Today... all I can say is that I'm here. Last night went well for training I think. Although there is that one person who tried to take off my baby's head... hmmm can anyone say "shank" lol. There are all sorts of people you meet in wrestling. Sometimes it's hard to see until to get deeper in it. Right now the Mr. is getting to knwo who's who and who they are tied to so as not to step on anyones toes or make any enemies.
SO why do people try to do their best to hurt you in the ring on top of it's training so you do everything in slow motion at first and not full steam. hmmmm, I wonder. SO we have to sit and watch and wait although really in the ring it doesn't matter if you don't get along, hell even if you hate the person. Persoanl difference aside you will respect each other and work together. I do however wonder if you choose not to work with someone how much work you will actually get? Probably not much.
So I will save my anger and just shank them in the parking lot LMAO. Ok so I won't but I will definitely bide my time until someone kicks their butt. Hell I will probably instigate it. REALLY.
Now on another note since I'm a little perturbed , I love Bj with all my heart. I love his Dad and Step Mom, his best friend and his Mrs. They are all wonderful. Now the mom - in - law is different. I am a little upset at myself because I got very upset yesterday and could not contain it. I am never one to hold my tongue nor punches. I am the kind of person that will not pretend to be anyone I am not. Now the in law has been here for a couple of days and has managed to really get under the skin. I am trying my best not to blow up although I fear I'm still managing to let it out on him. Of course it isn't ok either because I don't want to argue with him about stuff that isn't his fault. However I kind of feel like I'm expected to hold it in and not say anything so as not to anger anyone else.... HOW?
Not only because of how I am feeling about things that have gone on, but more so because I dislike anyone putting him down. AND I definitely don't like anyone saying it to the boys either. Basically she is putting him down not only by telling him but then trying to make them less in their eyes. Who does that? This is your child and your grandchildren, how could you want to make them think that he is less of a man or that he's not good enough. I really hope that it gets better only I don't see it happening. I really don't think I can hold my tongue forever, and when we have another one, will she try to tell them those things too? Not on my watch. We will fight.
I am so proud of Bj, I am behind him 100% in all that he is taking on. Hell, I love going to wrestling with him. It's awesome, and to see him in the ring. He still ebats himself up about everything Life in general as well, and I really do know why. How do you reverse a lifetime of people telling you that you are not good enough?
We do not talk to our kids that way, we do not discourage them, nor tell them that they are dumb. Having 4 kids is not easy by any means and we have made some mistakes sure, but we are now and will always be better parents than our parents were. Sorry for the rant I think I feel a little better now that I have eaten something. I wish people would be different though but change doesn't always come.

Today is the day
So we start our journey today... the wonderfully long drive. I think that it will be exhausting but I am looking forward to having an actual vacation with my baby and the girls. Since it will be my first time actually seeing the ocean it will be awesome. Bj of course has seen it many times, but here in Texas all we have is a dirty coast and since I don't go anywhere.. well....
Anyway, Bj is looking forward to seeing his best friend, and his Dad. It is a lot for us to do in a week but I think we will be ok. Now it's just what to do with Skye ( Bj's dog ) lol. Not wanting Bj to be worried about her, even though she will be fine!!! Don't want our vacation to not be as great as it will be because he's worrying about how she is. Skye is kind of our other child though she is a pain in the butt, and even though he thinks I don't like her ( which is not the case). She does get on my nerves, and tear up my stuff, and he doesn't bathe her....yes procrastination. He has been saying for weeks...no months...that he is going to bathe her. Well i guess she will be getting bathed today because before she gets in the car for hours with me she will not be stinky... and that means her carrier too.
So..... we are about to start out tonight , of course in theory around 7pm or so to drive to get to my moms. This is considering that we get everything done so that we can go on time. we shall see...
Last night we were at training again, and Bj still beats himself up, and over analyzes stuff. He has moments where he's doing way better, and then if you tell him it's good, he still tries to analyze what he just did to try to do it the same way again. He's going to get it one day, we really need to get elbow and knee pads. My poor baby looks like the poster child for Band-aid. One day he will get it all together, he's learning stuff and of course I do too as I watch him. Although eventually I will start looking at matches the way they do critiquing and watching. I do think I found an anwer for his question abotu what he should be studying.
Not just the style because you really create your own style of wrestling, it's basically what works for you. It's how they sell, how and when they use the moves. What it looks like how it works. When good times are to use certain moves or when to use them. WHen it's too much, how the chains fit together. How it gets the crowd, how to pace yourself and not rush through. What you should be thinking in the ring is how do I want this to play out. Watching matches you can watch what people are doing, think about other ways it could have been done. How certain people work, how it looks. It's more for generating ideas as opposed to doing what they do. watching how the match works. Eddie is really great when it comes to putting matches together, and the ideas flow. It's awesome to watch. He knows how the crowds work, and how it should look. It's easy to wacth and see why do extra moves and break stride when you can easily work it another way. There is always a different angle.
Eddie training Bj is truely an awesome thing. Bj can learn so much from him.

Hump Day
Last night Bj was beating himself up again, not just literally. He is so very hard on himself, and he doesn't need to be. I worry that when I try to point out that it's okay to suck right now he doesn't realize that I don't mean it in a bad way at all. When the other guys get in the ring with Eddie he is watching and critiquing the moves they make. It's harder to have learned and been doing things a certain way and then have to be told to do them right.
The guys are there and they are re-learning stuff too. Bj has a clean slate he's learning from the ground up, the other guys have been doing it for a while and some things they can do and others they can't. Every single one of those guys had to go through the same thing.... I know my baby and I understand that there are certain things he just wants to do right. And him having watched other guys for so long and wanting to be in the ring is not going to make him an expert. He knows it's hard work, we can't jump from one day to the other and be perfect... well I can lol.
If you take a step and watch some guys in the ring... yes even in the WWE, and ROH... they still mess stuff up. So, it stands to realize that in this business there is no such thing as perfection... Even when you have it all down you can have off days and mess stuff up. The point is to get it into your head that you have to do everything over and over and over again until it's a knee jerk reaction to go this way or that way or to not protect your body as it falls to the mat.
The day will come when the brain takes a step back and allows the body to do what it's being trained to do. And one day he will be in the ring and it will not be so perfect, but he will let it roll of his shoulders and move on without punishing himself in the ring.
Bj will be there one day and he is reaching for his dreams he only has to realize that in this case you can walk to your dream instead of running, and it won't be lost. Not everything will come easy, he's learning this about life in general.... We all have hard times every one of us, life isn't sunshine and lollipops. We walk through fire and brimstone sometimes for those we love and to get through those rocky times we have to have faith and believe in ourselves and those who are standing there with us. I believe in him and I know that practice makes perfect! So I can't wait to see where he goes with everything. Can't wait to boo him when he walks down to the ring and make sure others boo him too LOL
