Roblox, Terry Fox and a Pro D Day

Play

“They need to play” emphasis on “play”, I overhear my coworker say to another. I’m not sure the exact context and it’s not my conversation anyway. I have three peaceful kids in front of me and one who is about to shout, I can sense: I don’t know why. I brace myself to attend the shouting-style kid before I know why: and speak with a somewhat distracting agenda.

The sun is pleasant with a crisp feeling in the air, a sweater is enough to keep warm…although the light is bright enough to warrant a baseball cap. I take a deep breath and sink into the moment of being outside.

When I get home I feel happy. I felt supported taking new risks in my childcare job and I am grateful for that. I retrained by upgrading my skills after being quietly fired in my opinion (after a back strain and perhaps too many direct statements about employee rights to my supervisors that didn’t seem welcome). My credit rating is also improving coincidently.
