That's funny I replied to this post before but it didn't post. Oops
Anyway to recap. Everything is still the same in the R. Everything seems very good. I don't know what that heading up the hill thing was about but it was short lived. We went to dinner last night and stayed out late. Shouldn't have but it was fun. we become accustomed to 3 hour dinners on the weekends.
BJ, I was thinking about you and your black eye. I was just wondering what you were going to tell them. I'm sure they have a hard enough time figuring you out anyway.
I teach a lot of problem children too. But I have an advantage. They think I'll beat them :-)
Taught a 16 year old gangster type last week. All the gangster clothes and attitude. Really threw him when I firmly made him remove his bling bling. I have a skill in converting those types. I throw them around a little on the mat but I also show that I care. You'd be amazed how I can change their attitude. The grandmother was ecstatic when the boy left with his pants pulled up (normally their half off gangster style) and standing up straight. Too bad he had to go back to juvy for a bit. but we'll be seeing him afterwards. It's funny my wife and the other students love to peek around the corner when I handle a student like that. They laugh for hours.
When I look around and see some of the ones that started off that way and are now clean wholesome kids. That's when I feel truly successful.
I gotta tell you watching my wife strut around in tight jeans yesterday was hard. She is so hot it drives me wild. Damn I hope she gets in my bed soon.
