The job I have and the life I live....


I teach and coach at Putnam City West High School in Oklahoma City. The picture above are most of my volleyball girls. They are GREAT!! PC West is an interesting school, to say the least. Although not having a great tradition in athletics here lately, I have some really great kids. I coach volleyball, basketball, and golf (even though I am still learning the game of golf). I teach Algebra and that is an experience. My classes have been pretty decent so far. My volleyball team is young and we are still learning, but they are a lot of fun.

Coaching and teaching takes up almost all of my day everyday. I'm not complaining because I enjoy it, but I definitely don't have very much of a life AT ALL. One bad thing about coaching which may be the same in any career is that you can't please everyone. There is always someone wanting more playing time or thinking that they deserve a spot over someone else. I guess it's kinda that way in a lot of things in life, but it has been tough for me to know I can't please everyone. It sucks to have people mad at you when you are doing the best job you know how..... ahhhh... As my wonderful boyfriend would say, "Such is life!"
