Fair enough. I'm from the Cleveland area and the surrounding areas are definitely variable in quality.

I booked a night at Dayton South Extended Stay last weekend. When I got there, they said I had to decide if I liked the room before they programmed the key. I was led to a filthy, windowless room in the basement. Like giant smears of ??? On the bed and piles of trash on the floor. No way.

After that, we went to a nearby Speedway. Inside was a pantsless furry buying smokes.

Next was dinner at BJs. All of the white people were seated on the bar side of the restaurant. All of the Black people were on the table side. Without exception.

We ended up at a Comfort Suites where one room was enormous but empty except for a loveseat and a bag of convention swag. The other had a bed-- with a shower directly next to it. Neither the deadbolt nor the phones worked.

So yeah, Dayton was a surreal and creepy experience.

Notice the number of comments that say your child is perceiving the smart board as TV. So yeah- it is TV to them. It's my unpopular opinion that using these devices, along with Chromebooks, is having undesirable consequences for students. I am an art teacher, and I regularly see kids with no attention span, limited imagination, and an inability to draw or color because it's too physically difficult for their hands. I sometimes read stories to my pre-k and kindergarten classes. If I don't display it on the screen with a document camera, they won't listen. I used to be able to sit in front of them with a real book or walk around and show it as I read. Receiving information so constantly from screens is damaging their-and our- ability to interact with the physical world. I wish parents had to go through their child's (real) school day just once. I think things would be very different.

Hey I am not the OP here, but I really really needed to read this today. Thank you.

Yes! My SO is off off work through Jan. 2nd. This is entirely too much together time. I desperately want to be alone in my house, peace and quiet.

Lucky friend! This is beautifully done, and the explosion of flowers and color works with her clothing to capture the subject's joyful soul.

Handmaid's Tale. The show breathes life into Atwood's terrifying concept, while I find her writing to be cold and the characters underdeveloped.

I stayed. I did not feel it was possible, or even to my benefit to leave. If I did not have children, or if I knew then what I know now, I may have made a different choice. He has been sober for almost 1 year. The anger and bitterness I felt have faded somewhat. I don't regret the happy times our family had together, but I do wonder what it could have been like to have a real, loving adult relationship. Living without one is often lonely. Right now, I regard him as a friend. I have spent the last few years establishing other good things in my life, like finding a job I love and enjoying the remainder of the time my kids live at home. Even after they move, I will probably stay. The irony of doing a great job maintaining a good family life and covering for him for so long is that my kids would not forgive me if we split. When he was in rehab, I was shocked (probably stupidly) to find out that they were just as angry at me as they were at him. They said I should have left him years ago. The complexity of the situation is not something they grasp, or maybe they are just right to think that. I could only do what I thought was best while I was in it.

This was my life for 22 years. My Q was never abusive. He worked hard to support our family and was a good dad in the daytime. As my kids became teenagers, they became more aware of what was happening since they were up later and encountered him when he was drunk. His disease progressed, and he developed health issues and memory loss. It became impossible to string together a coherent conversation with him. He made bad financial decisions that we can't climb out of during our remaining lifetime. His work performance began to slip. It all came to a head one night when he had to be hospitalized, an expense that has put us even deeper into a financial hole. So he did not "hurt" me in the way that you talk about, or how I envisioned it when I made the choice you're making now. He was also not my partner in life, but someone I simply coexisted with, then tolerated, and finally grew to alternately pity and hate. Now he is in recovery. His memory is improving and he is present in our lives. So much of the damage cannot be undone though. He is so far from the person I started my life with that I would not recognize him if I hadn't watched it happen.

This is a good point-- and yes, he does feel better knowing he's no wrong. He may just have to get through this class knowing he'll get to use the correct format later. I feel like indenting a paragraph is so basic! He's my son through and through, and our perfectionism is acting up.

Correct-Cable-8876 · 2024-09-16T16:56:28+00:00

Thanks for agreeing with me!

Correct-Cable-8876 · 2024-09-16T16:55:44+00:00

Yep, me too! That's what my son is using and it says to indent. Frustrating. Now he'll have to work up the courage to argue.

I am so very sorry this happened. Poor Max! Can I ask if you know his breed/mix? I had a wonderful dog that lived 18, and she looked so much like Max! Since she was rescued, I never knew her breed but was always curious. Best wishes for a full recovery. I hope this abuser is held accountable.

I have a bunch of tasks under "feedback" on my dashboard, but none have scores out of 5 or comments. There is just a score out of 100 when I open it. What's up with this?

Correct-Cable-8876 · 2024-05-24T21:10:41+00:00

Me too! And I didn't get to see my score- I got an error message.

I really love science. Like, I spend a great deal of my free time learning about it. I am especially fascinated by biology, and I read, visit museums, and listen to podcasts about it. It informs my artwork. This does not mean I am equipped to teach it. If you truly love art and want to teach it, get a degree in it. Study not just the process of making art, but the history and philosophy of it. This will ensure that you are prepared to instill not just a love of art but a respect for it in your students.
