:frank: Finally got around to add my 5 frankenstein smilies and two autumn tree smiles icons :tree-fall: to the site just for halloween , I kept forgetting to add them. :frank4: opps.

I’m looking forward to be finishing off my schooling in the new year. Just signed up for 4 more classes today so I can become a personal trainer It would be nice to work at a gym (or have my own business). But until then I’ll just use what I’ve learned for when I’m coaching. There are a few other university degrees that sound interesting but of course they are targeting teachers or they are more for tourist guides. Bleh. :frank3:

I’m not looking for a coaching gig that’s gonna offer me $100 an session/practice, (I’ve seen it happen). Why is it the coaches with the lack of coaching training/experience are always the one asking for more $$ when coaching? I see it as you coach, cause you LOVE the sport not about worrying on how much your making per session/practice. The two main teams I coach, I do it for free. Though I’m hoping to get a full time paying coaching gig, but I’m not gonna hold my breath. Then again I’m hoping the more training I have and my 14 years (soon 15years) of paddling |4 years of coaching has a better chance then someone who’s paddled for 2 and coached for a year.

Edit: Just calculated it out, I’m just shy of sending $60 to my local cancer research society to help find a cure for breast cancer. I know Comments for a Cause will be ending on Halloween but I just wanted to do an early thank you.

Earlier tonight, when I was making dinner for my mom and I. I caught myself mentioning could you pass me grammy’s stool. It’s been over two years since my both of my mom’s parents passed away and yet I still call all the heirlooms that I got from them theirs.

Bleh, I know it will take time before I can mentally thing those items are mine.
