Stressed about my dad and his wife. Hopefully their situation will work itself out. Wish there was more I could do to help.
Iâm speechless and disgusted.
Seven boxes arrived from Austin today, full of items I picked out from my parentsâ house. They all have special meaning to me. Iâm surprised how sad I am, though.
Again
I feel better. Iâve done all I can do to mend this rift â and I donât even know the cause of the rift to begin with. Time will tell.
Iâm glad someone has the sense to look out for our students, faculty and staff. Thank you!
Character. Yours is lacking. I really canât believe you are blaming her for your poor choices.
I truly stink at waiting.
Because I canât say this anywhere else lest I lose my rep as a serious, politically minded individual âŠ
The Sex and the City reboot looks horrible. Why do I need to see these women age when I can look in the mirror if Iâm dying to see an aging woman? And they finally have a black friend? But one whoâs as light as she can be? No disrespect to Nicole Ari Parker intended, just sayinâ âŠ
Not a popular viewpoint, but I donât get the histrionics about dropping your kid off at college. There is no prize for whomever can cry the most/be the saddest.
Likewise, the fact that I did not cry at drop off seven years ago doesnât make me âbetterâ than you, but it also doesnât make me a lousy parent or indicate that I am not close to our ds because I didnât. I do know youâre struggling, so I shall keep my tearless drop-off history to myself.
Sheâs going to be just fine.
Karma, itâs about time you got here.
Thank God I never have to go through that again.
Thankful to county council and state Supreme Court that cleared the way for mask mandate as school starts. D is 3rd grade teacher. School starts tomorrow for students. Of course tonight she got notice that a student in her classes is quarantined. Already.
How about we throw out the numbers reporting for a change and just focus on the human and empathetic aspects.
To the unvaxed ( was âresearching) teacher who contracted Covid mid July, hospitalized, air lifted to another hospital, put on a ventilator ( now off)- no, I will not contribute to your go fund me âŠ.I wish you well but your choice, your consequences.
I am so done with summer and the heat and humidityâŠ
I hope you find a way to make it successful.
I know youâre stressed.
Youâve been so successful so far - youâve got this.
My sweet doggie.
The moment I picked you up and peeked in the carrier you were mine and I was yours. You of the sparkling eyes and button nose. The little tail. The sonar ear. Hedgie and schnoodely doodeley. You were my best friend and baby. Your spot next to me will never be filled.
Well this week I have officially launched my gap year, Class of 2025 college freshman! While I certainly will miss her, itâs such an exciting time that I can be nothing but excited for her. While sad to see her go, I know she is in good hands and will have an amazing 4 years.
Wow, what a difficult process. We ended up not selecting any of the three candidates and are sticking with our interim executive director. Iâm hoping she decides to stay on permanently. The candidates paled in comparison to her.
