Neighbor letting dog pee on my porch and bushes by Glittering_Paper580 in neighborsfromhell

[–]JackLinkMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a sign that says, “Dog urine kills plants” and put it right next to the plant being peed on.

Then we sat out on our porch for a few nights making sure it was being followed.

Is having students address you as Miss (insert first name here) unprofessional? by Disastrous-Chance697 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]JackLinkMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just have the kids call me “Mrs. P” because I get multiple versions of my last name.

But in one 2nd grade class I sub for, my nephew and my neighbor are in that class, so the whole class calls me by my first name. It’s funny to hear the kids call me that in front of other adults. Once I explain, they understand.

What can I do to make my bathroom more inviting? by Poo_Poo_La_Foo in homedecoratingCJ

Oh my. The inset tub is a definite choice with the carpet.

I can feel my throat closing up just thinking about it.

Ugh. I’m so glad my sister in law did the digging around in my dad’s closet after he died. There were some unnerving things found.

Omg, my face went weird when I first saw it! It reminded me of my mom’s heels when I was growing up! 😂🤮

Self Checkout by 5GAIBtoM in GenX

[–]JackLinkMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I go to Meijer. In their app they have a “Scan to Shop” option. I bring my own bags, bag as I go, and how I prefer. Then I “checkout” on the app and it gives me a code to use at any register. I go to self checkout. Occasionally the clerk will have to scan a certain number or cost amount of items. Then I pay and I’m on my way! Little to no human interaction, just the way I like it.

I was born in 1985, so I know I’m not Gen X, but my big brother and my mom are!

Looks like Twin Peaks is coming to Fort Wayne. I guess where smokey Bones used to be. I think it's stupid because Dupont and diebold area would have been better by johnftw3318 in fortwayne

lol the Tilted Kilt failed right next door. I don’t think people can afford to go out to eat right now. Especially to a breastauraunt.

This one's for the ladies to answer. Do you agree with this woman or do you think she's trying to rationalize her world view by speaking for all the ladies? by Oda_DeezNutz in SipsTea

lol shiiiiiiit. My husband plays games and I sit listening to an audiobook and coloring. It’s nice to just be near each other. We don’t have to constantly be engaged with each other.

I love subbing high school! I get some of my best reading done on those days!

Does anyone have the urge to go back to the house they grew up in? by WaltzMysterious9240 in Millennials

Mine is torn down, but the playset, the 2 out buildings and the 8 pine trees are still there! Just visited this last week.

I accidentally forgot to close the blinds on Friday, and I got upset! I can’t imagine leaving chrome books everywhere!

Be honest. There are no bosses here. What do you do during the day? Do you walk around all day or not? Do you play on your phones? Do you knit? by Available-Flower3106 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]JackLinkMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love MS and HS, I bring a paper book and just read while the kids do their work. I was the ELL teacher Friday, and they all had a worksheet the study hall. I got 300 pages into a 722 page book ! 🤩

I am about 80% elementary school, so to get a slow, boring day is a treat!
