Spent an afternoon of joy here earlier this week when I went to visit my bestie in Athens, Georgia. Entangled is in Watkinsville and a great place for kitty snuggles!

Also, my guess is that she doesn't actually depend on that money in any way.

Overheard in the hallway (said in absolute seriousness): "What are you taking speech [class] for? You already freakin' know how to talk."

Sitting in meetings listening to coworkers I know are staunch Republicans bitching about the new graduation requirements being put in place floors me. I just want to scream, "this is what you voted for!" Who do they think is making these changes in Indiana?

If you support abolishing the Dept of Ed and letting states take over, keep in mind that those federal policies help support and maintain special education programs. In a state like Indiana that is actively trying to destroy public ed, this will be devastating to our most vulnerable kids.

Yes! It's only fair! Plus, I grew up in "the region," so I can speak fluent Chicagoian

Thanks...day by day!

This is truly terrifying..

No! I'm in Indianapolis...I know Indiana is in the name, but we don't really fit in with the rest of this state!

I have no words for how awful this is.

Love that we have an amazing pastry chef who does fun pop ups at our favorite local coffee shop! Lulu's Coffee and Bakehouse and Beurre_Sec are the best!

Not just cockroaches, the super huge hissing ones that I'm pretty sure can bring down the entire planet if they tried!

So, she's been with the USDA for 22 years, which means she's been through multiple presidential elections, including Trump's first, but now she's suddenly politically biased and harming the country?

We got a message today from the principal that corporation administration have talked to our lawyer and are putting together procedures to follow the laws and protect our students. It is scary.

But that's the entire point...to intimidate those who are not wealthy and white. It's racism at its finest.

It's official! We paid the deposit...my son will be a Boilermaker next year!

I get it.

It's all so upsetting

Feeling extra tired and sore on my second day back at work after fracturing my rib...so I totally Door Dashed Culver's to school!

Well, I made it a full day teaching with a fractured rib and a smidge of a collapsed lung. It was rough, and I am tired but thankful for great students who helped me out. Worried I wasn't gonna make it when I had to sneeze on the way into school. That was a new level of pain!

He is such a horrible, disgrace of a humane being who clearly lacks empathy for anyone not exactly like him.

It really is. I wish the horrors could be unleashed on us a bit slower

Waiting and hoping to get a spot on an EF Educator tour. I really want to use my points to go to Portugal!

Yeah, I get that

Well, it's official, I have a fractured rib and a minimally collapsed lung. When I fall, I go all in and do it with gusto! Despite being at an all-inclusive resort, I was absolutely sober. It was the hotel slippers on the marble floor that did me in.

Did I have to run through the Houston airport? Sure did. Did I maintain my streak of never missing s flight? You bet!

For the record, I was NOT the one that booked the connecting international flight with only an hour layover--which was partially eaten up by de-icing!

Scary!

Yesterday a colleague brought in donuts and a student brought me a king sized Caramello bar. That's a pretty good Friday!

So much of this current legislation absolutely sickens me.

If parenting my daughter has taught me anything, it's that I could never be a math teacher. It's not that I can't do the math...it's that I cannot get her to understand how to break the problems into steps to solve.
