Charles's Story

Life No Pets! No Kids! No New Chopper and definitely not leathers to go with it. Just living in the DC Metro where I always dreamed of living so I could go to all of the Redskin Football games. Though I have tried to get out of the education field, I have finally gotten out of public school education sort of. I am the Deputy Director for a Private Company that contracts with District of Columbia School. My company places Title I teachers in private schools in DC. I am currently dating and it is purty serious. The parents have been met. The only thing that I have concerns about is she has lived in DC for 19 years and does not plan to leave. With my job and love both here, it looks like I will be here for a long, long time. My only regret is that my children will not grow up as Texans and that I might not get to be buried in Texas since I want to be buried next to my wife. At least I will request that they leave my boots on. Anyways, I do love it on the East Coast with so much to see and do, but miss the Southern Hospitality and the egotistical TEXAS ATTITUDE of DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS! Maryland is for Crabs? Virgina is for Lovers? What kind of State Slogans are these? Oh, the traffic and crime up here is beyond ridiculous. That's my story for now. Updated October 20th P.S. It turned out it was and is purty serious. The wedding is 28 June 2008. Updated Feb 11, 2008 The wedding plans are coming along fine. Less than two months away or it is legal to say it is next month. I kind of like the next month. I am more than ready. She has been worth waiting for. 28 June is still the date! Updated May 6, 2008 The June 28th wedding went on without a hitch except for me getting hitched. Our 10 day honeymoon to Prince Edward Island of Anne of Green Gables fame was fabulous. Now we are both enjoying the "happily ever after" part which the fairy tale books describe in such detail especially the bureaucratic parts where the government...Expand for more
s both federal and city get a piece of the wedding cake. Sorry, I digressed a little. Anyways, this is my story. Forty-six years to get married? For me, well worth the wait. This update is dedicated to my new bride. I love you Wanda! Updated July 15, 2008 New job- No, haven't moved to Texas(In Virginia. For me that is the DC Metro Trifecta - I have now taught in MD, DC and now VA), but I am back in the classroom teaching 3rd grade - so much for getting out of education - I definiteley tried. With my wife, I watched a movie called, "Five People You Meet in Heaven." This movie might explain why I cannot seem to get out of the education field. If you haven't seen it, it is worth renting or even buying. Four months of marriage and still living happily. Updated November 8, 2008 Celebrated our first wedding anniversary on june 28th. We took a 3 week vacation to Ontario, Canada (Wife's home province), Chicago, St.Louis and the Smoky Mountains. Over 3500 miles in driving. The trip was worth well worth it. Updated July 24, 2009 The Holidays were great. It started with the Great DC Blizzard of 2009 on December 19th. School was canceled early for Christmas Break. Went to Tavistock, Ontario, Canada to celebrate Christmas with my wife's family. Two years ago Christmas night, I proposed to Wanda. Hightlights about the trip besides sleep was seeing the Olympic torch come through tiny downtown Tavistock. Updated January 15, 2010 Friend me on facebook to see photos Updated April 11, 2010 Wow! It's been 6 years since I have posted here. Decided to renew because Classmates made me an offer I didn't want to refuse. Just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary and still at the same school, but have taught grades 2, 4 and 5 since Nov. 2008. Just got back from Canada, but seriously, I just explained all of this on FB. :) Anyway, thought it would be fun to read what I wrote 8 years ago and add a little update. Updated July 16, 2016
