Self Defense

Alice's husband, Gregg, taught our Young Women self defense today. He has been a police officer for 30 years.  He started talking to the girls about what they should not do.  Example, be out by yourself in the middle of the night.  He then showed them things they can do if they get in a horrible situation.  Gregg is really funny, so it was a great time. Although both Maysen and I cringed when he talked about gouging out eyeballs if it came down to it.

Maysen and I practiced one technique with each other.  I was the bad guy.  Maysen got pretty good after awhile.  I tried to show Stockton (who came in when his scouts was finished).  I was quite slow.  I told him, "Don't worry, I'm sure the bad guy will wait while I figure this out."
