Meet and Merry Christmas!

Heyy, so, today I am doing Christmas tree decorating at my Grandmas house! I am going over there when my dad gets home from work. He gets about 2 which means getting there at about 3, then tonight I am sleeping over. Since her house is an hour away from my house it is a long boring drive.

So, this weekend I am driving again to my grandma's house for my first meet of the season. I am kind of excited for the meet but I am really nervous about beam and my back handspring, I used to have it and it was close to high beam by myself but then it got worse and worse and now I am on the low-ish beam with a heavy spot and I am falling all over the place.

Last night I had gymnastics, vault was pretty good, my handspring is getting better. Floor was really good, my tumbling got so much better and my routine was really good. Then we went to beam and I had problems. I was doing my full turns and I couldn't land one, my back walkovers were not connected and really wobbly but I know when I get in front of the judge they will be fine. My back handsprings were horrible, I was getting a really big spot and I kept falling from bending my arms, one time I straddled the beam, it hurt really bad! So I am worried about that for the meet, I think I am going to have to do something else. I am scratching from bars because I really don't have anything but I am fine with that. So other than beam, I am ready for the meet this weekend!

Well, I should probably go and finish school and then get ready for my grandma's house.
