Howdy from the land of sweet fall breezes and rag weed sneezes!
I have said before I am quite a creature of habit and I am.I can eat tuna and cheese everyday at lunch for weeks---no problem. I will order the same dish at a particular restaurant every time I go there. I drive the same route and get gas at the same place even if another is shorter and cheaper because---that's where I always go.
Damn I hate to change and try something out of my box! It is after all MY BOX.
Well, I have blown that concept today and the more I think about it the more nervous I am getting.
Our local school district asks for tutor and mentor volunteers to work with kids that also volunteer to receive some help. I know what your thinking---I did not volunteer to be a spelling coach nor a computer teacher.I did ,however,volunteer to be a mentor.The school will give me a training class and then I will be assigned one student to meet with twice a month.I hope I don't do something terribly wrong.
What does this have to do with fat loss?? I don't know, but I figure maybe fat loss has something to do with me taking this step??

Hey Bill,
ReplyDeleteOut of the box sometimes is good. Mentoring should be a good fit because critical thinking skills are what kids are most lacking probably.
You don't really have to tell them anything but help them see things as they really are or a way to work things out.
You have more patience than I do but mentoring sounds like a good thing.
Thanks for the encouragement, new = nervous to me.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great thing you are doing, Bill! I volunteered for a while at a rural health clinic and found the experience very rewarding.
ReplyDeletePS: I've always felt that a better part of me was a cowboy :-)
IT IS VERY GOOD THING. You have great deal of wisdom,
ReplyDeleteexperience in life (is not learned in bookS). YOU
ARE A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR A YOUNG MAN.
This will help a kid. Think back to men who were examples
to you as young person.
Good for you!!!!!!
