Up and ready for work I pulled D in for a talk. I tried to explain to him how his bad choices were pilling up; baseball errors = not playing infield, back-talking L&I = no football games/activities with friends... Hope some of it sinks in... In to work and feeling like crap about the morning I had with D and all the recent news/changes at work... Out in the field after talking on the phone with a customer, look down and there's a feather... Tim was on his way out to see me and we talked quite a bit out there. He could tell I was upset and talked about raising his son, went through the same stuff... Later in the day before I left Tim stopped and talked about work which brought my spirit up, he said the changes I have brought have been felt by everyone in the building and I couldn't stop... This made me feel bit better in the midst of a crappy day.
Home and finally a night of nothing on the calendar. We all took a bike ride to Rita's for a treat and then stopped at the ball fields to see big head and others we knew. Home, the boys got hair cuts and then the boys and I hung out in the basement playing the xbox. After the boys went to bed my neighbor asked that I come down for a chat. Exhausted, I loaded up and went down to chat. NO SHIT?! he wanted to tell me that D was talking about his son at school and it bothered him enough that he had to talk about it with his parents... WHAT IS GOING ON???? I stayed there for a couple hours talking with them and them home completely defeated. Obviously I have done something horribly wrong in raising D... :-(
