Best doggos deserve all the treats!

Whelp. I broke my temporary crown! It doesn’t hurt much luckily, but I’m going to try to go back in on Monday to get it fixed!

Don’t get lost!!! I got lost on my way to Fork Shoals Elementary one time. I had to pull over and pull out the GPS!

Going in to get a crown on my tooth today. Not super excited about this. I hate the dentist.

Why do they always do observations with the worst classes?!!

No, I don’t think so. I think it’s a new house thing.

No idea. But it’s part of my daily routine now!

Yes, I know I’m a weirdo. I can’t NOT think weird things once they get settled in my brain. It’s just how I am. (4/4)

I always think about this when I’m taking my daily meds and I can’t NOT think about it. In my brain, each pill is a person waiting to be taken to The Island. Every day I pick a new “winner”. But little do they know that The Island isn’t real and they are destined to be eaten. #weirdthoughts (3/?)

The reason I think about this movie every single day is because of the premise that the people get chosen from the facility to go to The Island. The choosing is random and once the person is gone they are never seen or heard from again… (2/?) #weirdthoughts

I’m going to tell you something weird about me. Have you ever seen the 2005 movie The Island starring Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson? The weird thing is, is that I think about this movie every single day. Was it a great movie? Not really. Did I love it? Also not really. #weirdthoughts (1/?)

I love block printing! So satisfying!

I thought to myself “I should go put a ruler on the back deck to see how much it’s going to snow!” Chat, I do not have a back deck anymore thanks to the hurricane! Glad I remembered before I tried to walk out there and fall 10 feet!

😱🤯🤣

And it also doesn’t help that I somehow bought decaf coffee instead of regular. 😫

Sooooooo sleepy this morning. Ugh. #narcolepsy

Yeah, I’m going to have to figure out something like that with this class. They couldn’t care less about our school wide behavior program.

And it’s terrible that now they’re going to have a negative association with the police, but they are doing and encouraging things that put other kids in danger. One example is, once they were throwing sharpened pencils at each other and seeing who would flinch first. They wouldn’t stop.

I agree, but there are kids who handle these changes pretty well and those who do not. My son was never a problem as far as attitude and pushing boundaries goes. These kids are pushing boundaries to the extent that they’re getting the school resource officer called on them.

Hoping she gets some rest and relief soon!

*if* you live in a state with a union. We’re in a southern non-union state.

Agreed.

Some people don’t have the luxury of just quitting. Loss of income and insurance can be a big motivator to stay in a bad situation. It sucks but sometimes you have to sacrifice your mental health until you’re in a better position to get a better job.

My school only goes up to 5th.

I taught middle school for one year. I’m amazed I made it through that year at all. I definitely quit at the end of the year though.

Our admin isn’t too bad about doing that. Not with the older grades anyway. Once I call admin they usually stop misbehaving because they know they’re about to get some strong consequences.

Agreed!
