Iβm here for this point! Only rich people had guest rooms when I was growing up. Every square foot of my house was used within an inch of its life. I was born in 1971.
Iβve been on here since 2017 and never had anything as exciting as

My daughter was hired at Walmart as a greeter (which was not a great placement for her for obvious reasons) and when a customer returned bolt cutters she commented βoh you must be a burglarβ. Mgmnt was not happy.

Bless you. Hugs. Hardest decision ever. I got chicken pox at 12 weeks and was faced with the same situationβ¦itβs so hard to process everything when youβre so scared for your baby, self and family.

What horrid behavior from Jill and Amber. Jill cries over killing a squirrel but steals sleeping bags and sabotages rafts? Better rules or please no season 2.

Imagine being that hateful. Imagine the trauma of the people in her life who have to manage her anger. Wishing them all some peace and a good therapist.

You do you, Boo. Some people canβt help but follow you for updates on sweet baby and then condemn you for the same thing theyβre following you for. Block and mute. The rest of us are here to support you.

Seriously?! Omg Beck I am so sorry. I donβt get it. I donβt even have time to go to the bathroom or make important calls Iβm so busy. How do people have so much TIME ON THEIR HANDS?!

I canβt focus. I cannot wait until 2pm. Iβm so nervous I want to run around like a dog w zoomies and then lay down in a lump and cry.

I was coming to say Findland. They also have certain requirements that if you donβt meet you canβt teach. They pick their teachers.

This is so silly. I canβt make my bank stay open longer. Lol. Schools close for the day, too. Iβve never thought about how many hours (thousands?) Iβve stayed after closing. Janet at the bank isnβt staying for you to cash a check at 7pm and no one would ever expect her to.
@GalvinAlmanza
I was just just π€ about this myself. Your reasoning is valid, but could it be that there is a faction who are so indoctrinated that they canβt, even in the midst of protests and prolific evidence, understand what is wrong with the status quo? Itβs why they speak in fallacies.

Student loan forgiveness has a lot of criteria, so therefore, according to your tweet about criteria for PPP loans being forgiven, student loans should be forgiven.
@DrTeresaSanders
I learned that certain accommodations implemented for the whole class made everyone a better student & helped me break down my lesson planning to make me a better teacher. Graphic organizers, read alouds, chunking, extensions (bc Iβm going to carry it around for 2weeks anyway).
Mr brain is spinning out of control; I have a new business concept, a school club idea, Iβm trying decide how to structure my book and I need to plan for the week. Iβm feeling energetically creative and reflective. Iβm struggling to apply that energy to teaching. Letβs go

Oh no Beck π . Maybe itβs just cold feet and nerves bc he leaves tomorrow? I donβt know if thereβs anyway to back out at this point. Hopefully someone on this bird has an answer. Sending you love, mama bear.

For the first time in my 19 years of teaching Iβve had a small group say horrible things about me and my teaching. Itβs so hurtful and hard to get over.

Reminds me of some of the anti-Semitic propaganda from WW2 - the octopus was used frequently. Not saying this is propaganda! Just that the use of the octopus reminded me of a poster that used to be in a textbook I used to teach World Literature.

Iβm so sorry. Are you ok? How can I help you? My mom was in a long term care facility and she kept complaining to me about her βhorribleβ roommate. I was there one evening when her roommate was atrocious & abusive to one of the aides. No one deserves to be treated that way.

@docs4fertility
I recently read an article that explained how a uterus is actually protective of the host; that a fertilized egg can attach anywhere with dire, deathly consequences. I never thought of the uterus that way-but growing another human is actually an aggressive, dangerous process.
Iβm reading The Measure by Nikki Erlick & am struck by the EB White included, βI arise in the morning turn between a desire to save the world & a desire to savor the world. That makes it hard to plan the dayβ. Each morning Iβll ask save or savor; that will be my manifestation.
@DrTeresaSanders
Yes. And how we educate these children needs to change. I had a class last year with 6 (HS) boys who struggled to behave and I spent most of the class keeping their pots from boiling over and completely destroying the entire 90 min class every day. Itβs a lot of work.

It took me years to gain back the confidence that my narcissistic boss stole from me. Never again. You can do it. Give yourself some time and grace.

Hubby just said he canβt believe heβs turned into that βold guyβ, I was distracted by the ehem costumes and my 21yo texted me βMODESTYβ. Really if I looked like them I would wear those βcostumesβ to ... well, everywhere.

DONβT LAUGH! My bedtime is somewhere around 8:15p.I get up around 6:15 and am on the way to work by 7:10. I have a mostly empty nest. Every night I say to my bed βHello, bed. Iβve thought about you all dayβ. Iβm 51. Iβve been teaching for 17yrs. Iβm. Just. Tired.

At this point in my cycle of low self-esteem & self-loathing I am convinced no one likes me, Iβm trash at my job and everything I do, including parenting, is at best mediocre. 6 months ago I was confident that I was great at my job, being a friend & mom. Idk what is wrong w me.

Every time I canβt get my electronic key to work I think Iβve been fired. In fact most days I think I could get fired. Itβs actually a pretty disturbing and toxic state of mind to work in.

@sydneycjensen
Or when you ask about a common student youβre struggling with and they say βheβs wonderful in my classβ. Classmates let you know that he is not, in fact, wonderful in her class.
I have a hard time not taking teaching personally. I have a rowdy class this semester & I have no impact - they talk over me, ignore me, make me wait for them to finish their conversations/texts before responding, walk around the room. 70% boys and I am a failure.

I actually think this is cleverβ¦however when something is clever and makes sense of course we canβt have it in our schools. We wanted those door stops or the security chains that hotels haveβ¦no can do-building Code always wins.

I like to start w βMy Nameβ from The House on Mango Street! Great voice, easy for the students to emulate style. They look up the meaning of their name, ask parents why they chose their name and it is a great low risk community builder (plus they learn each otherβs names lol).
@rlgriebe
Yes maβam. And one misperceived βslipβ and you end up fired (or on the news). Im a teacher and itβs the same. It bewilders me everyday. Weβre all on the same team, so why canβt we act like it?

Thatβs my biggest pet peeve. Donβt come in and tell James to take off his hat or reprimand him for his behavior in the cafeteria. Do that on your own dime, not mine.

Far more competitive. Less Education programs and fewer than 10% of applicants are accepted. Itβs really interesting how they do it.
