The Bradley Girl's School was a private school for girls. One September Wednesday, a teacher suddenly quit her post there, and the Girls' school found it hard to find someone that would work there. The school was kind of strict on the teachers because they were worried about the kids that went there. Therefore, teachers had to be able to stay with their classes the whole day, even during lunch, and even when their kids go to specials, the new teacher would need to teach PE. If the teachers had to use the bathroom, they had to call for assistance from the office, and then wait for someone to watch the class for them so they could do so, and so had to be able to hold it up to an hour at times. The teachers were also responsible for taking their classes on learning but relaxation days at least once a month, sometimes, the trips continuing for two days, where the kids would come back to school and go home for the night, but then come to school only to be carted off where they were the day before.... The school had a lot of money for its programs because it was a charter school, and the charters were trying to see if kids might learn better through natural experiences rather than just being at one building all the time. Susan Myers got tired of the substitutes seeming to leave the PE classes with no cohesion, and she was tired of the third graders getting a different substitute teacher every two or three days, so she finally did something she probably shouldn't have. She reached out to her old friend who had been in the Army before. If anyone knew about physical fitness, it would be an old Army grunt, right? So Susan called her old friend, and she knew he was between employment at the moment anyway. "Listen, ___________, I know you are looking for work, unless you found something?" "You haven't? Great. I have a position that really needs filled badly. If you just report to work on Monday, I'll fill you in on the details. Please come to the Bradley Girls' School at six on Monday. Normally, you don't need to be there until 7:30, but I need to fill you in on a lot of stuff before the students get there. We can do a trial, and if you like the job, and it looks like the kids are doing better than with substitute after substitute, then you'll be hired full on with benefits? Is that okay with you?" It was nearing the middle October, and the class was supposed to have an upcoming trip to a candy factory and a little Halloween theme haunted house experience at the end of the month, and Susan really hoped to get the class used to one teacher before that, because third graders would likely need someone they trust if they got scared from the haunted house....

Hello my fellow mummies, daddies and babies I finally became brave enough to buy and try Huggies Little Swimmers As a slim boy I am size 6 fits me quite comfortably. And they are soooo cute! ~~;; There are two designs: Finding Nemo and Winnie the Pooh. I like the 2nd one more But there was only one way to test drive these babies. I had to go to a swimming pool, while wearing them Obviously I had to get 'older boys' swimming boxers to cover my nappy (diaper) but I knew what I'm really wearing. I went to "kind of" water park - which had a proper swimming pool, a fun swimming pool (not deep, with waves and gadgets for teens), a baby swimming pool and 3 types of spa. Obviously I didn't go to baby swimming pool as it would be really awkward but I did go to teens swimming pool and spend some time there. Whole place was quite empty so all of 3 safety guards were watching me quite heavily. I didn't manage to use my nappies yet. While no one would notice my nappy unless they would look really carefully when I left the pool I started dripping more than I should It was quite embarrassing but I don't think that anyone suspected anything unusual ;D Then I went to a steam sauna. Oh boy, it happened! I just had to let go So I did wet my Little Swimmer quite a bit. Then I realized that while my nappy would not absorb much of pee it would not let it go outside easily. It was a really unique feeling, especially when I came back to a swimming pool. I knew that I'm wet outside but that was only regular water but I was also wet inside. Huggies made swimming diapers so they wouldn't absorb much liquid so they don't get bulky but at the same time they were doing amazing job by preventing your pee from mixing with normal water. I knew because after another 40 minutes when I went to a changing room (no pun intended ) I could still see my urine inside and that white core which changed colour to yellow Overall: Excellent experience. I'm amazed how sturdy the tapes were. After 1.5 hour of swimming they were immaculate. Even better - they are resealable. I think system which is being used on there is one of the best if not the best in industry. I'm surprised that regular nappies are not using the same technology. Also when you wet them you WILL feel wet. Unlike regular nappy there is nothing that would make your skin think that you're dry Similar to having wet underpants, except that outside is waterproof. So for all of you lucky slim babies- try them. And lastly: here is my picture wearing one today I wet it while I was typing this message. They feel so good. Not very absorbent though Cover them with regular nappy and you will feel wet all the time
