I NEVER CONSIDERED LAURA, DEVIN, OLIVIA, HALEY, TANNER, ETC ARE ALL GREAT INVESTMENTS.-- BUT THEY ARE... NOT ONLY FOR ME , BUT THE REST OF THE WORLD...
HERE IS ONE OF INGRID'S STROKES OF BRILLIANCE---
I UNDERSTAND YOUR PERSPECTIVE ABOUT THE LACK OF WORK ETHICS IN TODAY'S SOCIETY. BUT YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT THEY ARE MUCH HIGHER AT SDP THAN WHAT I OBSERVE REGULARLY ELSEWHERE. WE MUST KEEP FOCUSED ON TODAY'S YOUTH TO ENSURE THEY BECOME GOOD CARETAKERS OF TOMORROW'S WORLD. LAURA, DEVIN, OLIVIA, HALEY, TANNER, ETC ARE ALL GREAT INVESTMENTS.
SDP IS CERTAINLY A PLACE TO CHALLANGE KIDS-- WITH REAL LIFE PROBLEMS-- I REALLY RESENT ANY KID-( OR OLD KID) GIVING WAY TO SLOPPY THINKING.... AT LEAST WHEN IT IS POSSIBLE TO DO OTHERWISE...
CASE IN POINT TEH NEW BUILDING---AND TANNER IS A GOOD KID- ALSO A TEENAGER WITH WHAT COULD BE A LAZY HEAD IN THE REST OF THE WORLD... BUT IT IS NOT ALLOWED AROUND HERE.... I KNOW TANNER HAS HAD ENOUGH MATH TO DO SQUARE FOOTAGE.. BUT THAT IS STUFF YOU DO ON PAPER- AND I DON'T THINK HE EVER REALIZED IT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH REAL LIFE-- SO I ASKED HIM TO GO FIGURE OUT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE FLOOR AND THEN THE WALLS ( DIFFERENT PAINT STUFF)--- HE WENT AWAY-- AND ASKED RYAN WHO GAVE HIM THE WRONG ANSWER-- WHICH HE THEN PROUDLY CAME AND GAVE ME..I WAS EXTREMELY ANNOYED AND TOLD HIM HE COULD NOT DRIVE THE TRACTOR EVER AGAIN UNTIL HE FIGURED IT OUT AND GAVE ME THE RIGHT ANSWER.
HE WENT AWAY AGAIN ... AND CAME BACK WITH THE RIGHT ANSWER--- NOW... HE MAY HAVE DONE IT HIMSELF- BUT I KNOW HOW SIMPLE IT WOULD BE FOR JACK TO HAVE TOLD HIM WHAT TO WRITE DOWN... SO I WILL KEEP AT HIM---YOU HAVE A HEAD... DARN IT USE IT. I THINK HIS FATHER IS IN AGREEMENT WITH THE EXERCISE...
A WHILE AGO I WAS ONTO "ANSWER THE QUESTION"-- MUST HAVE BEEN DURING THE POLITICA L FIASCO... WHEN I ASK "IS IT RAINING"
SOMEBODY SITTING ON THE FLOOR IN THE KITCHEN MIGHT SAY " YES OR NO"- WHICH HAS NO BASIS IN FACT... ANYONE WHO SAYS "YES TEH COMPUTER SAYS SO" HAS EVEN LESS FACTUAL INFO...---SOMEONE WHO SAYS
"YES- THE DOG WHO JUST CAME IN'S BACK IS WET" HAS FACT... I CAN DEAL WITH THAT.
*****
WE MUST ALLOW SERVICE DOG TO BE A PLACE WHERE OUR KIDS CAN APPLY THE BITS OF WHAT SCHOOLS TEACH ...--APPRENTICESHIP HAS MANY VIRTUES CLASSROOMS WILL NEVER HAVE.
THE PROBLEM IS TOO COMPLICATED TO FIGURE OUT... I DO KNOW THAT 4-H AND FAMILY FARMING PROVIDE GOOD WORKERS IN GENERAL.. IN MY MAGAZINE BUSINESS I ALWYS HIRED KIDS WITH HORSES-- THEY DON'T STOP BECAUSE OF A SILLY BLIZZARD...
*****
COMPLICATONS ARE HAPPENING HERE.... RUNNING
