Cheer Hard or Go Home
I’m not sure… I miss cheering. I miss coaching. I miss teaching. I miss the exercise and the fun and the exhilaration of competition. I miss stunting.
I just put all my pics and whatnot in my cube at my job and about half of them are from stunting/coaching. I miss that so much. I miss my kids and I miss my friends. For a long time, that’s who I was. Now… it’s becoming who I was and it’s less and less of who I AM.
Part of me wants to look into a coaching program in the area. Part of me wants to move on and do other stuff. I just don’t know if I have the time and energy… But I miss it.
Just so y’all know.
I miss my gym. I miss having a gym.
boo.

Geoff-
You have an amazing mate in Carley. Take care of her and your relationship!
You miss the gym, and teaching/coaching. I’d say you at heart are a teacher. Sure it’s the gym and the workout, but I see the light in your eyes when you talk about the kids who you helped “get it”- whether that’s stunting or life. I’ve seen how you want to help others do things for themselves, and your passion for excellence in educaton.
Maybe you should look into doing something more formal as education. Not necassarily as a school teacher, but even industrial education. You could be the software geek who teaches how to use stuff most effectively. Or driving. Or be a PE teacher…
The other thing is write- That allows you to express yourself and to affect a lot of people- and that’s education. Plus, you are a writer- so do it.
Love you both,
Dad (and Yvonne sends her love too!)

I have to agree with Dadoo. For one, that I’m amazing. Yup. For two, I see the teaching aspect in Geoff as well.
