I don't like pizza. I am from england. I am a 4th grade art teacher. I enjoy books.
I like wings. I am from Boston, Massachusetts. I own a business consulting firm. I like my job. I have a girl.
My students went nuts yesterday and trashed the room! My goodness!  Teaching fourth grade can be tough.  Were there any consequences for the students for trashing the room? Yes, I sent them all home for the rest of the day and gave them all double homework that has to be complete tomorrow or they will get an F. They were not too happy but they have learned! I don't know how you do it.  Friday nights must be your best nights, I bet.  You get two days off to relax before going back again.  I'm speaking of Friday night, I can't wait for it to get here.  I'll be buying wings for my buddies and we'll be playing pool at home. That sounds like a great evening! Sometimes I wish I had a different job, how is it going with your consulting firm? Oh, we have our ups and downs.  Sometimes it's easy to find solutions for clients, but not always.  You know, perhaps you should try a summer job in another field.  It doesn't hurt to try. Yeah, I'm seriously thinking to do that. Just to see if maybe there is something else I'd rather do. In England there are quite a few possibilities.  Other than art, what else do you enjoy?  Have you ever taken any business courses?  Maybe you can spend some time with me at the firm over the summer and see if it's something you'd like to do. That would be great! Thanks! I haven't taken any business courses. I do enjoy books so maybe I could even work at the library this summer. How is your daughter doing by the way, how old is she now? That's right!  You really do enjoy books.  Perhaps you can do a volunteer program at the library over the summer and see how that goes.  My daughter is now 7 years old.  Can you believe it!  She's in second grade. Wow, seems like just yesterday she was a baby. That's incredible!  Yes, kids grow so fast.  Speaking of, have you come across any good parenting books?  I can sure use some advice on getting my daughter to be more independent.  Or you can give me some advice from your own experience as a teacher.
