year. She’s made friends in her classes. This Summer Eva went to morning classes with me and worked with the daughter of one of the women in my class. They became friends and do a great job working with each other. Her friend also pushes her to work harder in the class and you can see how much she has improved. She is very committed to her training and it shows. She’s always happy on Krav days and says that the dojo is her favorite place to be. She’s even gotten comfortable with her instructor’s humor. She was very intimidated at first but is no longer as timid. She gets to help demonstrate once in a while and no longer gets totally embarrassed about it. I am so excited to see how far she goes with this!

Decorating with Funko

Funko Wall

I have a lot of Funko Pop figures. The folks from Funko have been working with me and sending me some great figures for me to review and so many of these on this wall are from them. I have three in my possession now that I need to make videos about and then they will also go on the wall. Yes, I have been affixing them to the wall with command strips. This appears so be working out fairly well so far. A couple of my Transformers ones, not pictures, did fall down but I figured that I did not press the command strips down tightly enough so I opened each from the bottom and pressed down the command strips and then put the Pops back inside the boxes and they then stayed up. I’ll be adding to the wall a lot more as I go forward and even get some of my other Pops that have been put away for lack of room to display them.

I’m just not sure what to do with the ones that no longer have boxes. I didn’t start with keeping the boxes on them. I probably should have.
