Wish I knew how to help, bAbe, but I am singularly unqualified. 

Twenty years ago today, I got married. Nineteen years ago today, my wife threw me (and my parents) out of her hospital room, where she was recovering from a colectomy that morning. Tom got to stay, though. They're in Fort Worth now. Did I mention that it was my parents' anniversary too? That night, her poodle started walking into walls and foaming at the mouth, and I had to go back to the hospital at 3AM to tell her I was putting down her dog. 

(blows out)

I don't know. You find ways to make life meaningful to you. And it's my parents' 58th anniversary today. I should call them later.

Aaaand the hits keep on coming: Homeowner of our rental informed me yesterday they'll be putting the house back on the market at the end of our lease(end of June).  

So, now I get to not only feverishly try and find work, but I also get to start trying to find another place to live....without a job....and my wife still not working yet.

Maybe it's time to load up the car and drive into the middle of the desert until the gas runs out and just stop?  We can start a new life as dirt-footed, commune dwellers who run some kind of year round Burning Man thing.

Oof. 

We all need to start a phone tree.  Each of us will call another dude's boss(es)/spouse/caregiver with an emergency/excuse to leave  ASAP.  Then we all go to whatever bar is nearest, get hammered, and post from there.

Sure.  Little kicks, little touches.  Little kicks, little touches.  Dribbling a soccer ball doesn't take power.  But, power is good too, so teach him to kick with inside part of his foot.  The hammer.  Bring that hammer down!  Toe punches are for booger eating troglodytes who play football and look idiotic trying to kick.  Roll the ball to him and have him run up and murder that muther forker.  Blast the sweatshop labor right outta the ball.  Use both feet.  Know why American men suck at soccer?  They are weak at using both feet like my Mexican brethren.  Pass to him.  Pass back.  Quicker now.  Now move and pass.  Teach him to stop the ball, trap the ball, stop on a dime and then explode.  Teach him to dribble with his head up, head on a swivel, head looking where to pass. Oh, no headers anymore.  Took only one lawsuit for youth soccer to figure out concussions were bad news.  One day football might get it.

I'd just add, have him stand there and repeatedly alternate putting each foot on top of the ball.  At that age their hand-foot coordination and balance are relatively atrocious and this has helped Sammyinho a lot. 

Also let him watch the EPL Sat/Sun morning.  More than likely you'll want to kill him after 10 minutes and for the fact that he takes a liking to Chelsea since Willian has a tremendous fro:, but then you layer in that they use both their feet.  Plus it'll help teach geography and early morning slothness, both of which are in short supply.

Hand-foot?

 
On the good news front I'm now texting with an NFL starting WR. So I probably shouldn't tell him I've had him on my ff dynasty team for 2 years right?  That would definately not be cool probably.

Nah, I'm sure they love hearing about your fantasy football team just as much as the rest of us do.
