No, you haven't. Unless it's posted elsewhere and I haven't seen it.

I can't remember if I did or not but it is kinda funny. I needed to take an extra class in college to keep my health insurance because I was a credit short for full time status. I could chose between pottery (gag me-not my style) or taekwando (a bit more my taste and sounded fun).
I was awful. I mean I am uncoordinated and lack control so even though I could do some of the moves and whatever, it was not pretty.
One day, I get paired up with DH to practice a move---just practice it, not ACTUALLY do it. I go to do this leg swing kick thing and NAILED him in the lip, busted it open, blood all over. I felt horrible. And he asked me out of course, sensing some guilt advantage....I said maybe another time, lol.
A week or so later, we were paired again and in rehearsing a throwing maneuver, I accidentally stomped his big toe really hard (again, not actually supposed to be making contact, just going through the move to get a feel for it), and he had just had an ingrown toenail removed. Blood and pain.
"Wanna go get some dinner?" How could I say no. At our wedding, his best man told everyone it was lave at first kick to the head.

Love your story. My DH and I met in college too, we were lab partners in Chemistry. We used to argue over whether or not the scales were balanced. That should have been a warning of things to come. Guess I should be glad we weren't in a taekwondo class together. That could have been literally painful.
The barn is gorgeous. Is there hay stored above those runs? If so, how do you get it up there?

The storage loft is mostly going to be for stuff we don't need all of the time and I plan to keep hay on pallets on the ground floor. But for getting up there, we do need to make way to get up there easier. Not sure yet.

The barn is so wonderful! Your hubby must be a glutton for punishment.
