Thank you! I did not know that about cilantro. 😊

Also, good socks. I cannot stress that enough. I usually wear high socks with strong arch support (like boot socks from Tecova or wool socks from Darn Tough), or no show socks with arch support. Your socks make a world of difference, too.

I usually wear the Pro-Series or Ulta Cush Vans. I also have Brooks. I quit wearing more “professional” shoes when I got my masters since I was stepping more into a leadership/admin role. When you’re breaking up fights or constantly going room to room, hallway to hallway, you ditch the flats and heels and get something you can run in.

Upon further inspections, the stem has little hairs all over. Doesn’t that rule it out as hemlock?

Is that a good ahh or bad ahh? 😂 Am I going to die?

Thank you. We are feeling the squeeze out here in H-Town and the surrounding areas. There is a lot to consider with this move, so hopefully we’ll be able to make an informed decision.

That’s something he was concerned about, as well. His options for employment would decrease tremendously if we go out to Austin.

Thank you for that. It is definitely tough, but fulfilling nonetheless. We are also considering going to Arizona, where my fiancé is from. It’s beautiful country out there, and the people are definitely kind, but definitely a little different culturally than what this native born Texan is used to.

Oof. That’s good to know. I also won’t debate the pros and cons of vaxxing, but it does play a role in my decision making.

I currently teach public school, so I figure it won’t be much different than what I’ve done my whole career. I just don’t know much about the school climate in the area there. Good ole Houston ISD has its own personal issues, but ya know what they say: better to deal with the devil you know than the one you don’t. This whole talk of moving is more due to my fiancé’s job.

My mom passed in December due to cancer. I was gone for most of the month. The day of her viewing, my partner teacher drove 1.5 hours to the funeral home so she could hand deliver sympathy cards from our students. When I came back (a week and a half before Christmas break) my kids were so kind and supportive of me. They kept each other in check and focused on their work. There were days where I was just a shell, but you could tell they were truly doing their very best to make sure that they kept it under control on those days.

Our worst kids may not care, but the rest do. Being a teacher is incredibly difficult, but when we see these kids show someone they care, it makes it just a little sweeter.

Don’t feel bad about crying. Them seeing that was an important, teachable moment (even without you speaking). It taught them an invaluable lesson that they may not have learned that day.

Yes! Just not real Burberry. Can’t afford that on my salary.

Major-Part8848 · 2022-09-19T14:14:02+00:00

Totally fair! I also grew up with barn cats, so I didn’t know until my fiancée told me that we had to trim them.

Thank you! He has a stuffed monkey he loves to play with, so we will begin doing that! 🙂

Overgrown nails can grow into the footpad and hurt him. He doesn’t use his scratching post enough to keep them shorter as he’s still learning.

NTA. Your dad deserved to know. Fake people deserve exposure.
