Old school football, please!

Pointless kick around today in the yard - two boys buddy up & hoof it down the far end of the park, again & again. Am I about to go fetch in this heat? We never did that when I was a kid. We made teams, world cup, walley, actually made goals etc. Added to that we never had a ball - tennis ball or a medium-sized stone...

Bubbles, slime, soap & colours outside. Choriso asked me to lead good morning (emphasis there on asked, as in given warning & time to prepare), and told kids to talk to me x3 times today. Nice idea!

Helped dismantle the pool & felt semi-useful. One girl dropped rice on the floor & stood there waiting for help. Choriso = 'think about it yourself & do something'. Good. Older girl Chiaki lent a hand. Nice life lesson.

Clean up, put on your shoes, see you later = 2:30 plan w/ Choriso; enjoyable work-mate who is going up all the time in my regard.
