Old Boys

My daughter and her son spent the week end here.  Gabe is two and is starting to use the potty now.  He goes to pre-school a couple of days a week and is among the youngest kids there.  The older boys use the potty so he wants to be like them.  This has accelerated his potty training. 

He is so full of life.  His feelings are so close to the surface.  Ninety percent happy, five percent unhappy and five percent processing information.  That may not be accurate but you get the idea.  He calls older men old boys.  So Grandpa is an old boy as is Uncle Jake.  We're all old boys.  When I was playing tennis with a bunch of older men a couple of years ago I would look at them and sometimes imagine what they looked like thirty or more years ago.  We really are old boys.

My wonderful daughter asked if I would use hypnosis to help her with a small problem she is grappling with.  I think she was at least partly giving me a chance to practice.  We talked about it and I wrote a script for her including a few suggestions.  I haven't been reviewing my hypnosis lessons, but it went pretty well.  Nothing vital was left out and none of the big no-no's were included. Thanks Emma.  Hope you are having a wonderful day.  Emma spent a great deal of time finding some possible accommodations for old-boy Jake.  She likes doing this and if there is a job in it, she would be very good at it.  It sounds something like what our old-boy friend Albin does in Germany.

Brooke has a new disciple in the coupon endeavor. Everyone likes saving money as long as it doesn't require too much time.  Brooke can show you how to find something in your comfort zone. 

 It was a nice week end.  Not without stress, but plenty of fun and it was nice to have the old family back together for a few days.
