Answer You - Mama's Going To Kill The Swimming Instructor
Direct Answers - Column for the week of March 31, 2003I don't drive and have health problems. I have a friend who runs an under-the-table errand service. She is one of my closest friends so I rely on her. I always give her sufficient money for her time, and she has helped me out in many situations.There have been two times in a row where she has blown me off. Both times she was to take me to a doctor appointment. The first time she did not c

The number one thing you can do to have a great marriage is such a simple concept but it’s really something that is hard for most people to implement.

There I was standing at the edge of the pool screaming as I watched this scrawny young man drag my eight year old daughter to the middle of an Olympic size pool and say one word, “SWIM!” Had he lost his mind? Didn’t he know that I was sending my children to him to learn, and his only instruction was “SWIM?” Yes, I did say children, because my four year old was to be his next victim. I couldn’t handle this scene, what on earth would he do with my four year old? Would he simply say “SWIM!”
The young man seemed totally unconcerned that I was ranting, raving and pointing at him. Helplessly, I watched my daughter bobble up and down in the water, grabbing for him. Each time she grabbed, he would float further back and yell “SWIM!” She was in a horrified panic and I was ready to dive when the gentle hand of my husband tugged on me. His touch said, it’s okay. I turned around, glancing at him. I could see the same questions in his eyes, but he had an inner assurance that eluded me. But then, that is how our relationship is, I am fire and he is ice. So I trusted in his cool composure, allowing his calmness to put out the flame.

MATERIALS Thatching makes use of materials that are naturally available - grass or reed. The stalks of thatching grass are normally hollow and about 3 mm thick. Dekriet stalks, however, are solid and about 3-4 mm thick. The quality of the material improves with cultivation and regular cutting.

When I turned again, I saw the most amazing thing. My daughter was actually swimming! Awkwardly paddling a few feet at a time, she struggled to keep her head above water. She was gasping for air, still looking afraid, but swimming. The rhythmic tone of the young man yelled, “SWIM, SWIM, SWIM!”
My mind flashed back to many times of unfruitful swimming lessons. I remembered how kind the instructors were. Each day they would tell me things they taught. Yet, they never learned to swim. This day in “Boot Camp” a triumph was made. Maybe my four year old was not going to be a victim after all.
I was relieved. That young man had not lost his mind. My perspective was wrong. What appeared to be a cruel strategy was a well executed plan for success. Finally, stroke by stroke my daughter reached the other side. Victorious! My husband and I were elated, but we had one more session to endure that day. What would he do with my son?
He beckoned my son. He pointed to the slide. Great, he’s not going to put him in the middle of the deep. Then reality hit, the slide dumps into 12 feet of water, my daughter had only been terrorized by 10 feet! I desperately fought the urge to get up and yell, bit my lip and held my breath as I watched my four year old make the ascent of this huge twisting and twirling water slide. The instructor floated over and commanded my son to slide, and paddle to the wall. He plunged into the water in a flash. I gasped, but in an instant second later, I saw his head pop
