my little space case is leaving. the fam has decided to up and move to montreal. (i would dearly love to be able to pick up and move to a new city - or country - just because i decided to. this seems to be quite the trend around the gyms lately. one of kate and janie's kids, who they've been training since she was three, went to australia for vacation over christmas, and her parents liked it so much they just decided to move there. must be nice.)
i wish my brat would move instead. i'd give anything to convince that family to pack up and move. move to montreal, move to australia, move to the freaking moon. maybe in space the pouting wouldn't be quite as noticeable. she did sit out today when she was told, and didn't speak a word until i told her to get back in line if she was finished sulking. small things should not be such big improvements.
pet eliza's mother and i are trying to convince her to come back. she's an aggressive little beast, very well suited for things like soccer and hockey, which she apparantly kicks much (older, boy) ass at, so we're fighting not to lose her. i just want to keep her because i'm selfish and i could teach her some really great skills, and her mom wants her to continue because of the conditioning factor. we're trying to convince her by way of telling her how much tumbling she'll get to do next year. that seemed to win her over, because she wants to do power tumbling when she's old enough, but i guess we'll wait and see.
thennnnn ... i get another email from kate.
'i know you said you weren't available, but i thought i'd give you a list of programs i need coaches for just in case you change your mind or your schedule.'
she then proceeds to list every single program in the club.
pick of the litter, goddamn it. i could literally walk into tryouts next week and pick any freaking group (and probably any kid) i wanted. and the times are perfect, exactly the way i wanted her to schedule them TWO YEARS AGO. WHY NOW?!
so, i have some things to consider. again. when i just finished considering them three weeks ago.
*sigh*
