T. went back to the orthopedist. His leg is healing nicely, but he isn't there yet. He will go back again the end of October. I hope he is able to wrestle this winter. He is so looking forward to it. He told me yesterday that he wished he could skip this year (senior year) and just go ahead and start his rat year at VMI. I remember feeling that way as a senior....my closest friends had graduated and I was so ready to move on. With his senior release this year 3rd period, he has an extra long lunch 3 times a week, so we go out once a week. I figure this is my last year with him really at home and I enjoy the time with him. Yesterday we went to an old restaurant and he got chicken fried steak and gravy with mashed potatoes and green beans...........(I was surprised).........he loved it and complained that I never make milk gravy and biscuits........who knew he liked that? I have really watched him mature this year and some of his gifts have become more apparent. He has organized his lacrosse team to play fall ball all by himself. They will scrimmmage every Saturday. It was so funny to watch him making about 20 guys run the other day............of course he couldn't run. He really seems to enjoy the leadership role and I am sure he will coach some day. All in all he is doing well, except the 5 million times a day he texts his girlfriend........and gets a whim he has to go see her.....in Vermont......immediately..........drives us crazy!
