I went to my favorite store today. Atwoods and they already had the trees and roses and seeds and oh my am I in HEAVEN :weee I am making my list of what I want and what I need, they should be the same right? :th I've been running all day and my animals are :somad at me. I will get to play with them tomorrow though. I think I will take the girls out and see how they do with guidance and a hook rather than the fence. I will post some pics tomorrow and introduce you to my clan listing is below.
I hope everyone had a really nice day today. OH, my first day is thursday, math in the HS. I need clothes. :barnie

I am tired and had a very long day . It started that I went and bought clothes last night for school good thing I did since TODAY was my first day. :celebrate :th :weee I subbed English and I know why and where the teachers have lost some control in the classrooms. The students use computers and internet to do some of their school work. They are allowed headphones so I know they are on youtube listening to music while they work or surfing the net. :barnie :duc I mean NO DISRESPECT to all the Teachers out there. I had to tell a few that the work needed to be done before the surfing. Yes, that part hasn't changed the kids still give dirty looks. :lol: They were for the most part really good kids. WE went and looked at the properties today, I think we are going to keep looking not sure yet. Stay tuned till tomorrow and will describe the land and house. I am off to bed I am beat. :hugs to all.

I couldn't be a teacher now...don't get me started on my opinion of today's kids.
I know every generation says the new one is bad, but I would never have imagined doing the things kids are not only allowed, but sometimes encouraged, to do by their parents. Ugh.

Hope your day's better tomorrow.

You are a brave person teaching school. My hats off to you and I thank you. It sounds like you actually want to teach. Not play around and be one of the "cool kids" all over again like a lot of teachers (and parents) I have met.

My little soap box: I think too many parents want to be their kids friend, expect the schools to raise their kids for them and then complain when the school does anything that doesn't make the kids happy. School is supposed to be fun! Who cares if they learn anything.

My friend teaches college and some of his students can barely write. The papers they turn in are either blatantly cut and pasted from the internet ( no flow, doesn't make sense, fonts change with every paragraph) or they seem to be written by an 8 year old. How these kids even get into college is beyond me. When he gives them C's, and they really deserve F's, they complain to the department head because they "tried". "Tried" being defined as showing up to most classes and turning in some of the assignments.

I am amazed daily by the things I hear and see . . . it's sad really that these kids will have no idea what it take to live in the real world.
