    The walking dead amc #2

    I love this guy. He's my favorite thing about Mondays.

    The walking dead amc #2

    It's funny that you say "not scary" because while I think he pulls off the tough guy well (and I didn't notice him being slight, but maybe because he was puffed up by jackets :) ), I agree with you. I actually found the governor to be scarier, mostly because he was nuts and I never knew what he...

    The walking dead amc #2

    I thought this thread was dead because I stopped getting alerts! I would've come for moral support. I'm SO glad a friend at work told me her theory, because i was completely mentally prepared. I also knew it was Abraham all along, because they set him up for it in the finale. Hugging Eugene...

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    I've never officially measured or set timers either. I'm estimating. I guess I could collect some data on that over the next few weeks for you if you want. I'm really good at that now, since it's my #2 job! All I know is that some nights it's hours and others it's nothing (beyond my daily 30-40...

    Soarin'

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one who misses the original! I like the new one, but just not as much. Soarin is my husband's favorite ride, and he liked the new version better.

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    I have prep and lunch, but my bladder isn't trained to them this early in the school year. I have 2 babies. This makes for close calls. I can't leave my kids alone. If I need to go, I have to hope to find someone else who isn't responsible for kids to come take over. My prep time is a mad rush...

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    It definitely is hahaha. I didn't word it right. My kids are sick and I feel like I haven't slept in a week. I don't even know what I was going for. I guess that I don't crave appreciation, but I don't want constant bashing. It is NICE to be appreciated, but I can do my job without it. I'd be...

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    And my point is that most teachers aren't craving accolades, but hoping for someone to tell them that the hard work they are doing actually is making a difference. And it probably wouldn't even be necessary without all of the political nonsense. I think the appreciation stuff started around the...

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    I'd imagine the mailman doesn't complain about being underappreciated because every politician doesn't bash him in the news at every opportunity, blame him for a flawed system that he didn't create and has no control over, and make him obsessively collect data on his junk mail delivery to prove...

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    Some years we get lucky because of how Christmas/new years fall, but normally 12/24-1/2 We're hanging on to Columbus by a thread :rotfl:

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    I don't know what schools get those breaks but I want them! I get 1 week at Christmas, 2 days for Thanksgiving, 2 days in February, a week in April. 8 weeks in summer, 9 on a good snow year. Other holidays outside of those are usually Columbus day, veterans day, mlk, and memorial day. And that's...

    S/O frustrated teachers: what career do you WISH you had

    I'd teach PE. Same pay, same schedule, no take home bag.

    Elementary Education Teachers - Would you recommend your career to a young adult?

    I say for overall quality of life-no. Ask me again in summer though. Then it seems worth it. Right now it doesn't.

    First names you dislike

    My thoughts exactly. BUT I do get how some names are just annoying to people ;)

    First names you dislike

    The spelling they gave is closer to the "correct" one-Aaliyah. I would definitely pronounce your spelling as AH-lia. This is why I don't get hung up on spellings. People are always so obsessed with the "right" way to spell a name, but there aren't really any rules. Names come from different...

    Any adults-only experiences at the resorts?

    I can't even imagine a kid-free place anywhere outside of Disney that's not a bar! :) To be fair, I don't get out much

    princess race weekend-full resorts?

    Just found out we may need to make a change to our reservation. How full would the resorts be at this time if we tried to change to another? Probably moderate or value. Do things fill up this weekend? It's my first one. Thanks :)

    The Lion Guard

    I'm pretty sure this ended. It was already over by the summer time when we went. Unless they started it back up.
